Lindberg Air Titanium Rim. People love the lightweight and durablity. The Femke style for women is such a cute shape! We sold the Betsey Johnson Foxy sun the minute we got it in. Great shape and love the Oil color! — Nick S., Frisco, TX
The Garrett Leight Boon, which is their top seller. It’s a unisex frame and fits very comfortably. In sun, the Mr. Leight Hanalei in Chandelier Platinum with a Gray Polarized lens. — Sohini P., Orlando, FL
Rodenstock eyeglasses and Porsche Design in both. — Chris C., Oskaloosa, IA

RAEN, Coco Song, Outspoken, Marc Jacobs, and Neurolens. We use the phrase: “Try 3; its Free!” We pick three outside the box of the patient and create the “Pretty Woman” or “hotMALE” experience. Everyone looks hot in sunglasses and a cowboy hat! Neurolens has helped so many of our patients with binocular vision issues. — Karen M., Wyoming, MN
