May is Derby season in Kentucky and we always sell a lot of sunglasses! Kate Spade was the winner. Ladies couldn’t get enough of the fun colors to match their Derby outfits and hats. Christina Byrn, VisionFirst, Louisville, KY 

Brooklyn Spectacles’ The Wanderer and The Thinker were hot movers. Great styles, great value! Brian Finley, Island Opticians LLC, Palm Beach, FL

Tiffany & Co. Our patient base has been asking for a new high-end line and we gave it to them. We had to put in a reorder within 30 days! It’s been amazing to see how well this line has done. Josh Bladh, Dr. Bladh OD, Diamond Bar, CA

Rx Oakley sun sales are up and Saks Fifth Ave for women. I had a more mature female sun audience this month. Jennifer Leuzzi, Mill Creek Optical, Dansville, NY 

Spy is always a great selling sunglass line for us. The styles are not too out there and the price point is very patient friendly. Amy Pelak, ProView Eye Care Optometry, Corona, CA

The Alder by 141. The ultem material is just so flexible, durable, and light weight, put it in black and it’s a no-brainer for a lot of people. The Angara with the sun clip by MODO/Eco in the purple and tortoise has been a huge hit. What’s better than a polarized clip that matches your frame?
