The optical arena has seen a positive upsurge in sustainability initiatives over the past decade, as more manufacturers and designers are opting to source and use eco-friendly materials and practices to create optical and sunwear options for consumers seeking to reduce their ecological footprint. Without sacrificing quality and style, sustainable frames are an easy way to go green.
To honor these new strides in the industry, 20/20 has curated a wide selection of eyewear styles that all feature sustainability components. From the use of bio-based and environmentally safe materials, biodegradable demo lenses and even recyclable packaging materials, each one of these frames represents eyewear’s road to sustainability.
