ClearVision Optical expands its children’s offerings with the launch of Dilli Dalli, a six-piece collection of pediatric eyewear designed specifically for infants and toddlers ages 3 months to 3 years. Frames feature durable IntelliFlex multi-action spring hinges, which allow the frames to flex horizontally and vertically. Cable and skull temples are available on all frames, and select styles feature a unifit bridge. Shapes can accommodate multifocal lenses. Frame names are inspired by youthful nicknames such as Munchkin and Sprout.

We tried products on all types of children because fit is crucial. By capitalizing on our experience and knowledge in pediatric eyewear design, we feel we have created an innovative brand that meets the needs of parents and children.”

INSIGHT
ClearVision says its goal in naming the brand was to develop a name that signifies youthfulness, yet conveys a sense of security, trust and comfort. Dilli Dalli achieves this goal. It sounds young, fun and friendly, and the goofy style of the Dilli Dalli bird provides a visual cue to consumers.
