PHILOSOPHY:
“As we know from research, the kids’ market continues to grow. In fact, some optical shops specialize only in children,” says Kelly Kim, The Lens Work president and CEO. “Our goal as a company is to meet both the vision and style needs of this evolving segment of the market. The Tiny2 collection with its ultra-light, safe, durable, hypoallergenic properties and the versatility of its colors will perfectly serve the kids’ market.”
MARKETING:
The basic Tiny2 prescription package includes a frame, single-vision polycarbonate lenses with AR coating, hand-edge polish and laser etching of a kid’s favorite character and hard case. A one-time warranty on the lenses, guaranteed under any circumstances within a year from the date of purchase, is offered. A six-place presentation kit is available.
