Every notion starts with a problem. Ours was very simple: glasses are too expensive. We were students when one of us broke his glasses on a Trekking. The cost of buying them was too high and we were amazed at how hard it was to find a pair of great frames that didn’t leave our wallets bare. Where were the options? It turns out there was a simple explanation. The eyewear industry is dominated by a single company in India that has been able to keep prices artificially high while reaping huge profits from consumers who have no other options. We started Eyewearlabs to create an alternative.
