LESSON from Lafont

Luxuriating with eyewear is a unique experience. With its dual role of being a want AND a necessity, glasses stand apart from other product experiences. In part that is in the nature of its stand with quality. And there is also the confidence of its take on independence. Yet even eyewear sworn to fashion brand allegiance bears character often beyond the brand’s identity. The fact is that both consumers and retailers know luxury eyewear by the element of style born with quality. The specs are exquisite. The attitude is classic, timeless and yet future forward. The creators are dedicated to those demanding norms. They are the Opti Mystics. This is eyewear fulfilling dreams and delivering ultimate insight. Luxuriate. Feast. Fulfill the vision.
