Sally has been wearing glasses since she was 4 years old. Here she is wearing an early pair of glasses. She recalls they were ‘not very nice, and not the ones I wanted to choose.’ These days she has a wider choice, here is her latest pick.

Frame: Vanni 6805T colour

Lens: Hoya Mystyle Profile Modern progressive, 1.67 index material with BlueCoat

This is your first Vanni frame.

Sally: It is an eye catching range. I love the comfort and the soft light look.

Do you prefer acetate frames (with no nosepads)?

Sally: I do have several pairs in my current eyewear ‘wardrobe’ with nose pads, but acetate frames are just more comfortable.

Your prescription is quite different between your two eyes, making the progressive design very important. How does the Mystyle Profile go?

Sally: My vision felt so clear and natural in these lenses from the moment I put them on. In fact I called the team at Hoya to report back how much I like the Profile lens design.

How do you find the BlueCoat?

Sally: Really restful for screen work and everyday wear.

Here is a little background on Vanni eyewear: “Made in Italy for sure, from Italian materials 100%!! Vanni is true Italian optical craftsmanship. Its all about colour and style and finishing. From Turin, Vanni eyeglasses that have been setting a style, an elegance since 1990. It is Italian fashion and style but its a look that is equally at home in Warkworth as it is in Milan. Sophisticated and intelligent, yet thoughtful and political, introverted and precious, quite serious, never boring.” A very apt description!
