JCB prescription safety eyewear flying off the shelves

Specsavers Corporate Eyecare say 16,000 JCB safety frames have been dispensed in three months

SPECSAVERS Corporate Eyecare say that in the three months since the launch of their new range of JCB prescription safety eyewear, some 16,000 frames have already been dispensed.

Jim Lythgow, director of strategic alliances at Specsavers Corporate Eyecare, commented: ‘We knew the new JCB range was great from both a safety and an aesthetic point of view, but we did not expect them to be flying off the shelves at quite this rate.’

The teams in Specsavers stores across the UK have had to work hard to meet the demand for the new stylish range of prescription safety eyewear, as each set of frames is professionally fitted for each individual wearer, to ensure a safe and comfortable fit.

‘Comments from customers suggest that it is the modern styling of the JCB safety frames that is making them so popular,’ explained Mr Lythgow.

‘Employers and safety managers recognize that while they require hard-working safety eyewear, finding something that is also aesthetically pleasing helps to ensure that the PPE is actually worn.

‘Feedback has also suggested that the wide range of styles and individual fitting results in great comfort.’

Specsavers Corporate Eyecare, manufacture all of their frames and lenses, for everyday glasses and safety eyewear, in house. This means they have been able to keep up with the high demand while continuing to ensure that quality is maintained.
