Canadian company
launches custom
3-D printed frames
Toronto-based Specsy has announced
the launch of its technology-driven 3-D
printed custom eyewear line.
The company provides eye care
professionals with a retail-ready app
to design custom glasses tailored to
their patient's aesthetic preferences
and technical requirements.
The Specsy app uses augmented reality,
allowing patients to design frames on a
live image of their face. Eye care profes-
sionals can use Specsy's patent-pending
measurement tool to verify all dimen-
sions of the patient's custom frames,
including bridge and temples.
By crafting every pair of frames to order,
based on the patient's design and
dimensions, Specsy provides eye care
professionals with the opportunity to
offer a truly custom frame, the
company says.
