The kids’ eyewear market is seeing significant growth. According to a recent report by Future Market Insights, this growth is fueled by a rising awareness of children’s vision health, increased screen time, and a growing interest in personalized, fashionable eyewear. As this generation of kids grows, their voices and experiences will shape eyewear style.
In this special kids’ theme issue of Eyecare Business, we zero in on the unique blend of fashion, function, and forward-thinking retail strategies shaping kids’ eyewear and the optical space.
