Eyewear Market Growth & Trends
Popular customized eyewear includes photochromic glasses and glasses with high index numbers to eliminate UV radiation. The technological developments in lens-making technology and the availability of 3D printing technology for eyewear manufacturing allow market players to gain a strategic advantage.
For instance, in February 2023, Innovative Eyewear, Inc. launched its newest collection, Lyte 2.0. By combining fashionable frames with cutting-edge technologies like open audio, voice control, and app integrations, the Lyte 2.0 range aims to offer customers a distinctive fusion of style and utility. Users can experience high-quality audio and use the internet with Lyte 2.0, allowing them to stay connected to the world.
The market is being strongly influenced by the collaboration of digital channels with the eyewear value chain, which has exponentially increased the sales of eyewear products. As the e-commerce distribution channel is gaining momentum, several eyewear companies have leveraged it as an opportunity to offer features like product virtualization and virtual facial analysis to their customers. Investing in digital channels helps companies maintain crucial consumer data such as buying preferences, feedback, and search history. This enables companies to offer specific products to their customers in the future.
Another important factor changing the market dynamics is the increased emphasis on sustainability among eyewear companies. They have started offering eyewear made of eco-friendly materials to practice sustainable development while enhancing customer experience. For instance, in August 2022, Zenni launched ReMakes, a new sustainable eyewear collection made with 100% certified recycled post-consumer plastic.
The initiative was aimed at supporting the Wyland Foundation's purpose of promoting, protecting, and preserving the world's seas, waterways, and marine life. Moreover, companies are also applying different materials, including wood, leather, paper, and wool, to develop eyewear with innovative textures, which is expected to attract a more extensive customer base in the coming years.
