Children’s EyeWear
For over 30 years, a Danish optician by the name of Paul-Jörn Lindberg, has been working on a frame design that could both include light weight and at the same time be the strongest frame in the world.
In 1987 he introduced the first eyeglass frame that did not contain any screws and called it Lindberg Eyewear. Lindberg Eyewear was a titanium wire which was turned in such a way that it not only created the most light weight children’s eyeglass frame but also the strongest.
Mr. Lindberg has received much recognition at international optical trade shows for his design and it is considered to be one of Denmark’s best designs for children along with the famous Lego brick.
Most parents, who have children that need to wear glasses early in their lives, are unaware of the fact that a traditional children eyeglass frame made of steel, weighs around 0,06% of the child’s weight. Lindberg Kid children eyeglass frame is six times lighter and only weighs around 0,01% of the child’s weight.
An eyeglass frame made of steel for an adult is only 2 gr. heavier then a child’s eyeglass frame by the same type. Therefore the eyeglass frame for the adult should weigh around 45 gr., if the same should apply for both the adult and the child. It is doubtful that an adult would agree to wear such a heavy eyeglass frame. It isn’t fair to make children wear much heavier eyeglass frames then adults do.
Mr. Lindberg wants to send a message to parents with his production saying that nothing is good enough for our children. The goal is always to provide them with a safe and comfortable environment and the same applies when choosing an eyeglass frame.
If a motorcycle helmet is placed on a child’s head, it will not stand its weight. The same can be said if a child is handed a brief case made for an adult. Children have an amazing ability to adapt and after a short period of time they will carry the weight that we, as adults, unconsciously will have them carry. This is not something we would appreciate for ourselves.
Lindberg Kid titanium eyeglass frames come with a 3 year guarantee which is unique in the industry and proves its amazing strength. Lindberg Eyewear Rim is made for all age groups where adults are the largest group of customers.
