jonas paul eyewear :: kids glasses with function and style

Shopping for children’s eyewear is not for the faint of heart.  Both of my older children wear glasses and my son’s prescription changes about every 3 months, so we’ve had our fair share of comparison shopping, failed attempts at ordering glasses online, and disappointment at the selection out there for kids.  The last time we left the optical store, my son was in tears.  Glasses are something he has to wear every minute of every day.  He wants to love them!  We were so thrilled {for so many reasons} to find Jonas Paul Eyewear.  Melding style with function, the kids glasses at Jonas Paul are a step above other glasses we’ve found.  You’re not going to find cartoon characters here –just classic styles and colors that let your child’s personality show through.

Jonas Paul Eyewear was created after Ben and Laura Harrison’s son Jonas was born with a rare eye disease called Peter’s Anomaly.  After fighting for his life, Jonas has endured many surgeries and his sight is severely limited.  The Harrison’s have turned their son’s disability into hope and soon started Jonas Paul Eyewear.  Watch their beautiful story here.

My favorite part about ordering from Jonas Paul is the free home try-on kit.  It’s nearly impossible to know how glasses are going to fit when you order online–especially for kids.  Jonas Paul makes it easy by sending a kit right to you.  I ordered the small kit since my son just turned seven and he was able to try on the six styles available and make a selection.  I took a picture of him in the glasses and then he was able to look through and decide what he liked.  We even posted a few on Facebook to ask for help making the decision!   We had seven days to try out the glasses and make a decision {and there is free shipping and return shipping–so it really is FREE}!  One pair seemed a little big for his small face, but he was happy with the rest and finally decided on The Jonas in tortoise.  I know I’m his mom, but these glasses are SO cute on him!  He’s thrilled and that makes me thrilled!  Did I mention that frames plus prescription lenses start at just $99?

Jonas Paul Eyewear does more than just help kids feel confident and stylish in their glasses.  They also support CBM International through their Buy Sight, Give Sight program.  For every pair of Jonas Paul frames purchased, a donation is made to bring vision to a person in need through corrective lenses or surgery.  Jonas Paul Eyewear is helping share sight with those who need it most.
