Some stories aren’t just worn. They’re carried.
A line. A curve. A symbol that holds generations of meaning, shaped long before it ever became a frame.
AYA Eyewear was built on that idea. Not just design, but storytelling. Through the work of renowned First Nations artist Corrine Hunt, each piece reflects a living culture, one that continues to evolve while staying deeply rooted in heritage.
Inspired by her Komoyue and Tlingit ancestry, Corrine’s art moves between past and present. Clean, intentional lines that say more with less. Like poetry you can see, and now, wear.
Behind it all is a vision that started with heart. Founder Carla D’Angelo created Claudia Alan with a purpose beyond eyewear. To give back, to tell meaningful stories, and to build something that connects people, culture, and impact.
So when someone puts on an AYA frame, it’s not just about style.
It’s about wearing something that stands for something.

MIDO is where that idea comes alive.
It’s not just a show. It’s the pace, the pressure, the energy that doesn’t let you sleep. It’s walking floor after floor, discovering what’s next before the rest of the world catches up. New collections. New technology. New ideas taking shape in real time.
It’s reconnecting with people who’ve been part of your journey for decades, and meeting the ones who will shape what comes next.
MIDO is instinct. It’s risk. It’s knowing what will work before it ever hits your shelves.
And when you step into a space like that, you don’t just wear glasses.
You wear the pair.
The one that stands out. The one that speaks before you do. The one that belongs in a room built on vision.

A shift many clinicians are already seeing in practice.
Today’s patients aren’t just asking how well they can see, but how their vision choices fit into their daily lives.
Understanding that difference is where stronger patient relationships and better outcomes begin.

Academy Award winning actor Adrien Brody knows a thing or two about standout performances.
If there were an Oscar for eyewear, the L4012 might be in the running.
For SS26, Lacoste delivers a clean, geometric frame with just enough edge — lightweight, refined, and quietly confident.
