Las Vegas, NV – Eyewear visionaries are set to gather next week at International Vision Expo West for an early glimpse at designer styles and cutting edge lens designs. Fashion meets function at the top eyecare event for the Americas, held September 14-17 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Over 100 new fashion brands will debut fall lines, accessories and new eyewear trends throughout Vision Expo’s high-end fashion pavilions—the Eyewear & Accessories pavilion, The Galleria and The Suites—including Luxottica, Marchon, Safilo, De Rigo REM, Clearvision, Kenmark, Zyloware, LaFont, Pro Design, Ogi, Robert Marc, Oliver Peoples, Mykita, Lindberg and Sama, to name a few. With over 90% of ODs and Opticians reporting that Vision Expo is a good source to find the latest trends in eyewear, attendees will want to search online for the full listing of new exhibitors. Hundreds of new products and show specials are also listed online and on the official mobile app.
Not to be missed, all exhibit hall lounges will host a Visionaries champagne toast on Thursday, September 16 and Friday, September 17 from 4:30-6:00pm. With a special appearance from eyewear designers and DJs Coco and Breezy at the Thursday event in The Galleria Lounge, these champagne toasts celebrate Think About Your Eyes’ campaign success in raising awareness of the importance of annual eye exams and resulting in nearly 1 million additional eye exams in 2015.
In addition to The Galleria Lounge—which displays a new look this year—a new Eyewear & Accessories and Learning Lounge has been added, complete with charging stations, WiFi hotspots, rest areas and access to beverages. The full show map is now available, with the lounges located at the following:
