Children’s eyewear specialist Zoobug has launched its new sunglass collection in creative colour combos. The new styles include mirror lenses, striped acetates, classical tortoise, wood grain effects and bright neon colours. Certain iconic shapes, such as Daisy and Sunny, have been revisited, and the aviator shape makes a return in Mediterranean tones. http://www.zoobug.com/
A test conducted by researchers at the University of California, San Francisco, shows that the Google Glass device creates a blind spot in the wearer’s peripheral vision.
The researchers tested three wearers. They compared their findings to tests using the Google Glass, then with ordinary glasses of similar colour and similar temples.
The results of all three participants show that the device creates a blind spot, causing a significant visual obstruction in the upper right quadrant.
Also, analysis of the photos of 132 wearers shows that people tend to place the Google Glass device near or above their pupillary axis, which can cause blind spots and interfere with vision.

The first edition of the Silmo Istanbul trade show will be held December 11–14, 2014.
In 2013, the first edition of Istanbul Optik Fuari was a success: 10,000 m2 of exhibition, 92 exhibitors, 400 represented brands and 12,850 visitors.
Given this success, Silmo organizers, in partnership with the 24 Saat Ajans agency and Comexposium, hope to be the “flagship Eurasian trade fair, ideally located in Istanbul.”
With annual growth of almost 10%, the optics and eyewear market in Turkey is exhibiting a dynamism and potential that promises fantastic development opportunities for companies within the sector.
Benefiting from the experience of the Silmo brand, this new trade fair will extend from the countries bordering Turkey in the Near and Middle East as far as East Africa.
