3D-Printed Eyeglasses Plan To Disrupt The Industry

We’ve been wearing glasses since high school, and a lot of us here at Nerd News Social have a lot of glasses users. The prices can really add up, especially in a whole family full of visually impaired people.

To that end, Breezm is trying to change the way we look toward glasses by introducing 3D-printing into the mix. Founded in South Korea, Breezm, as part of Coptiq Co., wants to offer their users an “Intelligent Fit” for their eyeglasses, and they do that by making the glasses custom specifically to the wearer. How do they do that? Well besides specifically 3D-printing the eyewear, they use 3D-scanning to find the future wearer’s face size and head shape to make an impressive eyewear experience.

I for one have worn a pair of glasses that were not designed for how far back my earlobes rest on my head. It was not comfortable. Apparently, I am not alone, as 60% of the population suffer the same misfortune of misfit eyewear. No face was ever designed as a ‘one-size-fits-all’ when glasses were created. They just average to the closest to fit the masses.

This isn’t just a bland pair of glasses that just happen to fit your face, Breezm provides 40 eyewear designs (Some out of this world), 15 different colors and 9 different temple designs to fit your fashion needs.

Their eventual goal is their developing mobile application, which will allow USA customers to scan their own faces, eliminating the need for a location, and order their 3D-printed eyewear online. The 3D-printing will create a customized and comfortable product, that is lightweight and durable. The glasses will then arrive at the customer’s within 2-3 weeks.

When they become available, they plan to have prices starting around . They aren’t here yet but are planning a pop-up experience in the USA in mid to late 2021. To keep yourself appraised of when they are coming to the states, head over to Breezm site, to find out more about this awesome company.
