On October 11, 2026, Cape Town-based David Green Eyewear announced the launch of two new reader collections: The Traveller and Off-U-Go. These ranges are designed to be available exclusively through selected optometrists worldwide. According to EyeSmart, The Traveller collection features the Journey frame, which is characterized by a compact 20 mm folded profile. This development marks a strategic expansion for the eyewear brand, focusing on specialized distribution channels rather than general retail. The announcement highlights the company's intent to cater to specific consumer needs through professional optical partners. While the report details the physical attributes of The Traveller's Journey frame, it does not provide further specifications or pricing information for either collection at this time. The move suggests a continued emphasis on niche market positioning for David Green Eyewear within the global optical industry.

    David Green Eyewear Announces The Traveller and Off-U-Go Reader Ranges for Optometrists

    Cape Town-based David Green Eyewear announced two reader collections, The Traveller and Off-U-Go, available through selected optometrists worldwide. The Traveller features the Journey frame with a 20 mm folded profile and protective case. Off-U-Go includes four shapes: James, Christie, Ernest, and Fleming. Three of these frames offer blue-light protection, while Fleming remains a regular reader option. The company states its coating provides 35 per cent blue-light filtration without heavy yellow tinting, though it notes this does not replace correct reading strength or screen breaks. Available strengths range from plano to +3.50, allowing non-prescription patients to access blue-light lenses. Both ranges utilize optical-standard metal hinges.
