I remember when I was in grade school, glasses were usually only for the nerdy kids. In high school, it was all about contact lenses; you never knew who used them for the colored-contacts or for the actual necessity. Personally, as a life-long wearer of glasses, I've always tried to find the least "old-man" style of frames possible. I actually had Lasik done when I was 20 but my vision was so bad, I had to get glasses again when I was 23. I don't mind though, I LOVE my glasses.

Nowadays there are so many companies and designers making frames to fit our modern-day style. No more giant-nerd glasses, no more "coke-bottle" lenses; now we can wear our glasses as an accessory, whether they are a necessity or not.

Check out these handsome frames from California-based Raen Optics. They offer a variety of both prescription frames and sunglasses. For more info, visit their website RaenOptics.com.
