This month's Frame of the Month comes from one of our favourite houses, Lafont of Paris. πŸ‘“
Lafont has been a family business since 1923 β€” four generations now, still handmade in France, and still doing what they do, beautifully. We've a soft spot for a frame with that kind of story behind it. (Three generations here in Sligo ourselves since 1935. 😊)
The LapΓ©rouse is a favourite of ours β€” not just for its comfort and delicate silhouette, but for the way the colour pops without overwhelming. Understated, but with real character β€” the kind of frame that quietly enhances your look. It also comes in a more traditional tortoiseshell and in lighter tones, so there's a version to suit most tastes.
Pop in and try it on. There's nothing like seeing how a frame actually sits on you.

You've probably heard of the 20-20-20 rule. Take a break from the screen every 20 minutes and look away into the distance (20ft or more) for at least 20seconds (or two minutes if you heard it from me). This relaxes the focusing muscles and refreshes the tears.
Recent studies are finding that we need to get up and spend more time away from the screen. 20 minutes goes fast and most of us blow straight past it without noticing.
What your eyes (and your neck and back) actually need is a proper break.
What we'd suggest instead:
πŸ‘οΈ Every hour, step away from your screen for a few minutes
🚢 Get up, move around, look out a window
πŸ’§ Let your eyes β€” and your body β€” actually reset
Your body wasn't designed to sit still and stare at a screen for hours. Neither were your eyes.
If you're still struggling with tired, dry or uncomfortable eyes despite taking breaks, come in and see us β€” there's usually something we can do.
