Hobie® Eyewear, a leading brand in premium sunglasses, would like to draw your focus to World Sight Day, scheduled for Thursday, October 10, 2024. The annual event, dedicated to highlighting global eye health issues and the necessity of accessible, high-quality eye care, allows individuals and organizations to unite and underscore the significance of proactive measures to protect and maintain vision.
“We are proud to help shine a light on the critical issues of eye safety and eye health being advanced by this global effort,” says Dylan Coates, Hobie® Eyewear’s Marketing Manager. “We encourage everyone to join the conversation about eye safety and health this World Sight Day and to take proactive steps to protect their vision. It truly is an important cause.”
Indeed, it is. Over 1.1 billion people worldwide experience vision loss, primarily because they lack nearby access to home eye health services when needed. This staggering statistic highlights the importance of prioritizing eye health and increasing accessibility to eye care services worldwide.
The International Agency for the Prevention of Blindness (@IAPB) encourages employers to standardize eye health initiatives and promote eye health habits that will benefit millions of employees’ well-being, safety, and productivity. #WorldSightDay highlights the positive impact eye care can have on education, economic productivity, and safety.

“By raising awareness about the importance of eye health and supporting initiatives like World Sight Day,” explains Coates, “we can each make a difference in the lives of millions who suffer from vision impairment due to lack of access to suitable eye care.”
To that end, Hobie® Eyewear is committed to providing superior eyewear that enhances your style while protecting your eyes. “It’s important to have eyewear that’s both high-quality and right for you,” continues Coates. “That’s why Hobie® Eyewear offers a wide variety of stylish, smartly designed, and competitively priced choices for those who love the outdoors lifestyle.”
Consider Hobie® Eyewear’s DUO Collection, for example. It’s the next step for those requiring prescription (Rx) glasses but want to safeguard their eyes further by adding polarized protection to the equation. The collection includes three classic, stylish frame designs that vary in shape and size. These glasses are ideal for people who spend significant amounts of time indoors and require prescription glasses but also spend their free time outdoors fishing, hiking, biking, boating, or enjoying other fun activities.
DUO Collection glasses use strong magnetic clips to attach premium polarized lenses to comfortable and stylish frames. The connection makes the two layers virtually undetectable and includes an integrated hook for added security. They easily attach in a snap.
Pro angler Carl Jocumsen is a big fan of the DUO collection. “Hobie® Eyewear is always ahead of the game, so they offer prescription glasses with interchangeable polarized lens tints at a fraction of what it costs for prescription polarized lenses,” says the enthusiastic Aussie with seven top 20 Bassmaster Elite finishes to his credit. “Making the change takes only seconds – so you’re ready to go at a moment’s notice.”
That’s what it’s all about, concludes Coates. “They’re easy, fast, and you’re saving hundreds of dollars with the DUO Collection solution. They’re your everyday glasses and every polarized sunglass lens option you need – all in one! They exemplify Hobie® Eyewear’s goal to make access to the best lenses available to everyone. In short, they are part of our commitment to eye health, eye safety, and providing a crystal-clear vision that enhances life’s adventures.”
