✨ The night that worlds collided ✨

The London Nuance Launch was so much more than just a product unveiling — it was a groundbreaking collaboration that brought together hundreds of specialists from both optometry and audiology. The atmosphere was electric, and the passion for innovation truly hair-raising! ⚡️

The potential of these glasses to transform lives is beyond what we could ever have imagined. We were incredibly honoured to be invited to take the stage (Lynne and Jackie) as key opinion leaders for optometry, representing The Optical People. We are one of UK’s most successful practices since Nuance became available and we are so grateful to our wonderful patients who have taken the leap of faith into this cutting edge tech 👓💫

We are so thankful for the opportunity, completely inspired by the future of vision and hearing, and — most importantly — unbelievably moved by the incredible feedback from our patients whose lives have been changed by this technology. ❤️

Training just hit a whole new level 😎
We spent the morning diving into the Oakley Meta Vanguard — smart eyewear that tracks your stats, plays your tunes, reads your messages, and even records wildlife and sunsets completely hands-free… all while looking seriously epic.
Built for those who never slow down- sweat-proof, seamless, and next-level smart. Definitely one for the Christmas list!
