Spotlight on 🔦 Prodesign

The STITCH concept takes a step forward with two new shapes that add more personality and presence to the collection. STITCH 4 is a unisex blend between round and panto — an easy-to-wear shape that suits a wide variety of faces.

Meanwhile, STITCH 5 introduces a feminine silhouette with a softly curved top balanced by a trapezoid base, made for wearers who want subtle elegance with a touch of strength. Both shapes are crafted in lightweight titanium and available in four signature Prodesign colours — refined, characterful, and quietly expressive.

Dry, irritated eyes? You’re not imagining it!

Dry Eye Syndrome happens when your eyes don’t have enough moisture (or the right quality tears) to stay comfortable.

It can be as mild as a bit of irritation…or as frustrating as constant redness, watering, and blurry vision.

The good news? There are so many ways we can help 💜

Weekly floof from our mates at Blind Low Vision NZ Guide Dogs 🐕🦺 !

Happy Floof everyone! 🐾

We've had some wild weather at Guide Dogs this week, the pups were not impressed!

We had the very sweet J litter in for a day stay, and little Janie even lost a tooth (we’re still investigating whether the tooth fairy visits guide dogs!)

See you next week for more floofy updates! 💛

1️⃣ Trish, a white guide dog in training, lies on her back in the freerun with her paws in the air and a happy smile on her face.
2️⃣ Vale and Zeus, two black guide dogs in training, sit on their beds in the Development Centre wrapped in blankets while a movie plays on a TV in the background.
3️⃣ Daystay pup Janie, a black guide dog puppy, sits on a forest walkway and looks at the camera with a little smile.
4️⃣ Black guide dog puppy Janie sits in her room at the Development Centre with her trainer, who is holding a small tooth in her hand.
5️⃣ Ella, a black guide dog in training, stands over the camera, like she's taking a serious selfie!
6️⃣ Yumi, a golden guide dog in training, sits politely in the guide dogs office, looking at the camera.
7️⃣ Zeus, a black guide dog in training, sits on a large piece of mushroom patterned bedding in the Development Centre.
8️⃣ Xavier, a black guide dog in training, gallops through the freerun on a sunny day, ears flapping everywhere!
9️⃣ Elsie, a black guide dog in training, sits on the floor wrapped in a blue towel after a groom whilst looking at the camera very seriously!

A little bold, a little thoughtful 💜

Specs by Prue is lighting up the latest (page 90) issue — but we’re especially proud to see one of our own featured in Women in Business 2026 (page 86).

From team culture to community impact (and the things she always makes time for), it’s a lovely peek behind the scenes of what matters most to director and optometrist extraordinaire, Jocelyn 🫶

Weekly floof from our mates at Blind Low Vision NZ Guide Dogs 🐕🦺 !

This week’s Floof features a very soggy Uno after a swim at the MPI pool, Vale having a blast with bubbles, and Yeti the polar bear getting a groom.
