Monday recap 🤓✨

We had the BEST time hanging with Hamden Girl Scout Troop 60444 this past Friday 💚🍪
We talked all things eyes — UV protection ☀️, polarization 😎, and how to pick the *perfect* pair for every adventure 👓

Nothing we love more than sharing optical know-how and supporting our community… (okay maybe the cookies too 🍪😉)

See better. Learn better. Have fun doing it 👁️✨
