Additional Info
Stylish kids glasses with an impact. Inspired by the birth of their son, Jonas Paul, who was born with a rare disorder causing opacified corneas and glaucoma, Ben and Laura Harrison founded Jonas Paul Eyewear in 2013 after 21 surgeries (and a lot of love) restored their son's vision to a functional level. Frustrated with the limited options for fashionable children's eyewear, Ben and Laura left their careers to start Jonas Paul Eyewear with the goal of helping children feel beautiful in their glasses while preventing childhood blindness around the globe with every purchase through a partnership with Vitamin Angels®. This #BuySightGiveSight campaign aims to impact 1 million families by 2026. The company has been featured in The Wall Street Journal, Huffington Post, Harvard Business Review, on NBC Nightly News and Today Show with Willie Geist, and has garnered numerous awards for its social responsibility and design. Jonas Paul’s refined, sophisticated look empowers children to feel confident and parents to be socially responsible with their eyewear purchases. The Harrison’s are thankful that they have been given the opportunity to make a broad social impact while, at the same time, helping kids all over the world look incredibly dapper.
