Erin’s World EW-6 Blue
Maria’s Story (from Specs4Us.com)
Maria’s youngest daughter Erin was diagnosed with Down syndrome at birth. Knowing that nearly 87% of children with Down syndrome will need glasses by the time they enter preschool, Maria was shocked she couldn’t find a frame designed to fit individuals with unique facial features. After several frustrating years of searching for an eyeglass frame that would fit Erin properly and that resulted in nothing, Maria took matters into her own hands. Combining her passion as a mother with her 30 years’ experience in the optical field and Erin’s World by Specs4us was created.
Why is Erin’s World unique?
- Lowered bridge to prevent slipping on individuals with Down syndrome.
- Widened frame front (added 10 mm) for narrow set eyes.
- Adjustable temples (can be lengthened or shortened).
- Memory flex bridge or TR90 plastic temples.
Fitting Guide
Erin’s World Frame Line is designed to fit individuals with low or flat nose bridges. Our frame design is different than what you have fit in the past. Many opticians are used to fitting an oversized lens to compensate for the width that most of our patients need. We have taken care of this issue with a few adjustments; by adding 10 mm on each end of the eye wire, adjusting temple placement, and lowering the bridge to prevent slipping and allow proper balance and support. These adjustments allow patients to look through the optical center of the lens rather than over the lens. This will mean less decentration and a better-looking frame. For example, if your patient fits a 40-eye size in a typical frame, they may fit a 38-eye size in Erin’s World Frame Line. Our temple diameter on most models is the same throughout the length of the temple and can be cut down to size if needed.
