Christmas stocking filler ideas for spectacle loving family and friends
Christmas is just around the corner, whether we are ready or not! Like us, your attention is probably turning towards the things you need to get before the big event on the 25th of December. Christmas gift shopping is always one of the most stressful tasks, along with the ever-increasing list of things to get done before Christmas Eve.
We put ourselves under so much pressure to produce a ‘perfect’ Christmas every year. This Christmas will be difficult for a lot of people. And many will be thinking very carefully about what gifts they buy. This year we’ve decided to purchase experiences or more practical, usable gifts for friends and family. Like a night at the theatre, a pampering spa experience or a music festival ticket. Why buy unwanted gifts that are easily forgotten and go unused? It makes much more sense to gift an exciting, fun, and memorable experience that will give the recipient a memory that will last way beyond Christmas.
Of course, Christmas wouldn’t be Christmas without stocking fillers. Buying them can be tricky and if you’re not careful just as expensive as presents. Here at Respectacle Company, we have some practical stocking fillers available. Read on to find out more about our optical accessories for spectacle wearers that won’t break the bank.
First up is the marvellous Eyeshaker, a complete spectacle cleaning system developed, designed, and made in Germany. The Eyeshaker is an ingenious cleaning system which cleans every part of your eyewear as your spectacles are submerged and shaken in a tube with water and the cleaning solution. It gets into all the nooks and crannies that traditional lens cloths and sprays can’t reach. At £25, it’s a perfect and practical stocking filler.
Eyeshaker “A Washing Machine for your Glasses”
Next, we have a range of Le Kevin glasses holders. We see many people wearing their reading spectacles on a cord or chain, only for them to fly around their neck and get caught on their clothing or get tangled in objects when they bend over. It often leads to glasses getting twisted and bent. You can avoid that happening with a Le Kevin eyeglass chain. This fabulous optical accessory allows the glasses to lay flat around the neck, meaning they won’t get caught in anything. They look stylish too. With a great choice of colours available, you can accessorise them with colour-coordinated outfits. This luxury leather item costs £35.
Le Kevin Glasses Holder
If you are looking for something for a smaller budget, we can still help. Many people have stopped wearing face masks. But during the winter and flu season, it makes sense to wear masks in high-traffic areas. With the weather cooling down, many spectacle wearers suffer from lens fogging. So, we offer a lens cleaning cloth which helps prevent misting. We also have a selection of spectacle cases in store, and if you want a gift that keeps on giving, we have lens cleaning sprays at just £5 that we will refill once empty at no extra cost. It’s a practical stocking filler idea that’s good for your pocket and the environment, reducing the amount of single-use plastic.
We have a selection of optical accessories, including the Le Kevin spectacle holder in yellow or hot pink and the Eyeshaker, which can be purchased online. Please visit our online store to shop our optical accessories range. Otherwise, you are welcome to pop into the practice to pick up a gift. We are open Tuesday to Friday, between 9 am and 5 pm. The optical is also open Saturdays until 4 pm.
