STEPPER EYEWEAR: Celebrating 90 Years of Vision: Hans Stepper-A life dedicated to optical excellence and The Perfect Fit.

This year marks a remarkable dual celebration — the 90th birthday of Hans Stepper, founder of STEPPER EYEWEAR, and the 55th anniversary of the brand’s founding.

Founded on the vision of Hans Stepper (born 24 December 1935), STEPPER EYEWEAR continues to embody his lifelong commitment to comfort, precision, and fit.
From Optician to Innovator: Hans Stepper’s journey began not as a designer, but as a German Master Optician — a professional who understood that eyewear is a medical device, not a fashion accessory.

His belief that fit comes first redefined how frames are conceived, transforming eyewear from a style-driven object into a precision-engineered instrument for better vision. Hans Stepper’s contribution to modern eyewear is immeasurable. His work redefined what it means for a frame to fit — not just in style, but in science.

A World of Vision: From a single optician’s workshop in Germany, STEPPER EYEWEAR has grown into a global brand present in more than 60 countries, trusted by optical professionals and wearers alike.

WORLD SIGHT DAY
On 9 October 2025, World Sight Day invites people across the globe to "Love Your Eyes", a campaign that focuses on vision care. With at least 2.2 billion people worldwide living with vision impairment, and one billion of those having preventable or untreated conditions, eye health remains one of the most pressing global concerns.
In today's world, our eyes are working overtime. From phones to laptops and tablets, screen exposure is constant, often stretching beyond 10 hours a day for many adults. Research now links excessive screen time to a growing list of problems, from eye strain and headaches to sleep disruption and even progressive near-sightedness (myopia).

Studies involving over 335,000 participants found that every additional hour of screen time is associated with a 21% higher risk of developing myopia. Another study published on the WHO-supported database found that 94.7% of medical students experienced mild to moderate "computer vision syndrome" due to prolonged screen exposure.

This World Sight Day, the reminder is simple: Screens are here to stay, but protecting your vision must be a daily habit.

ORGANIC LENSES
Organic lenses are synthetic lenses commonly known as "plastic lenses". These lenses are obtained from synthetic resin.
The first glasses with organic lenses were released in 1947. The material used for their manufacture is CR39. It is a plastic polymer, the very first of its kind, used to make organic lenses.
Organic glasses have evolved over time and use the technologies available to become more efficient. The different types of organic lenses are: CR39, MR8, Trivex and Polycarbonate.

The benefits of using organic lenses:
Ease of wear
Resistance to breaking and scratches
UV ray protection
Multiple activity use
Aesthetics

Surface treatments for organic lenses:
Tint
Anti-scratch treatment
Anti-reflective treatment
Polarizing sun treatment

WORLD CONTACT LENS DAY 15 APRIL

Contact lenses may seem like a recent invention, but their roots can actually be traced back to 1508. That’s when Leonardo da Vinci—the famous inventor, scientist, and artist—came up with the concepts that eventually led to the invention of contact lenses
In his sketches, da Vinci showed how opening an eye in a glass of water could correct vision.
Then he took that idea a step further by suggesting that a water-filled dome, much like a contact lens, could be worn over the eye, with the first actual contact lenses being made from glass. These early scleral lenses were designed to rest on the entire surface of the eye, rather than the modern corneal contact lenses that rest on the cornea.

Bausch & Lomb, Alcon, CooperVision are some of the manufacturing companies of modern day contact lenses.
