The TWIN-Lux set a new benchmark with its combination of brightness, clarity, and magnification, quickly becoming a popular everyday aid for many people with impaired vision.

Spending too much time on screens can affect your eyes and overall health. 📱👀Prolonged screen exposure can lead to digital eye strain, causing symptoms like headaches and fatigue. It can also contribute to insomnia, brain fog, anxiety, and short-term memory issues, disrupting your sleep patterns and affecting your mental well-being.

Remember to take regular breaks, follow the 20-20-20 rule (every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds), and adjust your screen settings for comfort. Your eyes and mind will thank you!

1987 BOY, SIR, BOSS
We kick off our anniversary timeline by looking back at a small but revolutionary innovation: the BOY, SIR, and BOSS folding magnifiers.
Featuring an aspheric lightweight lens, fold-out handle and – for the first time ever – a metal stand with adjustable tilt for reading, they set new standards. The adjustable angled view was also a cutting-edge feature. A perfect example of how SCHWEIZER combines function and innovation – both then as now.
The countdown has begun. Follow us on www.schweizer-optik-innovation.de/en

On average, we blink around 15–20 times per minute—which adds up to our eyes being closed for roughly 10% of our waking hours.

Each blink helps refresh and protect the surface of the eye—just one of the many ways your eyes look after themselves without you even noticing.

Why do your tears taste salty?

Tears are made up of water, oils, and electrolytes—mainly sodium—which is why they have that salty taste. But they’re not just for crying. Tears play a vital role in keeping your eyes healthy, comfortable, and protected every day.
