Eye Q Optical : Face à Face, Woow, Fusion Eyewear + Neesh Eyewear Trunk Show 2019

Jamaica’s premiere choice for eyewear, Eye Q Optical is celebrating their 20th anniversary in the form of Trunk Shows over an eight-day period at both their Manor Park and New Kingston locations.


The events feature 11 brands: Face à Face, Woow, Bellinger, Entourage of 7, Blac, Onirico, Essedue, Lara D, Iyoko Iyanke, Emmeline and Metrospec. We were invited to view the collections from the Face à Face, Woow, Fusion Eyewear, and Neesh Eyewear 

Face à Face eyewear will reveal your individual personality and underline the boldness, the modernity and the seduction of an independent, creative object of design. 


The Face à Face brand draws inspiration from architecture, modern art, and contemporary design. The frames are bold and have their own personality and give an extra oomph to the wearer. Woow was created as a collection under the Face à Face brand and has grown into a strong independent brand for the young, bold and trendy individual looking to make a statement with their glasses.


We were also invited to the Neesh Eyewear and Fusion Eyewear shows which were fun as we got to meet the owners of the brands.


Neesh Eyewear is a Toronto-based company that imports and distributes eyewear to optical and retail stores across the world. The brands featured at the Eye Q Optical Trunk show were Emmeline and Metrospec.


Fusion Eyewear is recognized for bringing the world of edgy, high-quality eyewear together with unparalleled customer service which was a lifelong dream for founder Alan Weisfeld. We were introduced to four brands under the label: 

Iyoko Inyaké, Lara d’, Essedue and Onirico

As a person who wears glasses and has several pairs, the selections I saw were impressive.
