THE FUTURE IN FOCUS

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - December 3, 2009 - Minneapolis, MN

OGI Eyewear and Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Greater Twin Cities Partner to provide glasses to children.

Each year, an overwhelming number of children in the United States go undiagnosed with potentially serious vision problems. Poor vision can greatly impact a child’s ability to function in school as well as in their daily lives. Healthy vision helps to build self-esteem and improves performance in school. In most cases, poor vision can easily be detected and treated with a proper eye exam. For some children, a trip to the eye doctor is simply not possible. To better assist children with vision needs, Minneapolis-based OGI Eyewear has partnered with Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Greater Twin Cities to create a unique opportunity to provide children with eyecare necessary for success in school and daily life.

Big Brothers or Sisters (mentors) who feel their Little Brothers or Sisters (mentees) may benefit from this program will be issued vouchers. Each voucher will entitle the bearer to a complimentary eye exam at a participating location along with his or her choice of an OGI frame and a pair of lenses.

OGI Eyewear and Big Brothers Big Sisters are pleased to work together to promote eye health and further enrich the lives of young people. Through better vision, the future of our youth becomes a little bit clearer. If you are interested in participating in this program, please contact Amber Bay at the OGI Eyewear office at 763-592-1493 or by e-mail, amber.bay@ogiframes.com

OGI “SPINNERS” WIN VISION CHOICE AWARD AT VISION EXPO WEST 2008 IN LAS VEGAS

The newly released “Spinners” collection by Ogi frames was selected as the best new product at Vision Expo West 2008. Selected by attendees to the show, this revolutionary kids frame line was highlighted as a new addition to the already impressive Ogi showcase at Vision Expo West 2008.

Ogi featured four colorful pieces from the collection set in a revolving mechanical display that twisted the temple hinges on a continual
rotation of 360 degrees. The OGI Spinners are the only frames available today that feature this revolutionary temple with the ability to rotate as such. Made possible by an exclusive hinge, the temple smoothly revolves around the front of the frame and then locks back into place. The Spinners unique spring hinge increases durability by nearly eliminating all of the stress placed on the hinge of the frame and assuring a long frame life.
