Green eyewear from Essilor

There is recently an environmental action from the eyewear giant Essilor. At the time of going back to school after the summer holiday, many students in America need eye exams because good vision is essential through classroom activities. Essilor is grabbing this opportunity to propagate its new products, which promote environmental protection.
In the beginning of the new school year, Essilor releases the first-ever eco-friendly eyewear called Airwear lenses. The production of Airwear lenses uses 100% recycled water and packaging and re-purposes unused materials for other industries. Manufacturing these green products, Essilor offers a great chance for students and their parents to start a new routine of environmental protection and establish daily green habits. In addition to environmental awareness, Essilor also takes action in charity. One fifth of the Essilor Junior lenses will be donated to the Essilor Vision Foundation, which is aimed at improving vision in children nationwide.

Remember to pretect your eyes from harmful UV rays

Protecting your eyes from UV rays is a job for all year around. Unshielded eyes are inclined to suffer from potential eye diseases and problems such as macular degeneration, cataracts, photokeratitis, pterygium and skin cancer around the eyelids.
There are a couple of choices for people to shield the eyes from these harmful rays. A pair of suitable sunglasses which is 100% UV proof will be a good choice. Second choice will be the over-prescription sunglasses worn over normal eyeglasses. Third option is to use the clip-on sunshade which is easy to wear and remove. The fourth choice is to let the optician to fit the photochromic lenses which darkens in the outdoors and resume to clear while indoors. The fifth choice is not famaliar to common eyewear wearers: by choosing the polycarbonate lenses, you are entitled to protect your eyes fro UV rays. Polycarbonate lenses are born with UV resistance, so be careful not to let the tricky opticians to over-charge you for duplicate add-on for another hundred dollars.
Once again, UV protection is not only for the summer, but for the whole year around.

美国2009年1月份电子商务获得2%增长

据2009年2月19日道琼斯报道， 美国电子商务在2009年1月份获得2%的增长， 但是由于金融危机带来的电子商务销售下滑尚未见底。根据一种广为采用的统计手段， 美国在09年1月份的电子商务销售增长了微弱的2%， 给亚马逊和eBay等网络零售商带来一线希望。但有业内人士认为， 更坏的结果可能还在后面。根据comScore公司的分析， 1月份电子商务的增长来自于原本不太愿意讨价还价的中产阶层也加入了精打细算的行列， 也加入到在网上淘便宜货的大军中来。 comScore在上个月发布了08年第四季度的电子商务统计， 数字显示美国电子商务总额在08年四季度出现了3%的负增长， 这是comScore公司从2001年开始此项数据跟踪以来的第一次。comScore是在美国最大的电子商务公司亚马逊和eBay发布了08年第四季度的财务数据以后发布的。 亚马逊宣称， 刚刚结束的08年第四季度是该公司历史以来最好的节日销售， 出现了18%的增长。 同时eBay却出现了该公司历史以来的首次季度销售额下滑。尽管comScore 1月份的数据给美国的电子商务行业以一线希望， 但有业内人士和观察家认为， 美国的1300亿美元的电子商务市场很有可能在真正转好之前还会继续下滑。eMarketer公司的电子商务分析师Jeffrey Grau说， 我们在将来的数月内将会是真正困难的月份， 可能整个上半年都会这样。根据美国商务部公告公布的数字， 美国09年1月份的零售额出现了惊人的1%的反弹， 原因是店家采取了降价等促销手段。这是美国连续6个月出现销售下滑以后的首次反弹。但经济学家提醒美国的零售由于消费者进一步削减支出还会继续下滑。美国电子商务是否能健康发展直接影响到在线广告公司的业务。在线广告公司如谷歌， 为这些电子商务网站带来流量和客户。 据Google公司发布的数据， Google在08年四季度的广告营收相当不错， 因为美国每年第四季度往往是在线零售商囤足货品而消费者在网上搜索购买的最佳季节。 但是公司管理层称， 进入09年1月份以后， 在线广告有下降的趋势。这些电子商务公司以及在线广告公司的股票在这次金融危机中已经遭受到了很大的冲击。周四早些时段， 亚马逊的股价为$62.82, 比52周最高价下跌了30%; eBay的股价为$12.27， 比52周最高价下跌了60%； Google的股价为 $347.68, 比52周最高价下跌了40%。也有很少一些电子商务公司认为， 美国的电子商务已经触底。据搜索引擎营销商Reprise Media公司称， 那些电子商务网站在09年1月份投入到关键词上的广告费用比08年12月下降了10%。进入1月份以后，网上购物者在互联网上进行比较购物的程度大大超过了以往， 这也就意味着在今后的月份中电子商务销售将会进一步疲软。Eyeglasses B2C

美国LifeHacker报道： 网上配镜帮你省下一大笔钱

http://www.firmoo.com/post/14.html在美国， 戴眼镜的朋友都知道这戴在头上的两小片玻璃需要花费多少钱。 接受我们的建议吧！ 如果你尝试网上配镜的话， 你将可以省下一大笔钱。去年我发现如果我能配一副度数较浅的眼镜的话，能让我每天长时间地呆在电脑面前时感到舒服一点。我以前没有佩戴眼镜， 并且也从来不习惯于那些价格极其昂贵的处方眼镜。我和我老婆想各配一副眼镜， 我挑的是最普通的镜架和镜片， 她的那副稍微高级一点。 当我看到高达600美元的总账单的时候， 我几乎晕倒。但是但我想起佩戴眼镜以后也许会让长时间呆在电脑面前会舒服一点， 我也就心理平衡了， 我还暗暗地告诉我自己， 这副眼镜上镜片也许是用天使的眼泪抛光的， 可以永不磨损。然而不到一年， 由于我经常用衬衣擦镜， 其中的一片镜片被划伤了。 当我想起我得再花300美元去买一副防划的眼镜的时候，我不禁有点打颤。 我想起了我曾经在网上浏览时看到过一些网友在网上购镜以后的评论， 特别是有一个叫Matt Haughey的博客主， 他只花了50美元买到了平时需要500美元才能在眼镜店里配到的眼镜。 我对这个故事至今还是记忆犹新。今年一月份， 我向ZenniOptical订购了一副眼镜。这是至今我在网上找到的价格最低， 品质信誉都挺不错的网上零售商。Zenni的眼镜从8美元起步， 根据不同的镜片镀膜和变色情况不同而需加收一定的费用。我在网上搜索了几百副镜架以后， 我终于找到了两副跟我和我老婆现在在戴的两副几乎差不多的镜架。 其中钛金属的那副跟我用300美元买来的那副眼镜几乎一模一样， 但只要16美元。我老婆的那副因为度数高需配高折射率更薄的镜片， 因此价格跳到了32美元。 两副眼镜加在一起加上运费一共花了我53.85美元。六个星期以后我收到一份寄自于香港的包裹。我急忙试着戴了一下刚刚收到的眼镜， 我非常满意。这副新买的眼镜几乎跟原来那副一模一样，当然新眼镜上没有划痕啦。当我戴上新的那副眼镜时， 我老婆几乎没有察觉到我已经戴上了我的新眼镜。当我老婆也戴上她的新眼镜的时候， 我们俩都觉得我们大半年前为什么会这么傻去花600美元买了现今已经被划伤了的眼镜。眼镜（Eyeglasses）B2C研究

Threat or opportunity? China's eyeglasses industry VS economic downturn.

The global economic crisis triggered by the subprime mortgage failure in the United States are still on its way of spreading and deepening. This crisis is affecting China's industries in a an unprecedentedly harmful manner, including China's eyeglasses industry, as 70% of the eyeglasses produced in China are normally for export. Still as what the word "crisis" implies in Chinese language, crisis means both "threat" and "opportunity" which is coexsitent when facing crisis.Here are some examples of how the eyeglasses enterprises in China are reacting in the time of fierce economic slowdown. Based on the poll carried our at the end of 2008, 70% of the eyeglasses companies in China have been impacted by the financial tsunami. Many enterprises are trying to convert the threats to be opportunities. In Yuhuan, a county in Wehzhou city which is famous for its manufacturing of all types of eyeglasses accessories, companies like Dafa and Huaqiang are capitalizing the low price of copper to buy and hold for the future business expanding. In Danyang, as its glasses enterprises' dependency on export is not as heavy as that of Shenzhen's, Danyang companies are penetrating in depth the percentage share of China's local market. In Shenzhen, one company can spend only seventy to eighty thousand RMB to purchase an equipment which normally would cost six hundred thousand to one million. On this point it is a perfect opportunity for those companies that are going to expand in the time of economic meltdown.In Shanghai the Hydron contact lenses company has just spent 60 million RMB setting up another casting assembly of the world's most advance technology. With this new assembly line Hydron's production capacity will be up to 40 million pairs of contact lenses.In Xiamen, Quansheng company just imported machines from Italy to manufacture world's top quality of metal frames.In Wenzhou, the January's export of eyeglasse is about 77 million US dollars which is 20.76% more on the year-on-year basis. It is highly because of the affordable price and fair quality of the Wenzhou eyeglasses. Analysts told reporters that in the time of economic slowdown, consumers in the western countries tends to buy cheap but acceptable quality stuff instead of expensive things. The increase of eyeglasses export in Wenzhou reveals apparently that 2009 is the time of opportunity.

Fundamental Facts about China's Eyeglasses Industry

http://www.firmoo.com/post/9.html

China has gradually become the largest manufacturing base for eyeglasses frames, spectacle lenses and sunglasses in the past decade. Here are some fundamental facts about China's glasses industry.

1. China's manufacturing of eyeglasses-related products is mainly focused in four major geographic districts which are Shenzhen and Dongguan of Guangdong province, Xiamen of Fujian province, Wenzhou of Zhejiang province and Danyang of Jiangsu province respectively. These four districts produce about 90% of whole volume of China's eyeglasses industry.

Shenzhen and Dongguan are located at southern China's Guangdong province. These two cities are geographically close to Hong Kong, resulting in most of the manufacturers in Shenzhen and Dongguan being invested by HK eyeglasses companies. For this reason, Shenzhen and Dongguan are now the base for making middle- to high-end eyeglasses in China with most of the glasses labelled with world's most fames designers' logo. Shenzhen only has about 500 manufacturers with annual capacity of 200 million pairs of frames, lenses and sunglasses, and 95% of the products are exported to 130 countries, and 70% of European market share is from Shenzhen.Xiamen is located in China's southeastern Fujian province.

Xiamen is just the opposite side of the Taiwan Strait which is very close to Taiwan, therefore most the Xiamen glasses enterprises are Taiwan-mainland joint vetures. Different from other districts in China, Xiamen mainly focuses on the production and marketing of high-end sunglasses.

Wenzhou is in eastern China's Zhejiang province, the famous "Land of Overseas Chinese". Wenzhou's optical companies focus on manufacturing middle- to low-end frames and sunglasses. Its market of sunglasses in the world's market is about 40%. Wenzhou has about 1000 manufacturers in the area of frames, sunglasses and other accessories.

Danyang is in Jiangsu province which is near to Shanghai and Zhejiang province. This is a place where mostly the factories are engaged in the making of all types of middle- to low-end lenses. While Danyang also has some enterprises manufacturing frames, but the quality of the frames is of low end. The annual lenses producing capacity of Danyang is 150-200 million pairs which occupies about 70% of China's total volume and 50% of the whole world's.

2. China's eyeglasses indutry is export-oriented. In 2007, China exported 2.465 billion pairs of eyeglasses frames, lenese and sunglasses, with a total value of 3.344 billion US dollars. Unfortunately the average export price is only USD1.36 per pair. About 60% of China's total production of eyeglasses-related goods is for export, which has a world's low-end market share of 80%. In total China has about 4000 manufacturers in the eyeglasses and relative areas.

3. China is the most populous nation in the world. Out of her 1.35 billion population, about 300 million need some kind of corrective eyeglasses. Adding the consumption of sunglasses for fashion and protection purpose in the summertime, the whole market is immense. Therefore, many world's major chain retailers, such as LensCrafters, are entering and expanding in China's local market in hope of grabbing China's high-end consumers. Presently China has about 20,000 retail optical stores. If you are interested in China's optical and vision eyeglasses industry, you may find the above information useful and helpful.
