One feature that is different on the kid’s glasses in comparison to the adult frames is the hinges. The kids’ collection has spring hinges instead of fixed barrel. "The wear and tear of frames is slightly different for kids than for adults," co-founder Neil Blumenthal told CNN.com.
The new line is just a pilot and is being tested, but the hope is that it will become a permanent arrangement in the future, according to CNN.com.
Warby Parker will continue its reputation of being socially conscious. Each pair of glasses purchased will support the Pupils Project, a program provides free vision screenings, eye exams, and glasses to children in need across New York City schools.
