Flex Dollars for New Eyewear
Many Americans have flex spending or medical savings accounts as part of their health coverage. Any money remaining in these accounts after December 31 are forfeited. Don’t let that happen! If you have extra Flex Dollars in your account and aren’t sure what to do with them, use them for a new pair of prescription eyeglasses!
Even if you already have a pair of glasses, you could always use a spare. Spring for an extra pair to keep in your car, at the office, or in your favorite golf bag. Instead of losing your Flex Dollars put them to good use by ensuring that you’re never without a pair of glasses. Better yet, if you do already have a pair of eyeglasses, then put your Flex Dollars toward a nice pair prescription sunglasses.
Or if you’re a contacts wearer you could stock up on contacts for the entire year!

The Beatles Sunglasses
Beatlemania has taken over at FramesDirect.com! We’ve now got the complete line of Official Beatles Sunglasses! These sunglasses are made by Revolution Eyewear and are officially licensed by The Beatles. There are 10 colorful styles to choose from featuring the unique artwork from the Yellow Submarine film made from two types of patented technology: HDA (High Definition Acetate) and BMT (Beautiful metallic Touch.)
The Yellow Submarine sunglasses are made of the highest quality and meant to be worn proudly, not stuck up on a memorabilia shelf collecting dust. Fusing timeless styling with iconic imagery from the revolutionary band’s famous film, these shades transport the wearer right to the heart of 60s era psychedelic pop culture. The images are rendered beautifully on the frame temples using HDA and BMT technologies which yields stunning brightness and clarity.
About the Yellow Submarine:
The Yellow Submarine was released in 1968. It is an animated musical fantasy based on the music of The Beatles. The film received mostly positive reviews from audiences and critics alike and is credited with bringing more interest in animation as a serious art form.
The Beatles, themselves, make a live action appearance at the end of the movie as Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, but the voices for their animated counterparts were actually performed by actors. In the movie, Pepperland, a cheerful music loving place guarded by Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, is besieged by the music-hating Blue Meanies, who lock the band away in a music-proof bubble. Pepperland’s mayor sends Old Fred out in a yellow submarine to get help. Old Fred travels to Liverpool where he finds Ringo, John, George, and Paul. He brings them back to Pepperland to free the land from the Blue Meanies.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
We’re eager to hear what some true fans think of the new Beatles Sunglasses. Let us know!

Steve Jobs Eyeglasses…Or Should That be iGlasses?
So you’ve been inspired by the late Steve Jobs to change the world in breathtaking technological ways that will forever shape and influence the course of humanity? Great! But before you start tinkering away in your garage on the next big hi-tech wonder gadget; let’s make sure you look the part.
Steve Jobs was not only known for spinning out a string of creative gadgetry and businesses, but also for being quite a snappy dresser, if by snappy you mean predictable. By wearing the same thing every day, Jobs was able to ensure that none of his brain cells were wasted on answering questions like “Do these cuff links match this belt?” but were all focused on answering questions like “How can I make a telephone play Scrabble?”
Jobs will be forever remembered as the mega genius in jeans and a black shirt, but there is another part of his daily wardrobe that shouldn’t be overlooked: his eyeglasses!
Steve Jobs’ iconic rimless eyeglasses with round frames were the perfect complement to his personal style. They blended in so effortlessly with his appearance that you probably didn’t even know he wore glasses at all until you read this. Well guess what…he did! And you can too!
With the Savile Row Round Diaflex Rimless Eyeglasses from FramesDirect.com you can grace your face with the elegant brilliance of the Apple mastermind and be well on your way to inventing the next big world-changing innovation.
While Jobs’ eyeglasses were a custom made design, these classy Savile Row frames are nearly identical. They are made by hand in London, England and you can get them with single vision or progressive prescriptions. Added bonus: these were also worn by Eric Clapton!
With these frames you’ll be well on your way to changing humanity for the better with fantastic, computerized gadgets. I would recommend staying away from the smartphone market, though. That one is pretty well covered. What other unassuming device could you turn into a technological wonder that people would wait in line for all night? How about a toaster that’s also a universal remote!
