1.  Dharma Co. Eyewear: The Majestic Glasses That Just Stepped on the Scene

Dharma Co., inspired by world travelers, visionaries, and citizens of the world, Dharma Co. features high-quality, ethically-crafted products that radiate easy, cool and subtle sophistication. The company aims to make a positive impact on both the eyewear industry and the world using glasses: the accessory that never goes out of style!

The mission of Dharma Co. is to create eclectic, high-quality, ethically-crafted products that uphold the company's "Dharma" - their duty - to make a positive impact on both the eyewear industry and society. Dharma Co. hopes to inspire their customers to explore new perspectives, to live more sustainably, and to care for their fellow human beings.

Driven by this passion to humanize the industry's landscape founder of Dharma Co., Dhruv Jagasia, was practically raised in the eyewear industry. After years of observing certain patterns of sameness - overpriced, poorly-made products, purely profit-driven brand philosophies and a total lack of transparency - he decided in 2014 that he needed to shake things up. Dhruv set out to build a community of people who loved exploring and sharing, and whose insatiable curiosity led them to discoveries about both the world and their inner selves.

Armed to take on the screen and save your eyes Nectar has launched strain reducing computer glasses you're addicted to your devices according to science. Sporting 4 styles - the Hibro, Round, Vegas and Wayfarer.

Digital eye strain is the physical discomfort felt after two or more hours in front of a digital screen and is associated with the close to mid-range distance of digital screens, including desktop and laptop computers, tablets, e-readers and smartphones.

Prolonged periods of use appear to exacerbate symptoms of eye strain as 96 percent of Americans who experience digital eye strain spend two or more hours each day using devices. A combination of factors foster the onset of digital eye strain, including the proximity of the screen, the frequency and duration of use and the degree of exposure to high-energy visible (HEV) or blue light emitted by video screens.

• BLUE FILTER = MORE SLEEP - Strain Cutters reflect blue light that strains your eyes and disturbs your sleep cycle.
• IMPROVE YOUR WORLDLY VISION - Our Strain Cutters improve color contrast between objects to make your world more vibrant.
