“My overall evaluation of Maarten Weidema’s Amazing Eyewear is that it really is the ‘holy grail’ on eyewear design. I personally believe that it is a strong contender to be listed as an ‘essential’ on the list of books required at all the optical learning institutions. Independent optician practices most certainly would benefit from having a copy in their reception area, and it wouldn’t be out of place on the coffee table or bookshelf at home.”

We are super proud to have gotten our book featured by the industry experts from Laramy K, the OpticianWorks training center that helps opticians to become the best they can be so they can earn more, be happier, and make a difference. We love the content that John has been publishing for so many years and feel “pretty darn” proud when someone of his stature wants to put our coffee-table-book on his private coffee table <3.
