Eye wear is a multimillion euro industry and several
companies are involved in it. Affordable eyewear is not
a new concept but the design is new.
To compete effectively in the global market and still
provide affordable eyewear to the needy population,
one must have an effective distribution network.
This paper discusses options for distribution of
affordable eyewear at the international, national
and local levels.
Factors that could influence the cost and acceptance
of the eye wear are also mentioned.
The paper concludes that the costs of affordable eye wear
should not be more than 1/10th of the average monthly
income of the target population.
