About us

Warby Parker was founded with a mission: to inspire and impact the world with vision, purpose, and style. We’re constantly asking ourselves how we can do more and make a greater impact—and that starts by reimagining everything that a company and industry can be. We want to demonstrate that a business can scale, be profitable, and do good in the world—without charging a premium for it. And we’ve learned that it takes creativity, empathy, and innovation to achieve that goal. Glasses, sunglasses, contacts, and eye exams—we’ve got your eyes covered. Shop prescription eyewear starting at $95 online or find a store near you at warbyparker.com Ultimately, we believe in vision for all, which is why for every pair of glasses or sunglasses we sell, a pair of glasses is distributed to someone in need through our Buy a Pair, Give a Pair program. As of 2020, over eight million pairs have been distributed—and we’re only just getting started. Learn more at warbyparker.com/buy-a-pair-give-a-pair.

    I finally accomplished a goal I've been wanting for awhile, I HAVE ART IN MY HOME CITY! One of my favorite clients Warby Parker commissioned me to create art for their new store in Huntsville, Alabama. I created 20 illustrations that reflect the city and the south in general... warm, welcoming, and family + community oriented. I was actually finishing this project while I was home in June, and had the chance to really take in the city from a different lens. I incorporated places + architecture that have been apart of my childhood forever. While I'm so grateful to have art in major cities, the south raised me. Huntsville is HOME, and the people in the city still support me to this day. I'm so happy to finally have a piece of my creative spirit there. If you're in Huntsville, check out the new store in Bridgestreet and send me pics. A big thank you to Warby Parker for thinking of me for this.

    “Building a business is frankly an emotional rollercoaster.” bit.ly/3yOWOl Most of the time, work should be all business and not personal. That can be a relief when you think your boss is crazy, resent your coworker for dropping the ball on a project, or say too much at the company happy hour. The only snag is when you happen to be in business with your best friend. That’s the challenge for Dave Gilboa and Neil Blumenthal, the co-founders and co-CEOs of direct-to-consumer glasses juggernaut Warby Parker. The two pals met in business school and have been in business together for almost 15 years. Read more here: bit.ly/3yOWOls

    As the new school year begins, we’re excited to share that our Pupils Program program is growing! Through Pupils Project, we partner with local organizations and government agencies to provide free vision screenings, eye exams, and glasses to school children in the U.S. For the 2024-2025 school year, we’ll be bringing the program to two new cities – Austin, TX and Las Vegas, NV. With this expansion, the program is now operating in 42 U.S. cities and has distributed more than 270,000 pairs of glasses to school children nationwide since 2015. We’re looking forward to working with our new partners half Helen (Austin, TX) and EyeCare4Kids (Las Vegas, NV) and getting closer to our goal of ensuring students across the country have the glasses they need to see and thrive.
