LA Eyeworks occupies a distinctive position in the eyewear industry благодаря its experimental design approach, premium materials, and strong focus on customer experience. The brand combines a rich heritage, a bold creative philosophy, and a diverse portfolio of collections, offering frames for a wide range of personal styles. Whether a client is searching for expressive, statement silhouettes or refined, understated designs, LA Eyeworks delivers versatile options.
Two lifelong friends who had trained as opticians together, they launched the brand with a single mission: to challenge the prevailing norms of eyewear and open up an entirely new conversation about glasses as vehicles for personal expression.
More than four decades and hundreds of frame designs later, LA Eyeworks remains a privately owned, fiercely independent house of optical imagination. Every design still begins with a hand-drawn sketch. Every frame is still produced using the finest materials through a combination of precision technology and hand-finished crafting. And the philosophy hasn’t changed one bit: eyewear designed to celebrate the diversity of faces and the uniqueness of individuals.
As an authorized LA Eyeworks dealer, at Konstantin Vision, we carry LA Eyeworks eyeglasses at our NYC showroom — and they attract the clients who have been looking for something they couldn’t quite find anywhere else.
LA Eyeworks occupies a category of its own. These are not quiet frames. They are bold shapes, expressive color palettes of up to 12 options per silhouette, and imaginative material combinations that reflect a lifetime of obsession with hue, tone, and texture.
Each design is produced in limited editions — meaning the frame you choose is not something everyone is wearing. The brand has graced the faces of celebrities, performers, artists, and athletes, but the deeper intention, as McReynolds and Gherardi put it, is for you to find a frame that “conforms to no fashion sensibility but your own.”
Our licensed opticians will walk you through the full LA Eyeworks collection — helping you find the frame that is, in every sense, yours — backed by over 25 years of optical expertise in New York City.
LA Eyeworks has been one of the most influential voices in independent eyewear for over 45 years — and that influence is built entirely on the quality and originality of what they make.
Since 1981, their signature portrait ad campaign, photographed by Greg Gorman, has featured over 200 high-profile figures and cultural provocateurs in a continuing series of striking black-and-white images. It is one of the longest-running campaigns in eyewear history — not because it sells frames, but because it tells a story about individuality, vision, and what a pair of glasses can mean to the person wearing them.
The craftsmanship behind each frame matches that ambition. McReynolds and Gherardi begin every design with hand-drawn sketches, working through meticulous production steps where the finest materials are shaped by both advanced technology and hand-finishing. Every aspect of frame construction — shaping, color treatment, material handling — has at some point been reconsidered and reinvented as part of the designers’ restless creative process.
The result is eyewear that balances innovation with wearability: walking the line between optical tradition and a redefining expression of the present moment.
LA Eyeworks is available exclusively through independent opticians — and Konstantin Vision is proud to be one of them.
The brand deliberately avoids mass-market retail, choosing instead to place its frames in the hands of specialists who can give them the context, the service, and the attention they deserve. That philosophy aligns perfectly with how we operate at Konstantin Vision: a curated collection, expert guidance, and a fitting experience that puts your face, your personality, and your prescription at the center of every decision.
