They combine two different sets of lenses into one double-framed design. Although some may immediately think about [flip-up sunglasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oakley-flex-scape-gogglesunglasses-hybrid) that allow a person to have a pair of prescription eyeglasses and sunglasses in one, the 4occhi Glasses also address the fact that many people are both [near-sighted and far-sighted](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bio-lens). The 4occhi Glasses can accommodate both of these conflicting prescriptions. Designed by Giulio Iacchetti, the 4occhi Glasses are a stylish option to other eyewear alternatives. Each pair is handmade out of [cellulose acetate](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/issey-miyake-eyes), which is a plant-based plastic derived from cotton and wood fibers. It is available in different colors and patterns. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.1/10 - Popularity: 73% | Activity: 73% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Dual-prescription Eyewear:** Opportunity for eyewear companies to create dual-prescription glasses for those who are both near-sighted and far-sighted. - **Combination Eyeglasses:** Opportunity for companies to create more creative and stylish combination eyeglasses that incorporate different lenses. - **Handmade Eyewear:** Opportunity for companies to create handmade and plant-based eyewear, providing eco-friendly and personalized options for customers. ### Where This Applies - **Eyewear:** Eyewear companies have an opportunity to innovate and create new products that cater to the needs and preferences of their clients. - **Fashion:** The fashion industry can incorporate the trend of combination eyewear and create more stylish and creative options for customers. - **Sustainability:** The trend towards plant-based eyewear can disrupt the eyewear industry and promote sustainability and eco-friendliness among consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Versatile Eyewear Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/framery.md) - [Transforming Liquid-Lens Sunglasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/32-degrees-north.md) - [Adaptive Reading Sunglasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/32n-sunglasses-by-deep-optics.md) - [Prescription-On-Demand Eyewear Services](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/prescription-on-demand.md) - [Color-Changing Eyewear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rayban-original-wayfarer-change-transitions.md) - [Futuristic Winter Sport Eyewear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oakley-flex-scape-gogglesunglasses-hybrid.md) - [Practical Stylish Foldable Eyewear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/editions-pliables.md) - [Adjustable Tinted Glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aura-rx.md) - [Haute Hinge-Free Eyewear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tangled-eyewear.md)
