The design of the ‘grafik:plastic’ [glasses packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lenskart) integrates its consumers directly into the boxes they receive. The clever boxes feature printed profile pictures of prospective customers on them, overlaid with a pair of glasses, effectively communicating how the right pair of glasses can give you a completely new look.

These [foldable paper sleeves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/editions-pliables) fit perfectly inside a frosted box, which includes multi-language manuals and information on the history of ‘grafik.’ The boxes also contain a cleaning cloth that reads “I can see clearly now,” which compliments the graphic text on the back of the boxes. These personality-infused boxes are clever ways to make personal connections with prospective new clients and provide them with a [beautiful box](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/redesigned-retail-packaging) that can be used even after its contents are emptied.
