SPECS4US
SPECS4US was created and founded in 2004 by Maria Dellapina with over 25 years in the optical industry and the mother of a four-year-old with Down Syndrome. She saw a definite need for this frame line. After two years of searching for an eyeglass frame to fit her daughter, Erin, Maria decided to use her knowledge as both an optician and mother to help Erin and others like her. “Erin’s World” is the frame line specially designed to fit children with Down syndrome superior to the typical frame. Unlike other frames, the bridge is adjusted to fit on their smaller noses and the temples (some people call them arms) are designed to help keep the glasses from constantly slipping. Erin's World frames are available in a variety of sizes and styles to fit toddlers to adults
