NEW YORK—There is no shortage of coveted, swoon-worthy eyewear these days, and sometimes all the choices can feel overwhelming for both patients and ECPs alike. Walking into a fully stocked optician’s space can make you feel like a kid in a candy shop, but it can also feel almost impossible to narrow things down and make a choice. For patients, this can lead to indecision and sometimes overlooking the perfect frame, while ECPs might be desperate to show off their favorite eyewear, but might not have the time to do so in every single session.

Thankfully, we live in a world with social media, allowing us to curate and show off our favorite things whenever we want to—a fantastic tool for ECPs obsessed with their in-office frame collections. On Instagram, some ECPs have found the perfect way to showcase what’s in stock with #FrameOfTheDay, a hashtag where they share an image of a frame each day. The frame is usually something new or popular, or something special a patient has chosen as their own. This week, we’re taking a look at the #FrameOfTheDay hashtag to see how ECPs everywhere are using it—and how you can, too.
