Okay now we're going to talk about the different styles available to children for their glasses, their frames rather. Same styles are available to adults so there's no different in what children can go ahead and pick out. I'll show you about 4 different choices really that you have to choose from. First thing I'll show you is what we call a flexible memory metal frame, okay? This frame has a lot of dexterity and a lot of movement. Underneath that we have a zyle frame. This is actually kind of a hybrid. It has metal temples on a plastic front. But again we would call this a zyle frame or a plastic frame. Underneath this is just a typical metal frame. Metal on all sides. Nothing different. And then finally we have a semi rimless frame. The semi rimless frame has a filament string that goes underneath it. And all these frames are available for children in a variety of different sizes. And we're going to talk about each of those separately here in just a few moments.
