The premiumisation of eyewear in the UAE is accelerating, driven by health and wellness and functionality trends. Looking ahead, consumers will increasingly seek eyewear that supports their lifestyle and addresses health concerns.
Progressive lenses are expected to continue gaining traction thanks to their ability to provide a seamless visual experience across near, intermediate, and far distances, which is ideal for individuals with complex vision needs. Meanwhile, single-vision lenses will remain popular for specific vision issues, such as myopia or hyperopia, and bifocal and trifocal lenses will continue to serve older adults who require multiple focal points.
Meta’s Spectacles officially entered the category at the end of May 2025. These smart glasses represent a significant step toward seamless human-computer interaction, enabling users to access information, capture content, and intuitively engage with their surroundings.
