Q: The eyeglass/contact industry seems ripe for disruption due to high costs to the consumer, often paying several hundred dollars for a pair of glasses. Warby Parker and Zenni optical are at the forefront of this disruption. Almost everyone I know buys online these days, $1-200 per pair. Warby is publicly traded, reported today. What is your opinion on Warby and do you have any idea if/when Zenni will go public. The former has retail stores, and charges more for their product, the latter online only.
Thanks
