This collection features six new eyewear designs in two colours each, from the green player tracksuits and the Young-hee doll, to the surreal maze-like pastel-coloured staircases. Each pair of glasses also comes packaged in a limited-edition case designed to resemble the iconic 'coffin' from Squid Game, as well as a soft pouch that doubles as an eyeglass wipe.

If you're a fan of Player 456, you would like the Tracksuit model which offers trendy square frames in the unmistakable green of each contestant's tracksuits, along with 456's number and the pink guards' signature symbols subtly detailed along the temples.

Those who love the 'Red Light, Green Light' doll would probably like the Young-hee model — a pair of oversized Boston-shaped frames with 3D touches inspired by her hairband and pigtails.

Exude a bit of mystery just like the game's elusive overseer with the Frontman model, featuring polygonal Boston frames and temples that mimic mesh, stamped with the familiar circle, triangle, and square motifs of the guards.

The Staircase model features clear Boston frames reminiscent of dalgona candy, with temple tips that trace the pastel maze of staircases. Image courtesy of OWNDAYS. Lastly, a decision-making process that was incorporated in season two gets honoured here with the OX model and its sharp square frames, marked with both O and X symbols.

Style News: Aupen x Fullerton Hotel couture bag, Jo Malone pop-up at Paragon
Sign up now: Get ST's newsletters delivered to your inbox (Clockwise from left) Jo Malone's limited edition scent, Raspeberry Ripple, complimented with Orange Marmalade, Aupen's latest bag from its private couture series Haute Maroquinerie and OWNDAYS' glasses inspired by Squid Game. New Aupen bag flaunts Singapore symbol Old and new Singapore icons collide in Aupen's latest creation from its private couture series Haute Maroquinerie: A black handbag featuring the hand-painted facade of The Fullerton Hotel Singapore. Seventy-year-old tannery Heng Long supplies the crocodile leather for the purse. The bag brand, founded by Singaporean Nicholas Tan from his grandmother's home in 2022, might be headquartered in Paris, but in this one-of-one piece, it wears its colours proudly – if not, a little subtly. At a corner of the bag's asymmetrical body, an Aupen signature, peeks the profile of the hotel's neoclassical pillars, as if glimpsed sidelong. The 'fractured' appearance of the edifice is meant to provoke a 'more abstract contemplation of heritage', Aupen said in a statement. The bag will be on show at a private event at The Fullerton Hotel from July 5 to 6. It is the second release in Aupen's Haute Maroquinerie, in its partnership with French luxury conglomerate LVMH's artisanal arm Metiers d'Art. The first was carried by American pop star Madonna, who showed it off on her Instagram Story in mid-June. Squid Game glasses hit town Fans of South Korean dystopian series Squid Game (2021 to 2025) can get their hands on glasses inspired by the show at Owndays stores. The Japanese eyewear brand's collaboration with the Netflix hit features six designs in two colours each. Prices start at $178. Those fond of the much-memed Red Light, Green Light killer doll might like the Boston-shaped frames of the Young-hee model. The pair comes with 3D touches taken from the robot's laser-beam shooting hairband and pigtails. The Japanese eyewear brand OWNDAYS collaboration with the Netflix hit features six designs, in two colours each. PHOTO: OWNDAYS The Stair model is a more surreal choice, with clear Boston frames that recall the dalgona candy from one of the show's iconic challenges. The temple tips of the frames trace the pastel maze of stairs in the Squid Game building where players fight to the death. For a more obvious reference, look to the OX model, with sharp, square frames marked with the 'yes' or 'no' O and X symbols of the game's ultimate vote. Info: Available at all Owndays stores and online at Paragon celebrates summer in style with scents and sounds Jo Malone brings it newest and limited edition scent - Raspeberry Ripple, complimented with Orange Marmalade - to the Paragon pop up.

They can address this with ground-in prismatic lenses. These work by refracting or bending the light entering the eye, directing it to focus on the same spot on each retina. This alignment of input allows the brain to receive the correct signals, enabling the production of a single, unified image. Digital eye strain, characterised by symptoms that include eye fatigue, blurred vision and headaches, is caused by prolonged screen use. They can address these issues with the use of anti-fatigue lenses that deliver a subtle power boost to the lower portion of the eye to alleviate eye strain associated with pre-presbyopia and assist with accommodative function.

It's an eye examination that goes beyond standard screening to assess a wider range of visual skills. The optical store also carries out diabetic retinopathy screening, which is a crucial aspect of managing diabetes. It involves assessing the retina for damage caused by high blood sugar levels. This helps to detect early signs of the condition and prevent vision loss. 290 Orchard Road, Paragon Tower 1 Lobby F, #18-02, Singapore 238859 +65 6734 8018 / +65 8468 0370 (WhatsApp) Mon to Sat: 9am – 6pm Closed on Sun Facebook | Instagram | Website What to buy at Northpoint City: 12 indie stores you didn't know existed The post 10 best optical shops in Singapore that are the apple of our eye appeared first on
