Eyewear That Fits Your Face and Your Culture: Tribal Eyes’ Inspiring Story with Dr. Ona Utuama
Episode Description
Have you ever struggled to find eyewear that truly fits your face? I know I have. The one-size-fits-all approach to glasses just doesn’t work for everyone, especially those with wider noses, high cheekbones, and low nose bridges.
In this bonus episode, I’m thrilled to introduce you to Dr. Ona Utuama, the brilliant founder of Tribal Eyes. As a family medicine physician, Dr. Ona experienced firsthand the challenges of finding well-fitting, stylish eyewear. Frustrated with the lack of options, she set out to create a brand that celebrates diversity and offers a perfect fit for every face.
Tune in this week to discover how Tribal Eyes is revolutionizing the eyewear industry by infusing culture, science, and style into every pair of glasses. Dr. Ona shares her inspiring entrepreneurial journey, expert tips for finding your ideal fit, and exciting plans for the future of Tribal Eyes.
