The Perfect Glasses You Need for Every Occasion This School Year

If there’s one thing people get right about being a college student, it’s that you’re going to be busy all the time. Whether you’re attending your fourth class of the day, heading to an executive board meeting for your campus club, or getting primped for your Friday night out with your girl gang, it always feels like there’s somewhere to be. As the #girlboss you are, you can probably juggle all of these activities and events — but why not do it all in style? Nothing says effortless, trendy style like a chic pair of glasses and sunglasses.

For all your college needs, Zenni Optical has your back for the latest prescription glasses, sunglasses, and even blue light-filtering glasses. Zenni has the right pair of glasses for any college occasion, including classic looks, fun and bold accent frames, and everything in between. Plus, Zenni glasses are super affordable, especially for a college girl on a budget (#thestruggleisreal). Here are the best glasses to rock for whatever affair this school year calls for.

For the lecture hall

Let’s face it — unless you’re sitting in the very front of a lecture hall, it can be hard to see everything that’s going on in class. Especially for those of us who need prescription glasses, those massive lecture halls can make it difficult to see the professor’s board or slideshow. Luckily, Zenni has the cutest prescription glasses, made perfect for those with near or far-sighted vision. We LOVE these millennial pink Candy Eyeglasses (so on-trend) for a stylish touch to some necessary prescription glasses.

For tailgate season

Get gameday ready with some super bold sunnies! There’s no better event than a football tailgate or game to try a new trend, and that’s no exception for eyewear. With tons of colors, sizes and styles, Zenni has a ton of options for the most fashion-forward sunglasses. These slightly heart-shaped glasses are ultra-unique and are sure to pair perfectly with any game day outfit.

For those late-night study sessions in the library

When the homework assignments, group projects and midterm exams are all-too-overwhelming, it’s time to hit the library. But before straining your eyes by starting at a computer for a few consecutive hours or during an all-nighter (no shame, we’ve all been there), make sure you’re wearing the right glasses to keep your eyes protected. Zenni’s UV+ Blue Blockers lenses are perfect for any college student who’s constantly studying and working on their laptop — they protect from high-energy visible blue lights that can cause tired eyes, headaches and blurred vision. These aviator style glasses with UV+ Blue Blocker are perfect for a studious yet stylish look, and will keep you on top of your game during your study sesh!

For a night out with the squad

Take your nighttime outfit to the next level with some fashion-forward frames! Try some cat-eye sunglasses for your next happy hour to look stunning during that sunset #goldenhour, or a pair of fun, colorful glasses during a night out on the college town. No matter what look you’re going for when you’re destressing during the weekend, Zenni has a huge selection of chic frames that are the perfect accessory for any after-class affair.

For slaying your internship

Every #girlboss needs a pair of stylish glasses to rock during her internship. Try a go-to pair of round eyeglasses with a tortoiseshell pattern for a sophisticated style. Or, if you’re looking to channel some classic vibes, try a pair of round wire glasses with UV+ Blue Blocker lenses while working on your latest assignments.

Whether you’re working hard to ace your next exam or hanging out with your squad, there’s a pair of glasses from Zenni Optical for any occasion during college. Become a #Zennista and try out a new pair of glasses or sunglasses — you won’t regret reaching for the most stylish accessory of the season!
