Nova: Vision Meets Fashion

Nova, the internationally recognised brand is offering  vision solutions that are high on both technology and fashion to meet the demands of the modern day wearers

consumer-leaflet-1Nova is the flagship brand of Vision Rx Lab, a well-known provider of innovative eye-care solutions across the world for around 59 years. It is an international brand offering a vast portfolio of premium eye-care products, ranging from advanced digital lenses, fashionable frames to Rx sunglasses.

It has been 10 years since Nova has been launched in India. The journey of this premium brand started with the launch of Nova Plus in the year 2006, introducing Digital PAL & SV lenses in India, designed with Digi Contour Technology. Following the success of Nova Plus, other advanced progressive lenses were introduced over the years to meet the growing demands for lightweight progressive lenses with superior vision and better aesthetics.

Later on, Nova further expanded the brand portfolio, by venturing into other eyewear categories like fashionable frames, Rx sunglasses and swimming goggles.

Nova_HD_full-ad_03112015-(1)Commenting on the brand strategy and repositioning, Pammi Jamalpuria, GM, Corporate Marketing from Vision RX Lab said, “Today, Vision cannot be isolated unlike before, when lenses were only synonymous with vision correction. We believe that the modern day customer is fashion conscious and leads a dynamic lifestyle. This lifestyle includes handling various types of digital devices, multi-tasking with vision correction as a necessary prerequisite. Nova aptly fulfils these requirements by creating lenses which are aesthetically thin and cosmetically appealing for a suitable appearance.

Products like Nova Trufit allow consumers to wear stylish & curved frames without compromising on optics. In addition to that we have fashionable Rx sunglasses which come with Nova Sun Rx lenses for a very wide range of prescriptions for different age groups and lifestyles. Thus an amalgamation of vision and fashion is the new mantra in the eyewear industry, and hence ‘Vision meets Fashion’ has become the motto of our brand Nova.”
