Zyloware Eyewear

Join us in Celebration National Eyewear Day on June 6th, 2023! For 100 years, family-owned and operated Zyloware has prided itself on quality, service and customer satisfaction. Founded in 1923 by Joseph Shyer, Zyloware first made its home in Long Island City, New York, when the area was surrounded by potato fields. Through several expansions and its evolution into the global supplier it is today, Zyloware remained on the same block, just across the East River from the Manhattan skyline for 87 years. Known as an optical innovator, Zyloware leads the industry in original product development and branding initiatives. Perhaps Zyloware's most widely recognized innovation was the development of the Invincible in 1964. The first frame made out of Nylon and the industry's most successful ever Nylon frame sold in the United States, the Invincible has sold over 20 million frames. Today Zyloware is over 20 years into its third generation of family stewardship, and remains an American independent, privately held company. It is the oldest family-owned optical frame supplier in the United States. By carefully adding well-known brands and exciting products, Zyloware continues to grow. The company has increased the scope and size of its sales force in conjunction with its in-house marketing and product development teams. Zyloware continually receives awards for frame quality and design, marketing and our customer service. Zyloware is aggressively adapting to the ever-changing needs of the eyewear industry; however, the core values of the company will always remain the same. Zyloware will always develop the highest quality products, provide superior customer service and remain dedicated to the needs of eyecare professionals and consumers. For over 100 years, Zyloware has developed warm, lasting relationships with its customers. The Zyloware family looks forward to continuing those special relationships as it continues to innovate and introduce desirable eyewear products.
