Anwuli Eyewear presents its sunwear and optical line, and introduces the release of its second collection The Royal Evolution. Founded by optometrist Nwamaka Ngoddy, OD, Anwuli Eyewear aims to address the lack of size diversity in the eyewear industry, which primarily caters to European facial features. Driven by years of experience in optometry practice, Ngoddy believes that individuals have unique facial landscapes, and that everyone deserves fashionable eyewear that fits well. The latest collection, designed in collaboration with UN-TI-TLED Agency, infuses regal roots with innovation and contemporary elements. Showcasing Anwuli’s commitment to quality, frames utilize high-grade acetates known for their durability and distinctive color combinations. Additionally, the collection features titanium metal frames and offers timeless silhouettes with contemporary twists and avant-garde designs.

Dr. Ngoddy, a first-generation Nigerian American born and raised in Atlanta, struggled to find frames that both fit her well and made a statement. This inspired her to pioneer Anwuli Eyewear, a line she launched in 2020 with Black and African facial features in mind.
“Starting Anwuli Eyewear despite the many hurdles that came up during the global pandemic has really helped me realize my dreams of leaving a legacy for my family and the optical industry,” she says.
Dr. Ngoddy, practitioner/owner of Eye Totally Care in metro Atlanta, will be a familiar face on the NOW by Vision Expo advisory committee this month in New York City—where she and other industry pros will present the inaugural NOW awards to innovative products.
Here, she dishes on value, vision, and more.
