Co-founder
May 2013 — Present · Grand Rapids, MI, US
The company was founded by Ben and Laura Harrison and inspired by the birth of their son, Jonas Paul. Jonas was born with a rare disorder, Peter’s Anomaly, that caused opacified corneas and glaucoma. Despite being blind at birth, Jonas Paul now has low vision thanks to 21 surgeries and the dedication of his loving parents. As Ben and Laura searched for fashionable eyeglasses for their son, they grew increasingly frustrated at the limited options for children. The Harrisons decided to leave their careers to launch Jonas Paul Eyewear with the mission of helping children feel beautiful in their glasses and providing sight to children all over the world through their Buy Sight, Give Sight program. As of Q1 2018, over 42,091 children have been impacted globally.Since its founding in 2013, Jonas Paul Eyewear has been featured on NBC Nightly News and NBC Today Show, The Wall Street Journal, Huffington Post as well as several other press features. Jonas Paul Eyewear has garnered numerous awards for its social responsibility and design.
