At our practice Bay Optical, here on the Central Coast, we’re passionate about more than just great vision. We’re passionate about community. As a locally owned, independent optometry practice, we understand the heart, creativity, and dedication that goes into running a small business. That’s why we love supporting other independent Australian brands who share the same values.
Two of our favourite frame collections, Miss Lou and Domani are wonderful examples of small, family-run businesses creating exceptional eyewear with personality and purpose.
Miss Lou. Bold, Fun & Proudly Local
We are so excited to stock Miss Lou, a vibrant, independent eyewear brand based right here on the Central Coast, just like us.
Miss Lou frames are designed for people who love to express themselves. Think bold colours, playful shapes, and eye-catching details that instantly lift your look. These are frames that spark conversation and bring joy every time you put them on.
What we love most about Miss Lou:
🎨 Unique, statement-making designs
🌈 Fun colour combinations you won’t find everywhere
👓 High-quality materials with a comfortable fit
💛 A genuine small-business story behind every frame
As a fellow local small business, we understand how important it is to support brands that pour their heart into what they do.
Choosing Miss Lou means supporting creativity, independence, and the local Central Coast community.
When you purchase a pair of Miss Lou glasses, you’re not just getting fabulous frames, you’re backing a local dream.
Domani. Family-Owned Craftsmanship from the Northern Beaches
We’re also proud to stock Domani, a beautiful family-owned eyewear brand based on Sydney’s Northern Beaches.
Domani combines classic styling with modern detailing, offering frames that feel timeless yet fresh. Their collection is perfect for those who love refined shapes, sophisticated colours, and quality craftsmanship.
Why we love Domani:
👨👩👧👦 Family-owned and operated
🇦🇺 Designed by an independent Australian business
✨ Stylish, wearable frames for everyday confidence
🛠 Carefully crafted with attention to detail
Like us, Domani is built on strong relationships, personalised service, and pride in their product. Supporting brands like Domani helps keep independent eyewear thriving in Australia.
Why Supporting Small Business Matters
As an independent optometry practice here on the Central Coast, we intentionally choose frame brands that reflect our values. When you shop with us and choose collections like Miss Lou or Domani, you’re:
- Supporting local Australian businesses
- Encouraging independent design and creativity
- Helping families and small teams thrive
- Choosing frames that aren’t mass-produced or “one size fits all”
- We believe eyewear should feel personal and that’s exactly what small brands deliver.
If you’re ready to find frames that truly reflect your personality, whether bold and playful or classic and refined, we’d love to show you our Miss Lou and Domani collections in store.
Because great vision deserves great frames and great frames often come from passionate small businesses, just like ours.
