<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>The optical business was started by Angiolino Bovesi in 1945.<\/p>\n
In this year, Angiolino Bovesi, after graduating as an Optician, started the Optical business in the photography store opened by his father Cesare in 1914.<\/p>\n
In the mid-1960s Ottica Bovesi began using progressive lenses, invented a few months earlier by Essilor, while in the 1970s it began fitting rigid and semi-rigid contact lenses.<\/p>\n
At the end of the 1970s his son Paolo joined the company, fresh from his studies and a diploma as an optician from the Arcetri School of Optics at the Florence Observatory of Astrophysics.<\/p>\n
The business expands, new technologies for measuring eyesight are introduced, and a new super-technological laboratory for lens assembly is built, where all our glasses are made.<\/p>\n
Progressive lenses come out of the pioneering phase, gaining new commercial spaces, and soft contact lenses become the stars of the industry.<\/p>\n
From the 1990s optometry becomes the qualifying point of the company’s activity allowing the optimization of vision measurement and the use of new generation progressive lenses.<\/p>\n
Today Paolo Bovesi is joined by his son Alessandro, who represents the third generation of opticians in the Bovesi family. Alessandro holds a degree in Optics and specialized by earning a diploma as an Optometrist.<\/p>\n
Our 70 years of business have handled 3 generations of clients and today our expertise is dedicated to solving your visual problems.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
