"Food and travel are both huge parts of my life, professionally and personally," said Robert Irvine. "As a long-time Transitions lens wearer, it means everything to have eyewear that enhances my vision and keeps my eyes comfortable by adapting to changing light conditions, allowing me to truly appreciate the beautiful sights everywhere I go. And because food is also always top of mind for me, I make sure to eat meals rich in vitamins and nutrients that, like my eyewear, will benefit and help maintain the health of my eyes, too."
Turning meals into sightseeing opportunities by trying new foods, exploring restaurants that use local flavors and eating outdoors to get the best views is the perfect combination to making the most of your dining experiences throughout your travels. Plus, eating foods with eye health benefits such as spinach, carrots, nuts, blackberries and grapes, which are rich in vitamins A, C, E and beta-carotene, can also impact your overall visual health so you can see your best. In addition, wearing proper eyewear such as Transitions lenses to enhance your vision – and which the majority (75 percent) of consumers report also keep their eyes comfortable by eliminating glare, according to a recent study conducted by Transitions Optical – can help provide the best outdoor dining and sightseeing experiences.
"At Transitions Optical, we're committed to raising awareness about the importance of proper eye care," said Patience Cook, associate director, North America marketing, Transitions Optical. "Along with our brand ambassador Robert Irvine, we hope to encourage people to discover how Transitions lenses allow people to always see life in the best light, whether traveling to new places or spending time at home with the family."
Robert Irvine will participate this weekend, Sept. 26 – 27, at the Epcot® International Food & Wine Festival at the Walt Disney World® Resort in Lake Buena Vista, Fla., by conducting several cooking demos featuring some of his signature recipes. Festival attendees will also have the opportunity to experience enhanced vision with Transitions® Trial Decals™, allowing them to demo the latest in adaptive lens technology through their own clear prescription lenses.
