Prescription Survey Out!

Thank you all for filling out the previous survey, 88% of our backers have complete the survey in the past week. If you haven’t seen the email reminders or if you can’t find the emails, please let us know.

The prescription survey was sent out this morning to prescription lens backers. The survey was sent via Survey Monkey because they are compliant with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). The email has the title “Prescription Survey For Your Falcon I Sunglasses”, so be sure to check your spam folder if you can’t find it.

We've had the chance to meet and chat with many of our backers on the east coast. We will be in the Bay Area then Canada within the next two months, so don't be alarmed if you get a message from us asking to meet up :)

Thank you for again for believing in us!

Survey Is Out!

Dear backers,

Thank you for your patience, we’ve finally finished setting up the survey on Backerkit, and are now ready to take your personalization options.

You should have received the survey in your inbox, if not, please check your spam folder, the email would come from “[email protected]” with the subject line "Response Needed -- Get your reward for Falcon 1: World's Best Fitting Sunglasses".

If you purchased prescription or photochromic lenses, you will receive an email from us after you fill out this survey for your prescription information.

Again, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at [email protected] if you have any questions. We are always here to assist.

Survey Coming Soon

Hi everyone! First of all, thank you to all the backers who responded to our emails and provided us with valuable inputs, your kind words meant the world to us. For those who haven't read the email, please be sure to check your spam folder.

We are working on finalizing the survey, it's taken us longer than expected as the number of available options makes the survey complicated to set up. We are working closely with Backerkit to make sure all the details are in place.

If you haven't heard, we were featured in the May issue of Triathlete Magazine! Pick up a copy and turn to Page 40 :)

We were also featured on "Cutting Edge" on WCVB last week, they did a great job showcasing our technology.

One last thing, the referral program is still in effect - if you are interested in participating, and receiving a $50 pre-paid VISA card, please email us at [email protected] and we'll send you a unique referral link.

Thank you all again! We couldn't have done it without you. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out whenever.
