The Panel That Broke the Mold

Collab Fest hosted by HerGRRU Magazine wasn’t your average business panel—it was a collision of powerhouse women rewriting the rules of entrepreneurship. Our  award winning SHE-EO, Crystal Crawford, sat alongside four other industry game-changers, and instead of gatekeeping, she dropped the real gems: community is currency.

But she didn’t just talk business. She pulled the curtain back on something most people ignore until it’s too late—their eye health.

The Fear No One Wants to Face

Here’s the truth nobody likes to say out loud:

• 80% of blindness is preventable.

• Digital screens are aging your eyes faster than your skin.

• And the majority of eyewear on the market? Fashion statements with zero real protection.

👁️ Think about it. You only get one set of eyes. Once the damage is done—UV exposure, untreated myopia, digital eye strain—there’s no “remake” or second chance.

At Collab Fest, Crystal didn’t sugarcoat it. She made it clear: protecting your vision is survival, not luxury.

Cyan AI: The Demo That Stole the Show

And because talk means nothing without action, guests experienced the Cyan AI Smart Glasses live. Imagine Bluetooth connectivity, live recording, and voice-controlled tech—all fused with fashion-forward frames. The crowd didn’t just see eyewear—they saw the future.

Innovation isn’t optional. In a world drowning in screens and artificial light, eyewear has to be more than cute. It has to be armor.

Why This Matters for Our Communities

Liberated Eyewear is more than a brand. It’s a movement. By being fully transparent about the grind of building a business, Crystal poured back into the community—showing that knowledge is power, and collaboration creates legacy.

And when it comes to eye health, she made the stakes clear: this isn’t about looking good, it’s about not going blind.

Final Word: Don’t Wait Until It’s Too Late

Collab Fest proved that when women build together, industries change. But it also reminded us of something even more urgent: your vision won’t wait.

Every day you ignore your eye health, you gamble with your future. And unlike trends, vision loss doesn’t come back in style.

👓 Liberated Eyewear is here to make sure you look bold, live boldly, and—most importantly—see boldly.
