As an 8 year old child, Laivi Freundlich went to the Optician with his mom for his annual eye exam. The result would change his life forever… he needed glasses. It was from that moment that Laivi’s passion for fashion eyewear was born, collecting over 100 pairs of his own personal glasses from the world’s top designers. But something was missing! Top quality, Funky, affordable eyewear.

Eyefunc was launched at Vision Expo East 2007 in New York, with the intent of living up to its brand name EYE-FUNC. Based upon the American success, it was decided to introduce a new collection at the Silmo fair in Paris 2007. Eyefunc Europe is born. Ever since the fall of 2007, we have maintained a fully functioning, International Warehouse in Holland. Approximately 30 new models are presented twice yearly at the Eyewear industries largest exhibitions, Silmo and Mido. In 2015 Cees & Kitty Westland bought Eyefunc Europe. Kitty is now the exclusive designer of EYEFUNC whilst Cees takes care of all daily business. Together with Laivi in New York and our cherished network of international clients, we have a solid team with vast experience in all areas which guarantees a strong, sustainable growth for the international brand Eyefunc.
