ISO someone to 3D print a pair of glasses for my visually impaired daughter. My daughter has a visual impairment called Leber’s Congenital Amaurosis with extreme photophobia which causes her to be very light sensitive. She currently wears glasses with dark red tinted lenses; however when she is outdoors light seeps in on the top, sides and bottom of the frames which is very uncomfortable and somewhat painful for her. I have searched high and low for a child’s frame that fits her face snug enough to block out the light but that doesn’t hug her face so much that her eye lashes touch the frame, somewhat of fit-over frame or something similar to welder’s glasses. I found a file on Grabcad that I think would be perfect, https://grabcad.com/library/375-designs-protective-sunglasses-for-children-1 1. I am looking for someone in my area who could print them for me. Thank you.
Look for Bryan’s Hub! He is one of the best out there and is very easy to work with. His printers make high quality parts and he is very knowledgable about the field of 3D printing.
I would agree additionally with Gary. A flexible material would most likely be best for printing, and Bryan’s Hub most likely does print in flexible plastic.
Ha! Those glasses are certainly fun but not really practical for everyday use. Thanks for the tip on the semi flex material! I too am very surprised at the lack of responses but I’m determined to find someone who can do this! These are the glasses I’m trying to have made.
