Glasses Inspection Held at 'Shizuoka Marathon Festa 2026'. Many Who Experienced Adjustment and Cleaning Felt an 'Improvement in Vision'.

Megane Top Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shizuoka City, Shizuoka Prefecture; President: Masahiro Tomizawa; hereafter 'Megane Ichiba'), which operates 'Megane Ichiba' nationwide, set up a glasses inspection booth at the 'Shizuoka Marathon Festa 2026' held on Saturday, March 7, 2026, performing adjustments and cleanings for 108 visitors' glasses.

Result: 70% of people are 'unaware of issues with their glasses'
During the adjustments and cleanings for visitors, it was found that approximately 70% of people had the following issues with their glasses, despite being personally unaware:
- Misalignment due to frame distortion
- Deterioration and deformation of nose pads
- Dirt and fine scratches on lenses
- Poor fit around the earpieces
According to the staff in charge, 'There are very many cases where the person has grown accustomed to the discomfort and does not notice that their glasses are in bad condition.'
Surprised comments were heard from visitors, such as 'I had no idea, but my vision is completely different after the adjustment,' and 'I only realized how dirty they were after receiving the cleaning.'
