The BY7001 belongs on the counters of businesses that sell eyewear as an everyday or impulse purchase. Pharmacies are a clear example: customers waiting for a prescription or paying at the till can pick up ready readers or a pair of sunglasses from a display in front of them. Gift shops, travel kiosks, petrol station shops and convenience stores near beaches or resorts use it in the same way for sunglasses.
Optical practices use a countertop display at the reception or dispensing desk. It can hold readers, sunglasses or a small set of featured frames for customers to browse while they wait to check in, collect glasses or pay. Eyewear boutiques use it on a styling table or beside the till to show a new collection or a few popular styles.
In hospital eye departments and university optometry clinics, a countertop unit at the dispensing or reception desk keeps a small frame or reader selection within reach of patients during their visit.
The people working with it are pharmacy assistants, receptionists, optical assistants and shop staff, usually the same people who serve at the counter. They refill empty positions between customers, swap in seasonal sunglasses and keep each panel tidy. Managers decide which counter it sits on and which lines it carries.
At trade shows, markets and pop-up events, its countertop size suits a table on a stand, giving visitors a compact eyewear selection to try. Having no electrical parts, it can be set down on any flat surface, from a trestle table to a shop counter.
