About Felix

Felix Milman started out in the fashion industry, working at several upscale retail clothing stores where he achieved top sales goals and developed a sense of passion for the fashion world. A few years later, he switched gears and went to work for an optometrist, conducting various tests on patients from basic vision screenings to identifying complex eye diseases. This job piqued his interest in the optical field and he soon began working as an apprentice optician at various high-end optical shops. In addition to selling eyewear, he learned how to cut and airbrush lenses, quickly becoming a highly-skilled technician. Recently, eyeglasses have evolved from being simply a medical device to a fashion accessory. In the fashion industry, Felix discovered that he had an affinity for the European flair. This passion carried over into the optical field and soon he began traveling to eyeglass shows in places like New York, Las Vegas and Milan, seeking out unique lines of European brand eyewear. Felix enjoys selling and wearing the high-quality eyewear that Romanelli Optix carries.
