The city is also the world's largest production base for spectacle lenses, Asia's largest eyewear distribution center and China's largest eyewear production base. The eyewear industry in the city traces its origin to the 1960s and employs 50,000 people spread across 1,600 companies. In 2019, 23 million blue-light-blocking spectacle lenses were sold in Danyang.
