Grocery stores avoid dead eyewear inventory by managing readers at the power level and using local store data to control sunglass depth.
Protect reader function without overduplicating
Keep useful power breadth, then put extra depth behind powers that repeatedly reorder.

Chain or banner totals can hide slow inventory at individual locations. Track aging and reorders by store.
Rebalance continuously
Move investment toward powers and styles that sell rather than rebuilding the opening allocation.
