Kid's Eyewear or Kids Eyewear

Hi all,

I'm creating a brand selling kid's eyewear.
Regarding our logo, we would like to add Kid's Eyewear or Kids Eyewear, don't know which is the correct one.

I have seen both cases.
Of course, without the apostrophe it has a better visual appearance. But, i need to know which is the correct option.
Also, i have seen with the apostrophe at the end of the word (kids' eyewear), don't know why is like this sometimes.

Thanks for the help.
(Sorry for my English)

Kid's Eyewear would mean eyewear for just one child. Kids' Eyewear would mean eyewear for children in general, so it's probably what you are looking for.

I wasn't exactly sure, so I did a search and found this article, which says it is okay:

Anyone else have any thoughts?
