Your prescription is only the starting point. Properly fitted lenses take into account a range of factors:

• Fit and Comfort: Lenses need to align perfectly with your eyes for optimal vision and comfort.
• Material: Different materials offer varying levels of durability, weight, and functionality.
• Coatings: Different coatings are appropriate for different people and situations. Is a blue-blocking filter important for your lifestyle? Would you benefit from tinted lenses? Would you like lenses that go dark in the sunlight and clear indoors? Should your sunglasses be polarized?
• Customization: One size does not fit all—lenses should be tailored to your specific prescription and lifestyle. We ask a lot of questions regarding your workspace and hobbies to understand how you use your eyes. In your appointment, we are analyzing your visual system to determine what lenses will suit you best. Have you found it difficult to adjust to a pair of glasses in the past? There are often ways to customize the prescription and lenses to make adapting to a new pair of glasses easier.

When you purchase glasses from an optometrist, you receive:

• Accurate and custom measurements to ensure the perfect fit.
• The best lens materials, designs, and coatings tailored to your lifestyle.
• Detailed inspections and quality control, so you can trust your glasses to perform flawlessly.
• Adjustments if the glasses are not working up to your expectations.
