Why do eyeglasses cost so much?
Eyeglasses are a complex optical device that is manufactured with high-precision equipment. Often expensive materials are used for the glasses. All of this explains why eyeglasses can be expensive.
What should you do before buying glasses?
Let's look at what to look for when buying eyeglasses. The first is, of course, quality. The second is the choice of lenses of glasses. Here we focus attention on the material: they can be either glass or plastic. The third is the choice of frames.
What's the difference between expensive glasses and cheap glasses for vision?
The quality and accordingly the price of the lens depends on the presence of coatings on the lenses. The higher the price, the more coatings on the lens. Coatings make our vision more comfortable. Lens manufacturers do not stand still and improve the quality of lenses.
How do I know which glasses fit my face?
It's best if the width of the frame is equal to or slightly larger than the widest part of your face. The upper line of the frames should coincide with the line of eyebrows. Smooth shapes of glasses will emphasize rounded curves of the face. To emphasize high cheekbones choose the "butterfly" or "cat-eye" glasses.
Where can I see better with glasses or contact lenses?
With lenses, you can see better, so it turns out that extra obstacles don't distort the image. Lenses don't shed dust, don't catch glare from the sun and don't distort peripheral vision-no matter where we look, the image stays sharp.

I’ve been coming to Silicon Valley Optometry Center for over 4 years, and the service is always outstanding! Dr. Lucy Wun is one of the friendliest and nicest people I’ve met. The Ortho-K lenses have improved my vision immensely.

Put it simple: do not go to this store! The attitude is rude, service is unprofessional, slow and unresponsive. They will keep delay your order, or even break you glass with unprofessional handling. They don't really care about customer but just money. Google doesn't allow posting url here, if anyone want to go please see my full review on yelp before making decision.

I saw a negative review before I visited saying Dr lee had a patronizing attitude to her patient and I didn’t care and still went. Uhh, that review was right. I should have not gone. Dr. Lee was arrogant and the overall experience was just not comfortable. Dr. Lee kept blaming me for having bad vision and used that as an excuse for not having my trial lens in stock because my vision is soo bad. Uhhh but like that’s the reason I’m here? So I waited two wks for my trial lens to come and before I had the time to try it for the week, which is normally what happens when I order prescription elsewhere, they shipped me a whole year of prescription that doesn’t fit my eyes comfortably. On a unrelated note, Dr. Lee felt the need to keep correcting my pronunciation throughout the visit like she were an ESL teacher. It was not a positive experience and I probably wouldn’t go back there again. Oh and they didn’t give me my prescription after my exam. They only give u if you requested it so that you will order glasses with them Idk. But I thought it’s by law, you are required to give ur patient the prescription. I had to requested it twice and they finally sent me my prescription via email two days after my exam after 3 calls.

I had a negative experience with Dr. Jennifer Lee. First of all, her tone was very patronizing. She seemed impatient with me from the start, and anytime I brought up a clarifying question or concern, she made me feel stupid for even asking it. Secondly… I have high myopia. Rather than treating it like a serious medical condition, she kept making unnecessary comments about how terrible my eyes are. She even made jokes about having coke-bottle lenses and being an avid reader. Seriously? I just wanted treatment for my condition. I didn’t come there to get roasted for having it. Overall I felt like she had a very unprofessional demeanor. She failed to create a compassionate environment for me as her patient, and that eroded my trust in her care.

I have been a patient of Dr. Kraig Abe since 2015, and I can't be happier with his care and services provided. Yoko is always quick to accommodate me with appointments, and Dr. Abe is extremely conscientious, professional and precise in his craft. The office is extremely clean, equipped with all the latest technology, and is conveniently located on Stevens Creek Blvd in Cupertino. Highly recommend to anyone in search of the best optometrist at reasonable prices.
