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.

Great experience as always. I've been a customer for many years and even though I live in the city now I still drive an hour to get the quality care and fabulous selection of eye ware. Assure Vision is a great place and I recommend it to everyone.

Being a “Long Time” patient at AssureVision, I have been to Both of their locations, Arlington Heights, (near my home) and Glenview, (near my work). I was thrilled to find out they now have a Third location in Downtown Barrington, (even closer to my home). The Barrington office is easy to find (next to Egg Harbor Café) and has great parking available. All the AssureVision office are beautifully decorated with “State of the Art” Equipment, but the Barrington Office is to die for. The décor is absolutely beautiful, and as always, in my opinion, the best selection of exclusive designer frames, in the NW Burbs. Once again I was given the best and most through Exam I have had since I started going to them “Many Years” ago. They promote themselves as a Family Optometrist, and you truly feel like one of the family when they advise you on what NOT to get, as well as what would be BEST for you. I was taken care of by Skip, (I believe he was the General Manager), and he explained in detail what options I had. It is a pleasure to work with a Family Practice that has your best interests in mind, rather than one of these “Big Box Stores”, that only cares what commission the salesperson can get. Proof is in the pudding, AssureVision continues to grow and expand, simply because, they have the best ethics, and treat you like family. I have only had my new glasses for a few weeks now, and as all the other pairs I have purchased there, continue to get compliment after compliment. Thank You AssureVision, you have a Patient (and my Family) for life.

WONDERFUL experience. The receptionist was warm and inviting. Dr. Eugenia Lamazov had a very pleasant demeanor. She listened, explained everything, and addressed all my concerns during my initial exam. Would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Lomazov at Assure Vision .
