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.

My first visit was pleasant. My second visit was pleasant. When I had to go back a THIRD time over the same pair of glasses, it was very rude. They do NOT tell you that you can't get a refund on a purchase when they screw it up. I mean, seriously....I loved both pair of glasses I chose and paid for, but one pair was causing me serious headaches. Obviously, though they say there's nothing wrong with them, there's something off in the lenses as I can feel my eye pulling to the left when I put them on. I was told, hatefully, that one time and one time only I can exchange the glasses. I found nothing even close to what I like. Now, I'm stuck with a pair of glasses I will not be able to wear until my insurance pays for new glasses.

Super friendly and helpful. She had me in and out in no time. Told me it would be at least 2 hours before my glasses were ready. First pair was done 11 min. after I left. I've been coming here for the last 3 years and will continue to come back. Save your time and just come here first. You can get an eye exam, and glasses all before lunch.

Beatrice was wonderful. She was very kind, listened well, knowledgeable, smiled, friendly, approachable and provided professional excellent service. I loved and appreciated her patience and service. It’s hard to find this type of service anymore. I will refer her business. Tomika

I have been to quite a few optometrists. I took my 4 yr old daughter in to see Dr. Pastilong for the first time yesterday. She and the whole staff were wonderful. Dr. Pastilong was thorough and completely informative of what her diagnosis is and what to expect. She’s positive and it made me confident knowing she cares and is going to make sure my daughter gets the best treatment as soon as possible to correct her vision. She was also great and friendly with my 4 year old. It made my 4 year old feel comfortable and trusting. I would recommend this office to anyone.

I called to make an appointment for my daughter and was told they wouldn’t see her unless the insurance card was provided on the phone well before the appointment. I asked them if I could simply bring the insurance card to the appointment because we didn’t have the physical card at the time. I told them I knew they were a covered optometrist because I found them through the doctor list provided by our insurance company but they refused to budge on booking the appointment. Absolute incompetence and ignorance.
