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 family has come to this office for our eye care and yearly check up. The doctor is very thorough and knowledgeable with the exam. The technology seems up to date. They are on time with the appointment time given to us. No wait time so far. The staff is helpful every time we try to pick out glasses. I highly recommend this office!

I want to share what my “walk-in” experience was like. I walked in one day tired, frustrated, feed-up and desperate after surfing the internet endlessly trying to find a place who would accept my insurance and me not having to wait months to be seen! The ladies at the desk were obviously busy however, they kindly and patiently stopped to assist me while I waited on the phone for my insurance company to confirm coverage and Eyecare as as an approved site. Before I could end the call the nice reception informed me that, they could accept my insurance and have me in to be seen the next day. Visiting Dr. Andy for a thorough examination was a pleasure. He had no I idea that I was actually seeking this appointment with him as a 2nd opinion. Needless to say he was right on point in terms of the doctor’s evaluation from Mass Eye and Ear. Unfortunately, I am still waiting for an appointment at MEA that’s scheduled for May “the soonest”’to get an examine and a new pair of glasses. Dr. Andy did a great, job examining, dilating and fitting me for glasses at my very 1st appointment. Today I picked up my glasses within a week’s time….. What a blessing to see again! When I called today to see if they were ready Trudy and Maria, was right on it to make sure my glasses were there and told me to feel free to come right in to pick them up! It’s a pleasure to know I can go right in my own neighborhood to be served by professionals who took the time and cared enough to address my situation!

The staff was very personable! Renaud ensured that the glasses I selected fit perfectly and also matched my style. It felt like we were on the same page from the moment I walked into the office. This was easily the best experience I've dealt with when selecting contacts and glasses!

I gave them a 3 because the woman who does the phone calls is RUDE! I have been coming hear for 2 years and bring 3 children hear and have never had an issue with Dr Snow and she is wonderful UNFORTUNATELY HER DESK STAFF NEED TO LEARN SOME CUSTOMER SERVICE EDICATE AND COULD PROBABLY USE MANNERS AS WELL. I have left a voicemail to ask Dr Snow to return my call we shall see if the desk person allows her to receive the message or not. If I dont get a call back in 24hrs I guess I will take my business else where let's just remember that's 4 ppl leaving not just 1 although after the treatment I just received by the desk person Idk why I should come back or bring my children for that matter especially after how she just treated me hanging up on me after attempting to be argumentative. She only hung up cause I said I wanted to speak with her boss Lack Of Professionalism. Dont do the crime if u can't do the time.
