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.

Very unprofessional. I came in for an exam, which went fine, and was looking to purchase new glasses. I picked out a frame after my exam and the store said they would call me when they were in. I was called about a week later that my glasses were in. When I came to pick them up, I was given someone else's glasses with the same last name. I could totally understand this happening and the store making a mistake, and admittedly I should have said that I wanted to try them on to make sure they were mine. But I was never even given the option to do so! The real issue is that I came back to the store literally a week later to let them know my glasses were wrong and no one even called me to let me know they made a mistake! The store employees also acted very nonchalant about it when I said no one called me. If I hadn't come a 2nd time I don't think they would have called me at all! They even said the other customer was wondering where their glasses were. Thankfully my glasses were there when I came back. But regardless, if you had 2 customers with the same last name and you gave one customer the other pair of glasses that was not theirs, they totally should have had the sense to call!

I like going to this doctor. He is knowlegable and does a good exam quickly. I have never waited more than 5 minutes for my appointment. Good variety of glasses frames, and he is very helpful with helping you get the best values for what your insurance covers.

The doctor, Emily and the staff are friendly and knowledgeable. I feel that went above and beyond to make certain my glasses were correct. They called as soon as my glasses were in. I would highly recommend this office.

Just had a great first time experience here. I stopped by Fashion Optics to shop for Maui Jim sunglasses. I was very impressed with how knowledgeable, helpful, and honest the owner Jack was. The service I received was outstanding. Jack shared great feedback about what frames work best for my face shape. He was very patient, and was able to quickly suggest the best fitting sunglasses for me. I’m very happy with my purchase and will be coming back for all my family’s eyewear needs.

The owner refused to do measurements for my eyeglasses. I have a high prescription, so it's important. He kept yelling that I needed cheap eyeglasses and that they make quality ones. I also asked if he would give me a certificate of authenticity for Crizal lenses, but he got mad at me again. I thought I had a right to know if I was paying over $350. He told me to look somewhere else. If he doesn't customize eyeglasses, he should have just said so.
