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.

The eye exam was very short. I have not gotten my glasses yet but I am concerned of how good the prescription will be. I didn’t get my glasses from them because I thought their prices were rather high. I think their deal is good for a simple prescription but I needed progressive lenses. I wanted progressive non glare scratch resistant photo gray lenses the total was over four hundred and seventy dollars. I took the prescription to Costco and their total for the same options was under two fifty. That is a big difference. I have gotten glasses from Costco before and was very happy with the quality.

I had the best experience with Dr. Shawki. She is very knowledgeable, and pay attention to details. Definitely she is one of the best eye doctors out there. Totally recommend her to anyone. The whole staff was very professional and nice.

The staff were ok when I got there. Only positive. However, it was a waste of since they didn’t accept my insurance.I don’t understand why no one said anything after I was first told they did. I filed all my info & filled out the pages of documents online only to show up and them say we don’t take it. I could have made an appt with any other place, but ended up having to rebook elsewhere much later. Verify all your info before you book with them. My boyfriend had the same issue.Made sure of his insurance & they didn’t take it.
Kasey Sequeira | Rating: 1 | Holmdel Spare Pair Vision Center
I had a terrible experience at this facility. Optometrist Lin was great. He was the only reason I had gone here for the last few years. The desk staff have always been less then cheerful nor courteous. Long story short I had an insurance issue and Spare Pair had means to rectify the situation and they refused. The reason the experience was terrible was because of the way the Manager Michele and the Owner Jeff handled the situation and the way I was spoken to. Michele was not compassionate and the Owner Jeff was extremely rude and unprofessional.

I’ve visited the West Long Branch location previously with my son. Today I took my hubby to pick out and purchase glasses but we were turned away at the door ( only sign have a list of if you have these symptoms not to come in) due to not having a mask. So I decided to try another location (Holmdel) there was a sign clearly posted on the door need a mask. Well I was glad I didn’t give up. Hands down much better experience and we purchased two pairs of glasses. Thank you to the phenomenal staff at the Holmdel location.
