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.

Harry Roth is one of a kind. I had an older pair of frames to which I'm attached. Most recently when I visited my ophthalmologist for a new prescription, the local optician that I used to go told me that they don't send away frames for repair anymore (which they HAD DONE in the past). They told me "nobody does that anymore." WRONG--Harry does and did, saving me the expense of buying new (and from my point of view less suitable) frames. I live 30 minutes away, but I wouldn't go anywhere else for my glasses and lenses.

My eyeglass nose pad was broken so I called to find out if I can bring it in and get it fixed. I brought the glasses in and this nice gentleman which I assume is the owner fixed it for free and without asking if the glasses were bought there which it wasn't because they were bought in Korea. He was very nice and this kind of genuine customer service is something that I really appreciate and now he has a customer for life. Thank you.

There is no substitute for years of experience, trend insight and customer relationship building. Harry, Eye Q's proprietor, is supremely professional in all these aspects including being an all around great person. My wife and I bought eyewear from his boutique during a seamless, stress-free experience. We highly recommend him as he will most likely become your “go-to” eyewear authority for life.

After years of being treated not too nicely at another store, I found Eye Q and have a wonderful experience. Finding new glasses and being fitted properly was a pleasure, even during the pandemic. Beautiful selection and reasonable prices, great and caring customer service. New customer for life!
