Who is an optometrist and what does he or she do?

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.

Great experience! There was no wait time and Dr. Choi was professional, prepared and not pushy. He had the foresight to pull up old records from another venue to compare change and rate of progression in vision. I felt so much better after my exam. Also, the front desk staff was very helpful in assisting me with finding a fresh pair of glasses and the best price with my insurance. I highly recommend Kips Bay Optical!

The contact lenses they recommended to me did not fit well at all. The one on the right eye kept moving but the lady at the front desk does not allow me to schedule any further appointments to see Dr. Choi. A follow up: I scheduled the appointment later with others at the front desk but that lady’s attitude really disappointed me. I knew it was 10 minutes before the time for her to get off work but I should not be treated like that.

I've been a customer of Kips Bay Optical for over 25 years and have always gotten excellent service. This is my first visit to Dr. Choi at Kips Bay, along with his assistant Brian. Dr. Choi was professional as well as forthcoming, explaining everything he was doing. I also have many pairs of glasses, and the shop is always willing to tweek my glasses re fit, etc. when I need. This is truly a customer-oriented practice and I recommend it.
