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.

Everyone at Redstone Family Vision was absolutely wonderful! From the time I walked in to the time I left with my new prescription glasses on the way. I got five choices of eye doctors from my insurance company and I'm so happy that I picked Redstone family visioned to get my eye exam, diagnosis and prescription glasses ordered. Would recommend to anyone and everyone who cares about their vision and the way they are treated during the exam.

Today I had my annual vision exam. My first time visiting Red Stone Family Vision. Such an awesome experience. Dr. Patel and her staff are very knowledgeable, professional, and helpful. The office is extremely clean and welcoming. I highly recommend their services!

I agree with the other reviews Doris/Dori is GREAT! But unfortunately she retired in 10/2021. I had COMPLETE TRUST and GREAT EXPERIENCE with Dori. However, I know that they have been SEVERELY UNDERSTAFFED and it does not appear that Walmart really cares. My last glasses were just so-so. I think the jury is out on their service and their products. I am actually taking my glassed back tomorrow. If Dori was there, I would give her 5 stars, but in looking at the big picture, I am less than thrilled with their optical service. Please bring Dori back!

Chavis and the optometrist on duty this morning truly made my day. Upon entering Chavis greeted me and quickly responded to my concerns as I thought my glasses were unrepairable. After not being able to find frames to fit my lenses on the wall, she asked if it was ok to check with the optometrist to see if he can repair them. He was hesitant but said he would try his best and not even 5 minutes later Chavis came back with them better than ever. I was so happy because I'm from out of town and needed my glasses desperately. Just wanna thank u guys so much!

Was in yesterday to get a band for my nephew’s glasses that weren’t fitting properly. We received the warmest welcome from Chavis, the associate who greeted us She adjusted them, replaced nose pads, cleaned them, and picked out the proper headband for them with a smile on her face! In a time where it’s often more convenient to shop online, Chavis was a shining example of great customer service, and she went above and beyond that. My nephew normally does to another office for glasses, but the care and consideration was so above average, I’m making an appointment to start his eye care needs at WalMart, because I know Chavis and her coworkers will do a great job while making us feel welcomed. Thank you Chavis! That interaction stayed with me all day!
