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.

Staff was very helpful! They found me insurance benefits I didn’t even know I had. Exam was thorough and Dr. Sitterle explained the changes in my vision very well. As a patient with some immunity issues I really appreciated that everyone was given a mask when they entered. This is a medical facility, I’m glad they are protecting my health in every little way possible.

I've been a patient at Sitterle for several years, and the staff and doctors are always fantastic. I usually see Dr. Sitterle and he is always thorough and does a great job explaining what he is doing and why. I've been in glasses/contacts since 3rd grade, and have a family history or serious eye disease, so the extra care means a lot. I also like that it is a local doctor and not a big box store.

I needed to find a new eye doctor for myself and my daughter, since my company changed vision insurance. I found Sitterle through my insurance carrier website. I checked out the Sitterle Vision Source website and everything seemed fine and acceptably professional. When I arrived this morning, I did notice a few pieces of art that promoted religion. I don't personally feel that a doctor's office is an appropriate place to promote religion, but I let it roll off my shoulders, as I am not easily offended by any religious paraphernalia. However, as my daughter and I waited to be seen, we noticed the religious music that was being played. We also kept noticing more and more religious art and paraphernalia. It was everywhere and extremely in our faces, even with manger figurines (and this is early September). We became extremely uncomfortable. So, I decided to cancel our appointments and leave. I will never have my daughter and myself elect to receive medical care when we are not at ease with the location and how that reflects on the discernment of whoever is in charge of the facility. If anyone chooses to go to a doctor office that has religious displays and music, that is completely fine. I support everyone's right to their own religious preferences and where they think they should be displaying them (again, I feel it is unprofessional to do so at a medial care facility, but that is my own opinion), but I recognize that everyone has that choice. What I really felt was absolutely NOT okay was that the Sitterle Vision Source website gave me no warning/reason to expect what I walked into today. If you want to display your religion in a doctor office, then it is reasonable to expect any of the pictures on your website or even one of the many religious text quotes you had on the wall, or something to indicate what to expect on the website, so that future patients aren't feeling blindsided and uncomfortable on their first visit. If I had any warning to expect this, I would have just respectfully decided it wasn't the best option for us and went about my business and found somewhere else. I feel both deceived and disturbed today, and for that reason, I am leaving a bad review. This shows an alarming lack of professionalism and awareness I expect in the medical field. And no, I clearly was not a fit for your company. If you had honestly indicated that on your website, I would have respectfully not chosen this place for myself. However, you are not transparent and honesty about your proselytizing and I was not given the option to make that choice for myself. Imagine how you would feel if you went into a medical provider office for the first time that happened to display art and play music that expressed their religious faith if it was Satanism. You would probably be uncomfortable, I'd imagine. That is how I felt. The problem isn't your religion, the problem is that you aren't honest about what I should have expected, which shows a lack of consideration. Unfortunately, in my personal experience, this mindset of lack of consideration for other views and empathy towards anyone with a different belief system than your own is severely missing in Christians. That is why I would have politely just skipped over this option if you had done literally anything to indicated this on your website. Highly unprofessional and disturbing in the medical field.
