​​​​​​​Choosing Function AND Fashion

While glasses are a great way to express personal style there should be more than just fashion in mind when making your selection. Our opticians will help evaluate:

• your facial features and how the glasses sit on your face shape

• prescription and measurement requirements (some prescriptions require larger or smaller lenses to perform their best)

• vision needs

​​​​Measurements

The fabrication of your prescription involves many precise, highly individual measurements including your pupillary distance, multifocal measurements (including those for bifocals, trifocals and progressives,) and finding the ocular center of the lenses of your chosen frames. These measurements are as unique as the wearer and getting them correct ensures your best vision possible. All of these measurements vary not only by person but also by how the frame fits you, the type of lenses you select, and your specific facial features. That is why it is essential that the person doing the measurements has the proper educational background to get it right.
