Frame Styles
Your new glasses not only function as a device to help you see better, but also make a fashion statement. When choosing a frame, the shape, size and color of the frame should enhance your eyes, complement your skin tone and play up the best features of your face shape. Most people have a need for more than one pair of glasses, such as one for everyday wear and another for outdoor activities. Sunglasses are a great second pair that can provide superior protections against the elements, while enjoying the great outdoors. Having a spare pair for emergencies can come also come in handy.
Sunglasses
Sunglasses protect your eyes from harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation, which is present even on cloudy days. Quality sun-wear provides 100 percent UV protection and can significantly reduce the risk of vision problems caused by sunlight such as cataracts and macular degeneration. Polarized lenses provide superior vision eliminating glare from the reflected sunlight. By blocking unwanted glare, these lenses make objects brighter,clearer and more distinct and reduce eyestrain due to squinting.
Anti-Reflective Lenses
Anti -reflective treatments are a necessity for all glasses wearers regardless of age. With all the digital devices and newer brighter headlights on cars, the amount of glare our eyes are exposed too is higher than ever before. This glare creates halos and glare, especially at night and can cause eye strain, eye fatigue and headaches. A good anti-reflective treatment will eliminate that glare making it easier to drive, use a computer for longer periods of time all while providing superior scratch protection for your lenses.
As you can see, lenses and frames are a very personal choice with a lot of options to consider. Our doctors and staff have the experience to guide you toward eye-wear selections that are comfortable, fashionable and work to meet all of your visual needs.
