FAQ

We recommend having an eye examination every 1-2 years for adults, every 6 months for children. However, if you have vision issues, wear corrective lenses, or have certain health conditions, more frequent exams may be necessary.

Progressive lenses are multifocal lenses that correct vision at multiple distances (far, intermediate, and near) with a smooth transition. They’re a great option for people with presbyopia (problem seeing things at near) who want an all-in-one lens solution without visible lines like the bifocal lens.

You may need progressive lenses if you struggle to focus on near and distant objects, experience frequent eye strain or headaches, or find yourself holding reading materials farther away to see clearly. Blurred vision at different distances and frequent squinting are also signs. If you notice these issues, consult an eye specialist for an assessment.

The time it takes to receive your new glasses depends on the prescription and lens type. For standard prescriptions, it usually takes 1-2 weeks. If you're ordering specialty lenses like progressives or bifocals, it may take a bit longer. For faster service, some optical shops offer same-day or next-day options. Check with us for specific timelines based on your order.

Yes, you can bring in your own frames! Our team will assess the condition of your frames and ensure they’re suitable for new lenses. Keep in mind that some frame styles may not work with certain lens types. Feel free to bring them in, and we'll guide you through the process.

If you experience eye strain, headaches, blurred vision, or dry eyes after using a computer for long periods, computer glasses may be helpful. These glasses are designed to reduce glare and optimize vision at the screen's distance. If you often find yourself squinting or adjusting your screen settings to see clearly, it might be time to consider computer glasses.

Blue light blocking lenses are designed to filter out blue light emitted by digital screens and artificial lighting. These lenses help reduce eye strain, improve sleep quality, and may lower the risk of long-term eye damage. If you spend long hours on screens or experience eye discomfort, blue light blocking lenses could be a great option for you.

To keep your glasses in great condition, clean lenses regularly with a microfiber cloth and lens cleaner. Avoid using clothing or paper towels, as they can scratch the lenses. Store your glasses in a case when not in use, and always handle them by the frames, not the lenses. Keep your glasses away from extreme heat and chemicals to maintain the lens coating.

Single-vision lenses have one prescription throughout, ideal for correcting either near or distance vision. Multifocal lenses, like bifocals or progressives, provide multiple prescriptions in one lens, allowing clear vision at various distances—near, intermediate, and far—without switching glasses.
