Do I need blue-light protection glasses?
Blue light is a growing problem ever since everyone around the world has access to some type of technology (cellphones, tablets, computers, tv). Click here to read more about why blue light is bad for our eyes. Moreover, if you have eye strain, eye fatigue, or difficulty sleeping at night, you may benefit from using blue-light filtering lenses. In addition, blue light also offers additional UV protection from the sun. We offer high index prescription as well as non prescription blue light lenses, so come in and let us help you pick the right glasses for you!
Is it worth it to buy frames online?
The truth is, if cost is a major factor for you and you’re not looking for the best sharpness in your vision in the longer distances. Individuals with light prescriptions can get away with online glasses without much issue. The disadvantage of online glasses is that they can’t get your measurements accurately; especially your ocular height as that is required in person. Ocular height measurements are essential when your prescription are worse, starting in the +/- 2.00 power or higher. It’s best if you search for a, “glasses store near me” and go in to get your measurements take from a licensed optician. I would avoid buying progressive lenses online altogether as having your ocular height is an absolute must!
