EYEWEAR

Eyeglasses should make you look and feel great. Our licensed opticians with over 20 years experience can help you choose the eyewear you need to compliment your lifestyle. Our external laboratory ensures the fastest service, quality and accuracy in fabricating your eyeglasses. We have three Doctors of Optometry available to provide eye exams, however if you already have a current prescription we will be happy to fill that for you.

· Frames
We have a wide selection of frames to choose from including designers such as Calvin Klein, Carrera, Coach, Disney, Fendi, Juicy Couture, Kazuo Kawasaki, Michael Kors, Nautica, Nike, Silhouette, Valentino and many others. We also carry a large selection of non-designer frames that look just as nice as designer frames but cost less.

· Lenses
We offer a wide variety of spectacle lenses to meet your needs. We fit most progressive lens wearers (no-line bifocals) with a type of lens known as Varilux. The Varilux lenses come in many different varieties to fit most types of frames whether they are small or large.

Varilux brand of progressive lenses or “no-line” bifocals is highly recommended by our doctors. We trust the technology of this lens above all. Not only does Varilux allow you to see near and far but it also gives you that intermediate range we sometimes forget about. With the technology of the Varilux always advancing you can feel confident in knowing that there will always be a specific Varilux lens made to meet your own personal vision needs. For more information on Varilux please click on their logo.

We fit all children in an impact resistant, scratch resistant and UV filtered lens known as polycarbonate. Polycarbonate lenses are also thinner and lighter than most plastic lenses, so we even fit adults with them. This type of lens is available in single vision, bifocal and progressive lenses.

Hi-index lenses are also available for your convenience. Hi-index is the thinnest lens available at this time.

· Transitions

This type of lens offers the advantage of having sunglasses with you at all times. When you are inside your glasses are clear and when you step outdoors they turn into sunglasses. This process only takes seconds and gives you the protection you need from the sun. These lenses are currently available in two tints, brown and grey. They are also available in different types of prescription lenses. Click the Transitions logo above for more information on their website.

· Crizal

These anti-reflective lenses offers reduced glare, providing 10-12% clearer vision. Crizal can give you sharper, clearer, more comfortable vision by reducing glare, allowing more light to enter the eye. This is especially important if you work on a computer or have difficultly with night driving. These lenses are scratch resistant and are available in single vision, bifocals and progressives. Please click on the Crizal logo for more information.

· Eyewear Satisfaction
We guarantee your satisfaction. We are willing to do anything in our power to make you happy. Our eyeglass frames come with manufacturer warranties. Depending on your insurance company we honor all warranty policies they provide. We do carry an extensive amount of frames; some are design copies that look great. But please keep in mind that an inexpensive copy may lack the quality that real designer frames have.

Our doctor's feel so strongly about protective sun wear that they have dedicated an entire room to sunglasses. Every day - in every season – we are exposed to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun. Most of the time we don't even realize it, as UV radiation is invisible to the eye. Prolonged exposure can lead to many eye problems such as cataracts, macular degeneration and cancerous tumors. This is why you should make sure you and your family are always wearing sunglasses with at least 99% UV protection at all times.

· The Best Sunglass Lens ·

· Polarized Lenses
These lenses are especially important for outdoor people that require precise vision with minimal glare. Polarized lenses are unique lenses that work similarly to a Venetian blind. A blind only lets in light at certain angles, which is how a polarized lens works. With the removal of the sun's glare, objects become more distinct and are seen in their true colors. Reduced glare off water, roads, and other objects make the polarized lens a favorite for water sports, fishing, cycling, driving and many other outdoor activities.

Normal Glare without Polarized Lenses
Glare is evident without Polarized Lenses

Glare is eliminated with Polarized Lenses

Polarized lens materials include plastic, high index plastic, glass and polycarbonate.
Lens styles include single vision, bifocal and progressive lenses.
Colors include gray and brown.
Polarized lenses decrease driving fatigue. Because much of the light reflected from large areas of pavement is polarized, those who do a lot of driving will benefit from polarized lenses.
Comfort at the beach is increased. Sand and water are both sources of glare, making these lenses especially appropriate. Colors are more brilliant.
Bright snowy days are blinding. Snow is highly reflective. Those who are out working or driving in the snow will benefit from using polarized lenses.
Overall, polarized lenses provide many wonderful benefits.

As you can see our doctors have many reasons to recommend polarized lenses to all Sunglass wearers. Not only does UV protection and Polarization help negate the development of cataracts, but there is also a recent study that polarized lenses may reduce the development of Age-Related Macular Degeneration.
