GLASSES AND SUNGLASSES

If you need corrective lenses, you can select from a wide variety of frames and lenses in our office. Our experienced staff will assist you in finding frames that look great and suit your lens prescription. They will take measurements of your eyes to ensure that your lenses are positioned properly, and make sure your new glasses fit comfortably.

Our office features a large selection of  eyewear styles and the new no-line, ultra-thin and lightweight progressive lenses. We offer anti-reflective coatings to combat glare and photochromic lenses that remain clear indoors, but darken automatically when you go outdoors where dangerous UV rays are present.

Sun protection options for eyeglass wearers include prescription sunglasses, clip-on or magnetic sunglasses that attach to regular glasses, and photochromics like Transitions -- prescription lenses that darken automatically when UV rays are present. These lenses block out 100 percent of UV radiation automatically. They remain clear indoors, but automatically block UV rays outdoors by becoming dark when dangerous rays are present.

CONTACT LENSES

Our doctors fit various kinds of contact lenses based on each individual's unique vision problems. We offer the broadest possible choice of lenses available, including the industry's most recent, proven innovations.Fitting contact lenses has become a key part of this practice. By keeping up with the latest materials and designs available, selecting the most appropriate care system, determining an accurate assessment of each patient's ocular conditions and visual needs, and by patient persistence, even the most difficult of fits can be successfully achieved.
A good contact lens fit begins with a thorough eye evaluation to insure the most up to date Rx, and to rule out any pre-existing conditions that could interfere with contact lens wear. We will follow-up the initial fit to promote healthy long term wear.

Long-term follow-up will be urged to monitor the condition of the contact lens, that proper lens hygiene is being maintained, and that updates in contact lens care can be made. We are committed to staying current with improvements in contact lens materials, care systems, and fitting techniques.
