OPTICAL BOUTIQUE

​​​​​​​The frames that inhabit our optical displays represent a broad range of manufacturers, shapes, sizes, colors, and fashion. Our frames are durable, high quality, and fashion-forward. We do not use any frames that are made cheaply because, too easily, they become discolored, the hinges loosen, and they lose their adjustment. In the long run, cheap frames become an expensive source of frustration.

Our opticians know about style and fashion, but they also know about lenses and all the various lens options. Some lens materials are lighter in weight and thinner than others. Some lenses can be treated to reduce glare. Some filter out harmful ultraviolet rays. All of our lenses are scratch-resistant (at no extra charge). There are various designs for the popular progressive (no-line) lenses: some offer a wider intermediate area (for computer use) and some offer a wider reading area. We have custom-designed lenses for artists, shooters, stockroom workers, wood-carvers, and even a harpist. In today’s complex world it has become difficult for one pair of glasses to function well for all the various things we do. It has, therefore, become common for our patients to need at least one specialized pair of glasses in addition to their general purpose glasses.
