Frames
Eyeglass frames can truly reflect who you are as an individual. Is your style funky? Preppy? Sporty? Trendy? Conservative?
Whatever your personal style, we offer a large variety of designer eyeglass frames as well as frames for more budget-conscious individuals. Our experienced opticians can make suggestions on frame styles and colors that will complement your face shape, skin tone and lifestyle. They will also help you decide which frames will fit best on your face and provide the smallest possible pressure on your nose and ears within the lens prescription you have.

Tips for Contact Lens Care
To avoid eye infection, proper contact lens hygiene is very important. We recommend following these steps when caring for your lenses:
- Wash your hands before putting in your contacts
- Use high quality lens cleaning solutions to clean your contacts after each use; do not reuse cleaning solution as it may contain bacteria
- Do not use your own saliva, tap water or chlorinated water to clean your lenses; these unsterile water sources may contain bacteria
- Wash your lens case regularly with cleaning solution and allow it to dry before closing it
- Only sleep in extended wear contacts
- Replace your lens case every three months to avoid bacteria build-up
- Don’t wear contacts if your eyes are irritated or if the contact appears damaged; this can lead to infection or a scratched cornea
