Sunglasses FAQs

What are the benefits of photochromic sunglasses?

Photochromic lenses (with or without prescription) adjust to brightness. They darken as you step outside on a sunny day and get lighter when you go indoors. This means that you can wear the same glasses everywhere without having to switch from regular glasses to sunglasses.

Are sunglass lens coatings worth it?

While sunglasses provide plenty of protection for your eyes, lens coatings add even more benefits. You can choose anti-reflective coatings to cut down on glare and make driving safer. Tinted sunglasses can help you see colors and detail more distinctly. Scratch-resistant coatings help prevent damage so you can enjoy your shades for longer.

Is it OK to wear sunglasses with contacts?

Unless your contact lenses provide 100% UV protection — most don’t — always remember to don your sunglasses before heading outdoors. Sunglasses with 100% UV protection screen out harmful rays and winds that tend to dry out your eyes more quickly. This is good news for contact lens wearers who run the risk of developing dry eye symptoms.

How to tell if sunglasses have UV protection?

To make sure that your sunglasses block 100% of UVA and UVB rays, make sure to purchase your shades from a licensed optometrist.

How Do I Choose the Right Sunglasses?

To select your perfect sunglasses, consider the following:

  • Frames

    You want your sunglasses to last, so choose durable, high-quality frames. Whether you choose plastic, acetate, aluminum, stainless steel or even wooden frames, make sure that the frames fit well, look good, and are comfortable to wear.

  • Lenses

    Lenses correct your vision, protect your eyes and enhance your style. Always choose lenses that screen out 100% of UV rays. You can also choose special features like anti-glare, polarized shades or tints. To prevent damage, select durable lenses.

  • Shape

    Sunglass shapes not only express your unique style; they provide a protective barrier against the elements. Wrap-around sunglasses shield your eyes from wind and flying debris. The right frames also complement your face and help you bring your best features forward.

  • Prescription

    Once you’ve undergone an eye exam, you can purchase sunglasses with the same prescription as your regular glasses. Wearing prescription sunglasses allows you to enjoy the outdoors while protecting your eyes from harmful UV rays.

Super friendly and helpful staff!! Highly recommend.
- Sep. 16, 2024
Great office, wonderful people. I started coming here about 12 years ago- their customer service and... level of care has always been top notch. Only eye Dr I've been to that allowed me to take frames home to try out and see how I (and my husband) liked them prior to committing to purchase (which is important because they are literally the first thing people will see when they look at you!) I was so disappointed when my vision insurance changed and I had to go elsewhere for a few years. Now that I have had lasik though I dropped my vision insurance (since I shouldn't need glasses/contacts) just so I can go here for my yearly exam. 100% recommend.
- Sep. 11, 2024
Awesome service and great "Bedside Manner." Been going there for 15 years.
- Sep. 03, 2024
Dr Flynn and staff are top notch. When we walk in for appointments, we are treated like family pract... ically. Each exam on the 3 of us in the family is well explained and thorough. It’s an appointment I never dread, rather look forward to.

Fast and friendly.
