Expert Eyeglasses Tips
New Glasses
You need to buy a new pair of eye glasses in the store or
eye glasses online:
* Every time your prescription changes
* You're tired of your old eyeglasses
* Your glasses go out of style and you need to buy new
eyeglasses online
* Your face shape changes, e.g. after surgery or changes
in weight.
* Your hair color changes
* Your eye doctor makes recommendations—you should
generally see your eye doctor once a year or once every
two years.
Don't Cut Corners on Glasses
Buying eyeglasses online on the basis of a sale or JPEG is
as foolish as picking a pair of eyeglasses at random from
the drugstore. Only buy eye glasses online or in the drug
store if you know your diopter strength. One size does not
fit all when it comes to eye glasses. You definitely don't
want to risk getting the wrong pair. Invest in your eyes,
see your eye doctor, and you can be assured that your
glasses will fit you to an “I” (eye).
Eyeglasses Bought To Last
The magnification of your eyeglasses is great. The frames
don't make your ears or nose ache. The hinges are screwed
on tight. Even better, you bought your eye glasses online
at a great price from a superb retailer with a killer
return/refund policy. You haven't been this much in love
since the day you met your spouse.
Take the same loving care with your glasses that you do
with your spouse. Some tips:
* Just like infatuation with the current Young Hollywood
looks, your love for a trendy frame can grow old fast.
Pick a classic but fun frame, especially if you're buying
just one pair of glasses. Unlike your spouse, your
eyeglasses won't mind if you bring another pair home.
* Like shopping for love online, buyer beware when buying
eyeglasses online.
* Love means being flexible, so choose spring hinges,
which are both durable and comfortable.
* Look for scratch-resistant coating—after all, your
current partner has a thick skin after listening to you
snore all these years, right?
Finding Sunglasses Online?
If you saw a fab designer pair of glasses in your local
snooty-tooty shop, you may be searching for your perfect
eye glasses online. Be sure to note the model number
before you go looking for those Calvin Klein eyeglasses
online.
Many online sellers of eye glasses allow you to search by
model number, or you can just input the model number and
click “Search.”
Just make sure you try the eyeglasses in the store to make
sure they fit, and that you can see with perfect clarity.
Proper Eyeglass Cleaning
You bought ultra-hip eyeglasses online three months ago
and they already look worn out. Should you demand a refund
from the eye glasses online merchant? Think twice before
pushing the “Send” button on a complaint form. You might
not have been cleaning your eye glasses properly. Better
go to that eyeglasses online oasis and purchase a
microfiber cloth and bottle of eyeglass cleaner.
If you clean your glasses improperly, you can damage the
anti-reflective coating that keeps away annoying
reflections. If your eyeglasses look smeary or foggy,
clean them carefully with cloth and cleaner spray. You may
have to buy new lenses if that doesn't work, or take the
glasses to your eye doctor.
Eyeglasses Online?
You can't buy eye glasses online just by eyeballing them.
A few tips:
* Make sure you know the distance between your pupils, or
PD, which you can find out from your optometrist.
* Know your eye, bridge and temple length—those are the
three numbers found on the inside of all eyeglass frames.
* Decide which lens is best for your glasses:
polycarbonate, high-index, or regular plastic lenses.
* Decide which hinges are best for your eye glasses:
regular screw hinges or spring hinges.
* Select eyeglasses in a size close to your current
glasses, and get an identical magnification.
* Don't buy bifocal eyeglasses online unless you know the
specs of your specs.
* Make sure the return policy is right. Eyesave.com has a
30-day money-back guarantee and offers the convenience of
a pre-printed UPS label you can affix to your rejected
specs.
