Optique

Although some people only experience minor changes in their vision from year to year, there are ways to tell if you need a new prescription even when you aren’t experiencing vision issues. Chronic headaches are perhaps the single best sign that it’s time to visit the optician.

Eyeglass lenses are made of either glass, plastic, or polycarbonate. Glass lenses have been around the longest, and are much heavier than plastic or polycarbonate lenses.

What are bifocals? They are corrective lenses that are made to address two different prescriptions at the same time. It is not uncommon for one person to have two different refractive errors, such as astigmatism and nearsightedness. Bifocals contain prescription to adjust to both vision problems.
