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.

This is the practice I always go to for the best exam and eyewear! Thank you Dr Zellers, Dr Wang & ... Dr Nguyen for all you do and for the techs in thoroughly testing me before seeing the doctor. You make it a simple process. The opticians and especially Deva are always so friendly and helpful. They advise me on what is best and maximize my insurance benefits. Thanks to the entire team at Optique!

Just saw Dr. Emily Wang today for an appointment. She is hands down one of the nicest and down-to-ea... rth eye doctors I have ever seen. She didn't make me feel bad that my astigmatism is a mess and that I am getting older. I highly recommend Dr. Wang!

Staff are kind and helpful. The office has changed a lot since Dr. Orm’s retirement. He was my o... ptometrist more than 20 years. I have Dr. Zeller as my new optometrist now, he is patient and personable. I am glad to stay even though it is a long drive for me.

Lovely experience. I booked the day before for an eye exam and contact prescription renewal. My appo... intment started on time. Dr Zellars was friendly, knowledgable, and efficient, and the vibes in the office were excellent. Didn’t have to spend all day there. My bill was the same as what was quoted on the phone the day before. I will definitely return for my yearly exam.

Always a nice experience and it's always a quick process not needing to take too much time out of th... e day for the appt.

When I visited Optique for an eye exam, I was very impressed. Unlike previous visits to other eye s... pecialists, it was unexpectedly professional yet very quick. I was in and out in less than an hour. Dr. Zellars took his time with me yet he didn't waste time. The staff were very pleasant. No one pushed me to purchase glasses either. A nice bonus was my time in the waiting room was less than 10 minutes. The last eye doctor I visited had me waiting an hour and a half!

I visited for the first time December 7th and Dr. O was my doctor. Very informative and caring and ... gave me details that I was not aware of. Very caring and friendly and I will go back after this visit and get sunglasses. Great location.
