Fortunately, Benjamin Optical offers comprehensive eye exams to assess the sharpness of your vision and identify the correct prescription for corrective lenses.
You can get new eyeglasses as frequently as you like, although you should get new eyeglasses if your prescription changes. Your prescription for eyeglass lenses is valid for a year, so you should have an exam annually to ensure your prescription is correct.
However, you can choose to get new eyeglasses at any time if you want to update your look or have different pairs of glasses.
Benjamin Optical offers a wide range of lenses for eyeglasses. In addition to prescription lenses for myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism, they also offer multifocal lenses if you need different prescriptions to see far away and close up.
You can also choose high-index lenses to reduce the thickness and weight of your lenses if you have a strong prescription.
You can also opt for anti-glare coating and photochromic lenses to protect your eyes from ultraviolet (UV) light. Benjamin Optical also offers a wide selection of sunglasses.
Benjamin Optical offers a wide range of designer frames as well as stylish options for all budgets. Designer options include:
When you’re considering frames, think about the shape of your face, your coloring, and the strength of your prescription. For example, if you have a strong prescription, your lenses will be thick, but the right type of frames can disguise the thickness.
The team at Benjamin Optical can help you choose flattering frames and answer any questions you have about different lens types and coating options.
