Understanding Glasses & High-End Glasses
Glasses serve as essential medical devices that correct refractive errors including myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism, while high-end glasses elevate this necessity into a fashion statement. These premium eyewear options combine superior craftsmanship, luxury materials, and cutting-edge lens technology to deliver exceptional visual clarity and style. High-end glasses often feature titanium frames, premium acetate materials, and advanced lens coatings that provide enhanced durability and visual performance.
The distinction between standard and high-end glasses extends beyond aesthetics to include superior construction quality, innovative design elements, and exclusive brand heritage. Premium eyewear manufacturers invest significantly in research and development, creating frames that offer better fit, comfort, and longevity while incorporating the latest advances in lens technology and protective coatings.

FAQs
How to clean eyeglasses?
Clean your eyeglasses daily using lukewarm water and a small drop of dish soap, gently rubbing both sides of the lenses with your fingers. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a clean, lint-free cloth, avoiding paper towels or clothing that might scratch the lenses. For quick cleaning throughout the day, use a microfiber cloth and lens cleaning solution specifically designed for eyewear.
How to read eyeglass prescriptions?
Your eyeglass prescription contains several abbreviations including OD (right eye) and OS (left eye), followed by numbers indicating sphere, cylinder, and axis measurements. The sphere number shows the lens power needed for nearsightedness (negative numbers) or farsightedness (positive numbers). Additional notations like ADD indicate additional magnification needed for reading, while PD represents the distance between your pupils for proper lens positioning.
What are progressive eyeglasses?
Progressive eyeglasses feature lenses with multiple prescription zones that gradually transition from distance vision at the top to near vision at the bottom. These lenses eliminate the visible line found in traditional bifocals while providing clear vision at all distances including intermediate ranges. Progressive lenses require a brief adjustment period as you learn to move your eyes and head to access different viewing zones.
Are contact lens and eyeglass prescriptions the same?
Contact lens and eyeglass prescriptions differ because contacts sit directly on your eye while glasses sit about 12 millimeters away from your eyes. This distance affects the lens power needed, typically requiring slightly different measurements for optimal vision correction. Contact lens prescriptions also include base curve and diameter measurements specific to the shape and size of your eyes.
What does PD mean for eyeglasses?
PD stands for pupillary distance, which measures the space between the centers of your pupils in millimeters. This measurement ensures your lenses are properly centered over your eyes for optimal visual clarity and comfort. An accurate PD measurement prevents eye strain, headaches, and visual distortion that can occur when lenses are not properly aligned with your natural line of sight.
What are the signs I need new eye glasses?
Refractive errors like myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism usually develop slowly, and you might not notice a change in your vision right away.
However, you might notice that you get frequent headaches or that you have to squint to see your computer screen or phone clearly. As you age, you might find that you need to hold your phone or book at arm’s length to see the text.
If your child needs eye glasses, they might start to sit closer to the television. They might also hold books close to their face, close one eye, or tilt their head to read. Your child’s academic performance could even start to decline if they’re struggling to see the board or their work.
How often do I need new eye glasses?
A prescription for corrective lenses is valid for a year, and the team recommends having an eye exam every year to make sure it’s still the best prescription to correct your vision. However, you can get new glasses as frequently as you like.
If you wear glasses every day, you might want to have a few pairs on hand to go with different looks. You might also want to have a spare pair of eye glasses in case you break or lose a pair.
What do I need to consider when choosing new eye glasses?
When you select a new pair of eye glasses, you need to think about your frames, lenses, and lens coatings.
Frames
When you are considering frames, you need to choose frames that flatter your facial shape, your style, and make sure they work with your prescription.
For example, if you have multifocal lenses, your lenses need to be tall enough to accommodate the different prescriptions. Also, if you have a strong prescription, your lenses are thicker, and you might want to choose a frame that surrounds them.
Vision Corner carries a variety of attractive frames including:
- Gucci
- Maui Jim
- Kirk and Kirk
- Flexon
- Cartier
- Roberto Cavalli
- Cutler and Gross
- Kate Spade
- Tom Ford
- Ferragamo
- Oliver Peoples
- Mont Blanc
- John Varvatos
The friendly and experienced office staff can help you choose flattering frames that suit your prescription.
Lenses
Lenses are made from a wide range of materials. Vision Corner offers bifocal and multifocal lenses to accommodate patients who need multiple prescriptions to see far away and close up. Vision Corner also offers computer lenses to help improve vision comfort.
Lens coating
Vision Corner offers several lens coatings to protect your glasses from scratches and your eyes from blue light and glare. Our optician will talk to you about your lifestyle and what coatings are best for you.
