Sunglasses in Wexford

Q: 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.

Q: 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.

Q: 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.

Q: 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.

I truly can’t say enough good things about this office and the amazing people who work here. Since m... Show Moreoving back to Pittsburgh, I needed to find a new eye doctor, and with my difficult prescription, getting my glasses right hasn’t always been easy. The optometrist got it perfect the first time and has always been so kind, patient, thorough, and understanding. She takes the time to actually get to know me and my family, which makes every visit feel personal. The entire staff is just as incredible. While I could name specific people who have made such a difference over the years, I honestly don’t even need to — because every single person in this office deserves recognition. From the moment I walk in, I am greeted, acknowledged, helped, and taken care of from every angle. Every staff member pays attention, walks me through the process, and makes me feel like I genuinely matter. Anyone who knows me knows picking glasses is never a quick decision — I can have dozens of frames laid out trying to find “the one.” They are always patient, honest, and helpful, narrowing everything down to the perfect pairs that fit my face, my style, and my everyday life. They work with me to capitalize on my insurance benefits while also using the BOGO 1/2% each year! Over the years, I've built a nice collection with variety to compliment my wardrobe / differential facets of my lifestyle. Over the years, they’ve been there for so many little moments — the tears when my puppy chewed my glasses, the frustration of trying to find frames when I was pregnant and my face felt different, and the happy moments of finding a pair that finally felt like me. They’ve seen me through different seasons of life and have always shown kindness, patience, and compassion. There is honestly no better feeling than getting that call that my glasses are ready, coming in, putting them on, and loving my frames while my lenses are perfect the first time. They always make sure everything feels right and that I walk out confident and taken care of. Even if I moved farther away, I would still come back because finding a team that cares this much is rare. They know me, they know what works for me, and they go above and beyond every single time. I truly cannot thank them enough. They are simply amazing and deserve all the recognition for the incredible work they do.
