Two pairs and a free, quality eye exam for just $79.95
Choosing eyeglass frames for your children is a very important decision.
For young children, contact lenses may not be an option when vision correction is needed. Contact lenses can generally be considered once the child hits the teen years but until then, eyeglasses are the best option.
Luckily, eyeglasses have changed dramatically over the years. Instead of only offering function, they now also offer a great deal of style and character.
Eyeglass Choices
Your child will have many choices to choose from when picking her eyeglasses. There are many types of kids glasses styles as well as colors and designers.
While younger kids may identify most with brightly colored frames and branded names such as StrideRite and Mary-Kate and Ashley; older kids may want the same designer styles as their parents. The great news is, they can!
From a parent's perspective, we understand that you want to make sure that your kid's eyeglasses are both functional and durable.
At America's Best we offer a wide range of kid’s prescription glasses that will satisfy your child's need to have a cool pair of eyeglasses and will be equally friendly to your pocketbook.
Choosing Kid's Eyeglasses
When you are choosing kid's eyeglasses, there are a few factors to keep in mind to ensure the frames will last:
1. Look for Spring Hinges
These hinges make the eyeglasses more durable and less likely to break if the eyeglass arms are opened too far.
2. Ask for Polycarbonate Lenses
These lenses are less likely to crack or break and are safer for your child to wear. For children under 13, polycarbonate lenses are included at no extra charge at America's Best.
3. Inspect for Durability
For your little one who you know will be tough on glasses, look for stronger frames made of lightweight steel or titanium.
4. Inquire about Scratch Resistant Coatings
This is a special coating that can be added to polycarbonate lenses to decrease scratches.
