Custom Prescription Eyeglasses: What You Need to Know

In today’s world, eyeglasses are more than just a tool for vision correction—they’re a fashion statement and a reflection of your personality. At La Mesa Family Optical, your local optician in La Mesa, CA, we specialize in providing custom prescription eyeglasses tailored to your unique needs and style. Here’s what you need to know about custom prescription eyeglasses and how they can enhance both your vision and your look.

The Benefits of Custom Prescription Glasses

Precise Vision Correction

Custom prescription eyeglasses are made to match your exact vision needs, ensuring optimal clarity and comfort. Whether you are nearsighted, farsighted, or have astigmatism, custom lenses provide precise correction that off-the-shelf eyeglasses cannot match.

Personalized Fit

Ill-fitting eyeglasses can be uncomfortable and cause headaches or slipping. Custom eyeglasses are designed to fit the contours of your face perfectly, providing a secure and comfortable fit that stays in place throughout your day.

Style and Selection

With custom eyeglasses, you have access to a wide variety of frames and lens options, allowing you to choose the perfect pair that matches your personal style and preferences. From classic designs to trendy looks, the possibilities are endless.

Enhanced Lens Options

Custom lenses can be tailored with features that suit your lifestyle, such as anti-reflective coatings, blue light filters, photochromic (transition) lenses, and polarized lenses. These enhancements can improve comfort and protect your eyes in various environments.

The Process of Getting Custom Prescription Eyeglasses

Frame Selection

Once your prescription is ready, it’s time to choose your frames. Our friendly staff will help you browse our extensive collection of frames, offering guidance on what styles and shapes complement your face and suit your lifestyle. Whether you prefer a bold, modern look or a subtle, classic style, we have something for everyone.

Lens Customization

After selecting your frames, we’ll help you customize your lenses. This includes choosing the right material (such as polycarbonate for durability or high-index for thinner lenses), adding any desired coatings (like anti-glare or UV protection), and selecting any special features (like blue light blocking or transition lenses), bringing your prescription and we’ll take care of fitting it to your new prescription eyeglasses. Our expert opticians will work with you to ensure a seamless process, ensuring your new eye not only look great but also provide crisp, clear vision.

Fitting and Adjustment

Once your custom eyeglasses are ready, we’ll ensure they fit perfectly. Proper adjustment is crucial for comfort and optimal vision. Our opticians will make any necessary tweaks to ensure your eyeglasses sit correctly on your face without pinching or slipping.

Follow-Up Care

At La Mesa Family Optical, we’re committed to your satisfaction. We offer follow-up care to address any concerns you might have and make any necessary adjustments. Your comfort and vision clarity are our top priorities.

Caring for Your Custom Prescription eyeglasses

To ensure your custom eyeglasses last and continue to provide optimal vision, follow these care tips:

Clean Regularly

Use a microfiber cloth and lens cleaner to gently clean your lenses. Avoid using paper towels or tissues, as they can scratch the lenses.

Store Properly

When not in use, store your eyeglasses in a protective case to prevent damage. Avoid placing them lens-side down on surfaces.

Handle with Care

Use both hands to put on and take off your eyeglasses to avoid bending the frames.

Regular Check-Ups

Schedule regular visits to La Mesa Family Optical for adjustments and to check the condition of your eyeglasses.
