Tell us your prescription needs, and we’ll guide you to the right frame and lens choice.
Quick story from the bench: last week, a client walked in after a long Zoom day, temples sore, frames sliding. We swapped him into a titanium fit with nose‑pad tweaks and a thinner lens build. He blinked, laughed, and said, “This feels… like nothing.” That’s the moment we chase.
New Eyeglasses: Choosing Frames That Fit Your Face, Lifestyle, and Prescription
Start with measurements to find a frame that balances comfort and style.
Find your size
Look inside the left temple for three numbers. Example: 52 17 145 means Lens Width 52 mm, Bridge Distance 17 mm, Temple Length 145 mm. These millimeter marks create a repeatable fit that helps us match your current pair or pick a better frame.
Special fits and materials
Feature

Why It Helps
Metal
Lightweight daily wear
Polished look, thin temples
Acetate
Bold color & structure
Sturdy fit, expressive style
Double brow bar
Statement looks
Balanced symmetry, added character
Large fit: wider lens widths and longer temples for balance. Small fit: tighter lens and bridge measurements to prevent slipping. Low bridge: larger or adjustable nose pads to lift the vision line and reduce cheek contact. High prescription: choose smaller lens widths and supportive shapes to minimize edge thickness.
Men’s picks
We favor durable designs with reinforced hinges and classic colors for men who need everyday comfort under a cap or headset. If you want bold and refined in equal measure, Dita eyeglasses deliver sharp lines without the weight. For distinctive color and quiet luxury, Barton Perreira sunglasses bring that “effortless cool” vibe for weekends.
Lenses That Work Hard: Prescription Options, Enhancements, and Vision Benefits
We make lens choices practical and easy. The right lenses keep your vision crisp and your day comfortable.
Materials and basics
Single‑vision lenses fit distance or reading needs with a single power. Progressives give seamless near‑to‑far correction without visible lines. Most modern lenses are high‑impact and scratch‑resistant by default for daily wear and active use.
Coatings and enhancements
Blue light filtering reduces harsh screen wavelengths and eases eye fatigue during long sessions. Photochromic lenses darken outdoors for comfort without swapping frames. Anti‑reflective (AR) coatings cut glare for night driving, presentations, and video calls.
PD made simple
If your doctor gave two PD numbers (one per eye), add them together and divide by two. Enter that single pupillary distance value to align the prescription correctly with the frame.

Reduce eye strain, adapt to light, cut glare
We pair lens thickness and designs to fit each frame so edges stay slim and balanced. For higher prescriptions we recommend smaller lens widths and performance coatings to keep vision sharp across the lens. Call (212) 300‑4976 for lens recommendations tailored to your daily routine and screen time. We’ll help men and women choose one pair that does it all.
Price, Insurance, and Savings: How to Maximize Your Eyeglasses Budget
Start by setting a price goal so we can map your insurance benefits, promotions, and lens choices to your needs.
We explain how in‑network and out‑of‑network plans work. If your plan is in‑network, we apply your vision allowance at checkout to lower your final price. If it’s out‑of‑network, you can still buy here and submit a claim form for post‑purchase reimbursement.
Quick tips to save
● Know your benefits: call your provider or bring your card so we can check eligibility.
● Watch promotions: common offers include 40% off prescription glasses or 20% off frame‑only items.
● Bundle smartly: frame‑and‑lens packages often beat à la carte pricing.
● Compare lenses: pick coatings you’ll use daily to avoid extra price for rare features.
● Men: choose a versatile frame and add only the needed coatings to save.
“Start with a clear price plan and let us align coverage, promotions, and lens options so your final cost fits your budget.”

FAQ
What designer and premium brands do you carry for frames?
We stock a curated range of leading brands like Ray‑Ban, Prada, Tom Ford, Oakley, and Gucci—plus independent houses known for engineering and finish. If you’re after ultra‑light engineering, ask about Lindberg frames on your next visit.
How do I find frames that suit my face and prescription?
Start with frame measurements (for example, 52‑17‑145) and your face shape. Try styles in person or use our virtual try‑on. Our team checks fit, bridge comfort, and temple length to ensure the frame works with your prescription and daily activities.
What do the numbers 52‑17‑145 mean?
Those numbers stand for lens width (52 mm), bridge width (17 mm), and temple length (145 mm). They help you choose frames that fit your face size and keep lenses centered over your pupils for clear vision.
Do you offer frames for large or small fits and low‑bridge noses?
Yes. We carry specially shaped frames and adjustable nose pads for low‑bridge and high‑bridge fits. We also stock larger and smaller sizes so you get both comfort and proper lens alignment.
What frame materials and shapes are available?
You’ll find metal, titanium, acetate, and mixed‑material frames. Popular shapes include square, rectangle, round, and double brow bar styles. Each material affects weight, durability, and appearance—our specialists guide your choice. For bolder sculpture and playful color, try our Face a Face sunglasses selection.
Which frames do you recommend for men who need durable, timeless eyewear?
For men, we often suggest titanium or high‑quality acetate in classic shapes like rectangular or square. Brands such as Ray‑Ban and Oakley offer durable, everyday options that balance style and longevity—looking for statement construction? Ask to see Dita's eyeglasses in the store.
What lens types do you offer for prescriptions?
We provide single‑vision, bifocal, and progressive lenses. Options include high‑index lenses for strong prescriptions and polycarbonate or Trivex for impact resistance and lightweight wear.
What coatings and enhancements improve comfort and vision?
Common enhancements include anti‑reflective coating for night driving, scratch‑resistant hard coats, blue light filtering for digital work, and photochromic lenses that darken outdoors. We recommend options based on your routine.
How do I enter my pupillary distance (PD) if my prescription shows two numbers?
If your PD lists two numbers, they usually represent each eye (for example 31 / 32). Enter both values in the left and right PD fields so lenses are centered correctly over each pupil for accurate vision.
How does vision insurance work with your store?
We accept many in‑network plans and can process claims at checkout. If your plan is out‑of‑network, you can pay up front and submit a claim for reimbursement. Our staff helps with claim paperwork to simplify the process.
Can I get reimbursed if I buy out‑of‑network?
Yes. Keep your itemized receipt and claim form. Submit these to your insurer for partial or full reimbursement, depending on your plan’s out‑of‑network benefits.
How can I save when buying frames and prescription lenses?
Look for seasonal promotions, bundle deals (frame + lenses), or frame‑only discounts when you already have lenses. We also run manufacturer offers and accept flexible spending accounts where applicable.
What services do you offer at your New York location?
At 546 6th Ave, New York, NY 10011 we provide free fittings, adjustments, and repairs. You can try frames in‑store, get measurements taken, and receive personalized styling advice from our team.
Can I order online and pick up in store?
Yes. We offer online ordering with in‑store pickup. We also provide free shipping on many orders and a 90‑day return window to ensure you’re happy with your purchase.
Do you offer protection plans for glasses?
We offer an optional one‑year protection plan that covers accidental damage and certain repairs. It’s a good choice for active lifestyles or higher‑value frames and lenses. If you’re comparing ultra‑light options in NYC, try our Lindberg glasses NYC setups during a fitting.
Is virtual try‑on available before I buy?
Yes. Our virtual try‑on tool lets you test frames and pair lenses from home. It’s a useful first step, and we recommend an in‑store fitting for final adjustments and precise measurements.
