Children’s Eyewear
Welcome to Primary Eye Care Associate’s Children’s Optical! Our selection of children’s eyeglass frames includes a variety of popular brands such as Oakley, Ray-Ban, Sferoflex, and NanoVista indestructible and flexible glasses for kids.
We offer a wide range of eyeglasses specifically designed for children. From fun and colorful frames to more durable and flexible options, we have frames that cater to every child’s style and needs. Our frame stylists will help your child find the perfect glasses that fit comfortably and provide optimal vision correction.
When it comes to children’s eyeglasses, there are several key features to ensure that they provide the best vision and fit for your child.
Lenses
One important feature to consider is the thickness of the lenses. Thicker lenses can be heavy and uncomfortable for children, potentially affecting their willingness to wear their glasses. That’s why we recommend lighter and more comfortable materials such as polycarbonate or Trivex lenses for children’s eyeglasses.
Proper bridge fit
Proper bridge fit is another important factor in children’s eyeglasses. The bridge should rest securely on your child’s nose without slipping or causing discomfort. Look for glasses with adjustable nose pads or flexible bridges to ensure a good fit. Our frame stylists can work with your child to ensure their glasses have the proper bridge fit.
Temple style
Temple style plays a significant role in children’s eyeglasses, ensuring a comfortable and secure fit. Temples that are too long or too short can cause the glasses to slip off or be uncomfortable to wear. Look for glasses with temples that are the appropriate length for your child’s head size and shape. Wraparound temple styles are particularly beneficial for keeping eyeglasses in place, especially for younger children.
Spring hinges
Spring hinges are another useful feature to look for in children’s eyeglasses. These hinges allow the temples to flex, making the glasses more comfortable to wear and less likely to break.
Children’s sunglasses
In addition to eyeglasses, we also offer a selection of high-quality children’s sunglasses. Children, just like adults, need to wear sunglasses to protect their eyes from the damaging effects of UV radiation. Our children’s sunglasses are specifically designed with their eye health in mind. They provide excellent UV protection, shielding your child’s eyes from the sun’s harmful rays.
