When you need new glasses, you have a lot of choices. It might seem easy to just click and buy a pair online, but that convenience can come at a cost to your comfort and vision. At Collingwood Optometry & Cwood Eyecare, our team believes choosing your eyewear is a healthcare decision, not just a purchase.
Getting your eyeglasses from your optometrist offers benefits that go beyond a simple transaction; it’s about receiving personalized care at a trusted clinic that helps you see clearly and comfortably for years to come.
Guidance for Your Unique Eyes
Your vision is complex, and an eye doctor has the training to understand your specific needs. The entire team works with you to find solutions that fit your eyes and your life, providing advice you can’t usually get from a website.
A Prescription Tailored to You
The numbers on your prescription are just the beginning. Unlike a simple sight test, a comprehensive eye exam considers how your eyes work together as a team. This allows the eye care staff to recommend specific lens options that can provide you with clear and comfortable vision throughout your day.
Advice for Your Lifestyle
Whether you spend your days in front of a computer, working outdoors, or a mix of both, your optometrist can suggest frames, lenses, and coatings suited for your daily activities, such as options to help reduce digital eye strain, turning your eyewear into a true asset.
An Accurate Fit for Clear Vision and Comfort
A pair of glasses that doesn’t fit correctly can cause headaches, eye strain, or constantly slip down your nose. When you purchase glasses from your optometrist, you get a custom fit from a trained professional.
The Importance of Precise Measurements
There is more to a good fit than just your prescription. The team takes key measurements to help make your lenses align correctly with your eyes, which is important for clear vision. These measurements can include:
- Pupillary distance (PD)
- Optical centre (OC) height
- Lens tilt and wrap angle
Custom Frame Adjustments
Once you choose your frames, the team can carefully adjust them to fit the unique shape of your face. This small step makes a big difference in how your glasses feel and can help you adjust to your new glasses more quickly.
A Focus on Quality Frames and Lenses
Eyeglasses are an investment in your vision. Our clinic offers durable, well-made products from reputable manufacturers, so you know that your eyewear is built to last.
Durable Materials You Can Trust
You can explore a selection of frames and lenses made from strong, lasting materials that are designed to handle daily wear. This means you may experience fewer breaks and need fewer repairs down the road.
Lens Options for Your Needs
From thinner, lighter lenses for strong prescriptions to coatings that reduce glare and resist scratches, you have access to a wide range of lens technologies. The team can help you select options based on their quality and performance.
Ongoing Care and Support After Your Purchase
Your relationship with your optometry team doesn’t end when you walk out the door with your new glasses. You get the benefit of follow-up care, helping you enjoy your eyewear long after your purchase.
Help with Adjustments and Repairs
If your glasses ever feel loose or get bent out of shape, you can return for a quick adjustment. This ongoing support helps keep your glasses fitting comfortably and performing as they should.
A Team That Knows Your History
When you get your glasses where you have your eye exams, the team is already familiar with your vision history. This continuity of care makes it easier to address concerns and track changes over time with regular adult eye exams.
The Value of a Local Connection
