Why Choose Optic Edge for Your Glasses
Choosing the right pair of glasses is about more than picking a frame—it’s about achieving optimal vision, comfort, and style. At Optic Edge, we believe glasses should be tailored to fit your face, lifestyle, and wardrobe needs. Here’s how we stand apart.
Expert Optical Guidance and Frame Advice
The world of eyewear options can be overwhelming: frame shapes, materials, lens types, coatings, and fashion trends all impact your final choice. Our optometrists and dispensing staff are trained to assess your face shape, prescription, daily activities, and personal aesthetics—helping you make informed decisions that balance vision performance, comfort, and style.
Quality Lenses That Enhance Visual Clarity
Your lenses play a huge role in how you experience your glasses throughout the day. Whether you need single-vision lenses for reading or driving, varifocal lenses for seamless viewing at all distances, or specialized coatings like anti-reflective or blue light protection, we help you understand the benefits and select the perfect option. Our lab uses precision edging and premium coatings to ensure sharp vision, rugged durability, and wrinkle-free clarity.
Comfortable and Style-Driven Frame Selection
From lightweight titanium frames to bold plastic designs and custom rimless styles, our frames are sourced for their comfort, durability, and design integrity. Each frame option focuses on stress-free all-day wear, paired hinges for smooth alignment, and adjustments for secure fit—making our glasses as comfortable as they are stylish.
Advanced Fitting and Personalized Adjustments
Proper fit is essential to prevent issues like pressure headaches and uneven wear. Our opticians conduct precise measurements and adjustments, ensuring temples, nose pads, and frames are tailored to your facial structure. Whether you’re picking glasses for work, study, or sport, we ensure they don’t slip, pinch, or shift out of alignment during routine use.
Ongoing Care and Full-Service Support
Your relationship with Optic Edge doesn’t end when you leave the store. We offer free frame adjustments, cleaning, parts replacement, and advice—plus optional insurance or extended warranty plans. Every component and coating is backed by quality assurance, and we’ll help you keep your glasses working like new for years.
Finding the Right Glasses for Your Lifestyle
Your daily routine matters when choosing eyewear. Optic Edge provides customized solutions that balance vision needs with personal style, occupational demands, and leisure activities.
Everyday Eyewear for Work and Lifestyle
Ideal for office workers, students, and frequent commuters, our everyday glasses combine comfort, professional design, and lens clarity. Blue light filtering, anti-reflective coatings, and durable frames support screen-heavy lifestyles without sacrificing appearance or comfort.
Sports and Safety Glasses for Active Lifestyles
For runners, hikers, bikers, and manual laborers, we recommend durable polycarbonate or Trivex lenses with wraparound frames. Protective glasses offer impact resistance and UV protection, making them suitable for action, outdoor sports, and daily wear with enhanced safety.
Designer Fashion Frames for Personal Expression
Make a statement with exclusive eyewear from global and boutique brands like Ray-Ban, Lindberg, Maui Jim, Vogue Eyewear, and more. Our selection caters to diverse aesthetics—timeless styles, bold shapes, modern chic—cultivated for people who value both trends and timeless wearability.
Kids’ Glasses Built for Everyday Play
Young adventurers need glasses that stand up to active routines. Our child-sized frames feature flexible, lightweight models and impact-resistant lenses. Plus, our opticians gently explain wearing care to support independence and confidence in young patients.
Lens Options to Enhance Your Vision
Selecting the right lenses is just as critical as choosing the frame. Optic Edge provides a range of glasses lens options tailored to your visual needs and lifestyle habits.
Prescription Lenses for Clearer Vision
Whether you require single-vision lenses for distance or reading, bifocals for specific tasks, or varifocals (progressives) for seamless viewing across all distances, we create precise lens solutions that support all-day visual clarity.
Blue-Light and Digital Fatigue Solutions
Frequent screen use can disrupt sleep cycles and lead to digital eye strain. Our blue-light-filtering lenses are designed to manage harmful wavelengths and reduce glare—promoting better focus, fewer headaches, and healthier screen habits.
Anti-Reflective, Scratch-Resistant, and UV Coatings
To improve visual comfort and durability, we combine a suite of coatings: anti-glare reflection reduction, hydrophobic/oleophobic smudge resistance, and full-spectrum UV blocking. Together, these features enhance lens clarity, resilience, and daily performance.
Photochromic and Polarized Lenses
For those who move between indoor and outdoor environments, transition lenses that darken outdoors and clear indoors offer seamless vision adjustments. Polarized lenses reduce harsh reflections on water, snow, and pavement—perfect for drivers, anglers, and outdoor lovers.
High-Index and Ultra-Thin Lens Profiles
Stronger prescriptions don’t have to mean thick, heavy lenses. We offer high-index lens materials that reduce visual distortion and appearance, while maintaining a sleek and attractive profile for looks and comfort.
Fast Turnaround and Convenient Collection
Once your glasses are ordered, we ensure accurate manufacturing and prompt quality control. Most orders are ready within 7–10 working days. For urgent needs, in-branch express options and priority packages ensure you get your vision correction fast.
A Seamless Shopping Experience, Tailored to You
We know choosing glasses is personal. That’s why we make the entire process smooth—from start to finish.
Personal Styling Consultations
Before you choose a frame, we offer in-store consultations that consider your facial symmetry, skin tone, lifestyle, style preferences, and wardrobe. Our staff guides you through frames to ensure they highlight your best features and match your aesthetic.
3D Try-On Technology
Some locations offer augmented reality try-on systems, letting you visualize glasses in real time and make confident decisions before purchase.
Transparent Pricing and No Surprises
We maintain clear pricing on frames, lenses, and coatings—so you know exactly what you’re investing in. Bundles combine eye examinations, premium lenses, and frames into accessible options at a transparent price.
Taking Care of Your Glasses
For your glasses to serve you well, proper care is essential.
Cleaning and Storage Tips
Clean lenses daily using microfiber cloths and recommended lens spray. Avoid abrasive materials. Store your glasses in a durable hard case when not in use to prevent scratches and structural damage.
Adjustment and Maintenance
All Optic Edge locations offer free minor adjustments—tightening screws, adjusting nose pads, and aligning temples. This support ensures a consistent, comfortable fit.
Coatings and Lens Repair
If the scratch-resistant coating wears down, we offer rejuvenation services or replacement lens options. We also assist with lens replacement if your prescription changes, without requiring a new frame.
Warranty, Replacement, and Upgrades
We stand behind every pair of glasses we sell.
Frame and Lens Warranties
Every eyeglass purchase includes warranties against manufacturer defects in frames and lenses. Coverage includes hinge failures, cosmetic defects, or coating issues.
Upgrade Options
Prescription changes? Style change? Our upgrade programs offer trade-in credit for new lenses or frames at discounted prices when accommodating your evolving needs.
Customization
We can customize iris tints, edge shapes, frame etching, and even provide prescription blanks to keep on hand for adventure or backup pairs.
