A Personalized Eyewear Experience

Buying glasses here is more than picking frames from a shelf. We take time to learn about your day-to-day life, how you work, play, and move, so we can recommend options that look great and support your needs. 

An experienced staff member will sit with you 1-on-1 and consider your prescription, face shape, skin tone, and style preferences to narrow down frames that truly fit you. With your feedback guiding the process, you’ll feel confident in the frames you choose. 

Once selected, we’ll walk you through lens options, pricing, and custom measurements and confirm that your new glasses deliver clarity, comfort, and style in equal measure. Visit us today!

Glasses for
Kids

Children deserve eyewear that’s both durable and comfortable, while still reflecting their personalities. Our selection of kids’ glasses includes lightweight, sturdy frames designed to keep up with play while fitting securely for all-day wear. 

With 1-on-1 guidance from our optician, kids can try different shapes and colors. We’ll make the experience fun while checking that their glasses meet their unique vision needs.

Independent amd Eco-Friendly Eyewear

Your glasses should do more than correct your vision; they should reflect who you are. We proudly feature independent eyewear designers who prioritize craftsmanship and individuality. These collections offer unique designs and timeless quality, so your glasses never feel generic. 

We also carry eco-friendly lines made with sustainable materials for those who want to align their eyewear with their values. Whether you’re drawn to bold statement frames or understated classics, our curated selection allows you to choose with confidence.

Lens Options Designed Around You

Different lifestyles call for different lenses. At Advanced EyeCare Center P.C., we provide a full range of lens types and treatments tailored to your needs:

  • Anti-reflective coatings to reduce glare from screens and headlights.
  • Blue light filters to support comfort during long hours of digital use.
  • Photochromic lenses that transition seamlessly from indoors to outdoors.
  • High index and aspheric lenses for thinner, lighter options in stronger prescriptions.
  • Progressive and multifocal lenses to support clear vision at every distance.
  • UV-blocking coatings for essential daily eye protection.

We’ll guide you through each option so your lenses work as well as your frames look.
