Finding the Perfect Pair of Eyeglasses for Comfort and Style

The perfect pair of eyeglasses lets you see well, sits light on your face and looks like you. You get there in three steps: choose lenses, read your prescription, then pick frames.

Pick the Right Lenses for Your Perfect Pair of Eyeglasses

Lenses come in four main types. Single-vision lenses correct one distance.

Bifocals and trifocals have set zones for different distances. Progressive lenses blend those zones with no visible lines.

A reader and a golfer often want different lenses, so think about your own days first. Our eyeglass lens options guide covers coatings and features, and you can compare progressive lenses and bifocals here.

Understand Your Prescription

Your prescription lists numbers such as SPH, CYL, axis, and PD. Together they tell the lab how to shape your lenses.

Knowing what each one means helps you ask better questions at the counter. Our eyeglass prescription guide explains the terms in plain words.

Find Frames for the Perfect Pair of Eyeglasses

Frames come in full-rim, half-rim, and rimless styles. Most are plastic, metal, or titanium.

When you shop, look at your face shape, your skin tone and the clothes you wear most. Our eyeglass frames guide shows which shapes suit which faces.

Let Your Style Show

People notice your glasses before they notice your shirt. Pick frames you like seeing in the mirror. If you stay active, choose a pair that stays put on the golf course, at the club, or out with friends.

Care for Your Eyeglasses

Clean your glasses, keep them in a case and get them adjusted when they slip. Our eyeglass cleaning tips cover the basics. A yearly exam keeps your prescription current, so book an eye exam when it is time.
