Children’s Eyewear

Our New York State licensed opticians are experts in fitting children of all ages, including infants. You may rest assured that your child will be measured precisely and that the doctor’s prescription will be filled to exacting standards.

Our children’s lenses are made in either polycarbonate or trivex, the two most impact resistant materials on the market. We carry a large selection of frames for children in beautiful colors and multiple size options, including sports/safety eyewear. Our in-house finishing lab fabricates the majority of the glasses we dispense for increased quality control.

We also carry frames for children with special needs, including children with Down Syndrome. These specially designed frames can make all the difference in a child being able to see clearly right through the center of the lens.

Bifocals for Children

Bifocals may be prescribed to help a child focus and aim their eyes more effectively. Bifocals may be helpful for children who have trouble changing their focus when looking from the desk to the front of the classroom and back again. Some children may show signs of strabismus (crossed-eyes) when looking at very close objects and bifocals may be used to help the eyes aim correctly.

Multifocals for Children

Multifocals may be prescribed to help a child focus and aim their eyes more effectively. They may be helpful for children who have trouble changing their focus when looking from the desk to the front of the classroom and back again. Some children may show signs of strabismus (crossed-eyes) when looking at very close objects and bifocals may be used to help the eyes aim correctly.
