Prescription
Frames

When choosing your spectacles or sunglasses frame you should consider practicality, frequency of use and how the frame complements your lifestyle and your looks. The frame you choose should also be suitable for your prescription, which our friendly and highly trained staff at Cooper & Lourie Family Optometrists will advise you on.

Our staff will help you to choose a frame to enhance your personal style. Does your wardrobe make a strong statement? Spectacles with unusual shapes and colors might be for you. Do you mainly wear your spectacles at work? Discover for example which styles say “competent professional”. Whatever your personality or lifestyle, we will help you find the glasses best suited to you.

We will also help you to choose the right frame material for your prescription spectacles, whether you need them to be lightweight, flexible, super strong, and/or hypoallergenic.

Many of our frames utilise spring hinges which can be more durable if you are taking your glasses off regularly when you are not reading or working with a computer. The weight of the glasses will also influence your wearing comfort.

The next step is fashion and function. A mixture of both will usually be the best solution. We have a wide range of models and brands for you to choose from with a large variety of frame sizes to fit all ages from child to adult.

After choosing the right frame, it is equally important to select the most suitable lenses. We will be pleased to offer you the latest in lens technology and will advise you as to what will best suit both your prescription and your lifestyle.
