How to select kids glasses

November 6th, 2009 by Sam Sutton No comments »

Kids glasses market is expanding at a rapid speed. As the overwhelming spread of TV and Internet, the number of kids that get myopia is increasing. Of course, kids eyeglasses are not only for vision correction. Sometimes, kids want fashion too. You can find kids glasses in a variety of styles and kid-friendly colors.

There are some factors you should keep in mind while shopping for kids eyeglasses. Polycarbonate lenses are impact-resistant and lightweight so that most of kids glasses are made of them. Scratch-resistant coatings make kids glasses more resistant since kids are mischievous. Kids eyeglasses with this coating usually last a little longer. Silicone nose pads are more softer and comfortable so they often appear in kids glasses. They also have a non-slip surface that makes the glasses stable. Kids eyeglasses should be equipped with spring hinges. These hinges allow the temples to bend outward when putting on the glasses or taking off. This is important because some kids are lazy and always yank off the glasses with a single hand. Since kids grow up quickly, a one-year warranty of kids glasses is enough. But you should ask for a scratch warranty.

The taste of kids towards eyeglasses is significantly influenced by popular characters or childhood icons. Harry Potter, Sponge Bob and Barbie set some fashions for kids glasses. Some trends of kids eyeglasses also exist. Many kids like the classic designs worn by adults, just in different scale. Branded or licensed kids glasses are becoming popular. Kids sunglasses are useful to protect kids’ eyes from harmful rays.

Vision health care has become a routine part of computer users’ lives. Surveys show nearly 50% of adult computer users with a college education are myopia in USA, and a child in America spend several hours on a computer while doing homework, surfing the internet, playing video games and talking online with little regard for eye health care. Definitely, vision health care is becoming more and more important to computer users.

Many vision health care doctors who specialize in children’s eye health care say sustain computer use puts kids at higher risk for childhood myopia. Some people have a misunderstand in vision health care that it is necessary to wear a special eye protection when working on the computer, but according to eye health care experts, computer screens do not emit enough harmful rays to cause eye damage.

Relieving eyestrains is one of the important vision health care measures to computer users. As eye health care experts often pointed out, computer users should look up and far away about every 15 minutes preferably out a window or across a room. Also, a people who always work on a computer is supposed to see the vision health care practitioners for regular eye health care and exams, for computer users can develop vision changes, an outdated prescription may cause lots of eyestrain.

In addition, proper computer glasses are also good for computer users’ vision health care; they are available for those who have trouble focusing on a screen. Of course, a person who has urgent questions regarding vision health care, it is better to call an eye health care practitioner for personal vision health care advice on the treatment of one’s own specific condition.

Kids and eye wear

November 5th, 2009 by Stephen Simon No comments »

In today’s world higher percentage of kids are getting disorders of eyesight, mostly nearsighted. Some of the kids get pseudomyopia which needs to be treated by doctors and they may recover to normal. While for some other kids the disorder of their eyesight become irreversible, then these kids need to buy eye wear to correct their sight.

Eye wear for kids range from eye wear with childhood marks or logos to some mature styles or a combination of both. When choosing eye wear for kids, one thing that should keep in mind is that we must let kids be an active participant to selecting the eye wear for them. This ensures that they will like to wear their eye wear. If kids do not like the eye wear, their frequent taking-off or eye wear from their heads will only worsen their eyesight.

On the frame materials, experts recommend parents to buy plastic eye wear instead of metal ones. In choosing the lenses, better quality anti-scratch lenses will be the first choice, as kids may use unsuitable cloth or paper to clean the lenses which will cause scratches and make the lenses blurry.

As kids are in the ages of fast growing, one pair of eye wear may become unfit in a short time. So a new pair of eye wear is necessary if the frame size does not fit again.

Another thing worth pointing is that parents need to carefully observe the reaction of kids after putting on a new eye wear, and be sensitively aware of any change of eyesight. If unfavorable thing occurs, consult and see a doctor for a new prescription, and get a new eye wear.

Funky glasses might brighten your face

November 5th, 2009 by Andrew Rabinowitz No comments »

I personally had the experience of meeting an old friend and feeling that his/her face seemed much brighter than his/her image in your memory. It is mostly due to the new funky glasses he/she is wearing. The stylish glass assuredly changes people’s face and spirit.

To get funky glass for your self is a huge job, as many factors should be put under consideration. In addition to following the traditional rules of face shape and skin colors, a couple of other points need also to be thought of before your final decision.

Don’t be alone to go for shopping stylish glass. Call your boyfriends or girlfriends to shop with you. Your best friends sometimes know better of your flavor and taste than you know of your self.

Be brave enough to try on all the available funky glasses, and never be shy. Experiences tell us that some daring try of those exaggerated styles may sit well on your nose. You never know of you don’t try on any stylish glass.

Remember to wear your contact lenses if you also use them as alternate. This makes you see clearer in the new funky glasses. Most of the “lenses” installed on the sample eyeglasses frames are just two pieces of plastic sheets with very bad optical properties. Wearing contact lenses do help you see better and make better decision.

After try-on you may finally purchase your funky glasses. If the store price is too high to be acceptable, try some online retailers with much lower prices for same or even better funky glass.

Differences between LASEK and LASIK

November 4th, 2009 by Arthur First No comments »

LASEK is short for Laser-Assisted Sub-Epithelial Keratectomy, and it is a type of laser vision surgery procedures. Similar with LASIK, LASEK intended to correct a person’s vision, reducing their dependency on eyeglasses or contact lenses by reshaping the anterior centrol cornea by an excimer laser.

LASEK procedure is very similar with LASIK. The operation also involves three steps. In the first step, the LASEK surgeon keeps the patient’s eye wide open during the laser vision surgery using a small instrument to secure the eyelids and creates a hinged corneal flap with a microkeratome blade or laser. Then the surgeon remodels the cornea underneath the flap with a laser as calculated before the laser vision surgery. In the last step of the laser vision surgery the flap is repositioned.

The only difference between the two laser vision surgeries is in the first step. LASEK only cut the outer layer of the cornea as flap when in LASIK a permanent flap is created in the deeper layers of the cornea.

Because the outer layer of the cornea, or epithelium, is a soft and rapidly regrowing layer in contact with the tear film, the out layer will quickly replace from limbal stem cells within a few days by itself after the laser vision surgery and will cause no loss of clarity. However, when the deeper layer is reshaped during the laser vision surgery such as LASIK, it remains the way with only limited healing. The cost of these two types of laser vision surgery is also about the same. For these reason, LASEK achieves more and more attentions all over the world.

Brief introduction of sun shade

November 4th, 2009 by William Krause No comments »

Sun shade, a latecomer in the eyeglasses market has been the beloved by glasses wearers with myopia or hyperopia. Since extended exposure to solar radiation may cause eye diseases such as cataracts, macular degeneration and pterygia, sunglasses were invented to protect people from sun’s UV rays. However, sun shades are more convenient without functional loss.

The available commodity related to sun shades in the market is the sun shade clip, which includes a pair of sun shade lens frames connected to each other through a bridge and two sun shades. The difference between a sun shade clip and a complete pair of sunglasses lies in that the former has no temples while the latter has two, which is also the origin of its advantage.

How does a sun shade clip work? The answer is the spectacles and sun shade clip assembly, which is a creative invention. The sun shade clip is interchangeably clipped to the spectacles frame. More particularly, spectacles, a spectacle frame and a sun shade clip can be manufactured as independent elements that may bring more recombination and meet personal preferences.

Another even more convenient sun shades is magnetic sunlens. These magnetic sun shades are made to match specific type of eyeglasses frames with magnets on the bridges. There are no general-purpose magnetic sun shades for all frames.

With the increasing public awareness of eye care and people’s demand of convenience in daily life, sun shades will be more and more popular.
