The whole pair of eyeglasses is famous for its hinge without screws, which is elegant and flexible. Moreover, this type of eyeglasses can be bended to suit different faces and solve the problems caused by unsuitability of the ear height.

Three Ways to Get the Cheapest Eyeglasses

March 13th, 2011 by Yaron Cheng No comments »

When it comes to buying eyeglasses, many people care the price most. Well, where can we get the cheapest eyeglasses? I think there are three ways listed as below:

First, we can get them from the roadside stalls. As we know, there are large numbers of roadside stalls selling various kinds of eyewear including myopic eyeglasses, presbyopic glasses and sunglasses. All of these eyewears are sold at prices that are lower than anyone could image. Even we can get a pair of sunglasses with only 10 dollars. So you can get the cheapest eyeglasses here. However, such eyeglasses are usually with bad quality and have no functions of vision correction or eye protection; what’s worse, they may do harm to our eyes. For this reason, we’d better not buy eyewear from the roadside stalls.

Second, we can get them from the formal eyeglasses stores or department stores when they are launching promotions such as offering discounts. Generally speaking, we can buy the eyeglasses at the lowest price at that time. But we should notice whether the merchants have raised their prices before the promotions. Hence, we should keep an eye on the prices of the eyeglasses we are interested in at ordinary time so as to check if they are really the lowest.

Third, we can get them from the online stores. Nowadays, there are more and more eyeglasses stores on the internet. We can find the cheapest eyeglasses by comparing the prices of the glasses without going outside. This is a both time-saving and convenient way to buy glasses. Nevertheless, we will never know the quality and fitness of the eyeglasses before we receive them. So, this is to some extent a risk. But if we choose some reputable eyeglasses stores, this risk will be reduced to the minimum.

Based on the above three ways, which one do you think is the best?

Seven Classic Patterns of Sunglasses

March 11th, 2011 by Jean Caster No comments »

Nowadays, more and more people are inclined to wear sunglasses either for protecting their eyes from the harmful sunlight or UV ray or only for decorations. Even though there are thousands of sunglasses various in styles, colors and designs, they can be divided into seven classic patterns.

1. Retro butterfly

Retro butterfly

Basically, butterfly-shaped sunglasses fit the small faces best, which beautifies the lines of the eyes. However, the easterners are not suitable to wear such sunglasses as their cheekbones are too flat and their eyelashes are likely to contact the lenses.

2. Rectangular

Rectangular sunglasses

Rectangular sunglasses often give us a serious impression which makes the wearer more authoritative. What’s more, the wearer’s face will look smaller with a pair of rectangular sunglasses.

3. Round

Round sunglasses

Round sunglasses have a strict requirement to the face shapes. For instance, if a person who has wide or round face wears a pair of round sunglasses, his/her face will look like the Five Ring Olympic flag; while if he/she has a rectangular face, the round sunglasses will make her two pieces of cakes.

4. Water-drop

unique sunglass

Unlike the traditional sunglasses, the lower glasses frame of this type of sunglasses is designed to look like a drop of water, which is fashionable and full of emotions. This unique sunglass breaks and remodels the facial line, which is fairly funny.

5. Wayfarer

Wayfarer sunglasses

Actually, Wayfarer sunglasses are not hi-tech products at all. However, their simple and decent styles as well as their half-olive-shaped glasses frames are suitable for any people. Therefore, they are quite popular.

6. Aviator

Aviator sunglasses

No other sunglasses are hotter than this collection of sunwear. The secret why they can be popular in the fashion world for such a long time is the high-quality design which they have been committed to. The lenses of these sunglasses are anti-cracking, and can block 100% of the harmful UV ray.

7. Goggle

Goggle

The goggles specially designed for the drivers are not only used to block wind or dirt, instead they have become the symbol of fashion. Goggles can be used to decorate big faces, but wide and rectangular faces should avoid wear them as far as possible.

What are the Most Important Factors We Should Concern When Purchasing Eyeglasses?

March 10th, 2011 by Paul Benjamin No comments »

Yesterday, I saw a man pedaling eyeglasses to the passerbys on the street when I was on my way home. The seller introduced that his eyewear were various in types, such as myopic eyeglasses, presbyopic eyeglasses and even sunglasses. What’s more, the lens degrees were more complete than anyone could image. They varied from 100 degrees to 1,000 degrees, which could meet the demands of almost all the people with different degrees. What surprised me was that the seller sold one pair of presbyopic eyeglasses to a woman at only $2 after several rounds of bargains with the woman but actually he charged her $50 initially. I had never heard that a pair of glasses could be sold at such a low price, so I asked the woman how she thought of the presbyopic eyeglasses. He told me that this eyeglass felt quite good after trying it on. And she also deemed that “cheap” was the most important factor that she would concern while selecting eyeglasses, no matter how the quality of the eyeglasses was. But I didn’t agree with her.

For this reason, I visited an eyeglasses store near my house. According to the shop owner, it was not a simple process to fill a prescription. Each link, from optometry to filling a prescription, should not be neglected. Besides, eyeglasses were different from the ordinary commodities. High-quality eyeglasses could not only improve our life, but also protect our eyes; while poor-quality eyeglasses could not improve our life, yet might damage our eyes. So, we should not judge a pair of eyeglasses only from its price, instead we should take all aspects such as the eyeglasses quality, protection function, etc. into account.

If you don’t want to spend much on your eyewear, I suggest you buy cheap eyeglasses online. The emergence of e-commerce makes it possible for us to buy things from the online stores, such as clothes, shoes, foods, digital products, electric appliances and anything we need in our life. For sure, it is not a difficult thing to buy eyeglasses online. Generally, the eyeglasses sold at the online stores are much cheaper than that in the local glasses stores but they have never compromised over the qualities. Therefore, you can get a pair of eyeglasses with high quality and at a reasonable price.

Price is no doubt an important factor that most of us will care about but quality and protection function are much more important while we purchasing eyeglasses.

Lady GaGa’s New Stylish Style Guides the Innovative Idea in Sunglasses

March 9th, 2011 by Andrew Rabinowitz No comments »

When it comes to Lady GaGa, it is no longer appropriate to say that she is the trendsetter as she has already left fashion and trend behind her. And those so-called fashions are all following her enthusiastically. After the first album has been the best seller, Lady GaGa’s second album The Frame Monster has also become the essence of fashion. Especially the gold hair, white fur coat, weird high-heeled shoes, white nail polish and even the white mouse headwear in her MV Bad Romance all have become the imitation objects of the common people. Of course, the cool Carrera retro sunglasses cannot be ignored by us.

We cannot image how boring and meretricious the world will be without Lady GaGa. She is alternative, out in left field and weird but no one dislikes her. Even the famous celebrities would track every action of GaGa furiously. The American athlete Johnny Weir who got the sixth at the Vancouver Winter Olympic Games is also a fan of GaGa. He has once played the song Poker Face that is familiar to all of us by making up him as Lady GaGa.

In the MV of Bad Romance, GaGa’s role is contentious and brave, which strengthens her overall charm. While Carrera that is popular for its trendy novelty sunglasses styles among the young and fashionable people in the world adopts a pair of Champion series retro sunglasses to echo the clean and fresh sight scene, which has highlighted GaGa’s fareless and confident stage image.

Carrera retro sunglasses not only fascinate Lady GaGa, Brad Pitt also appeared at the Cannes festival of 2009 by wearing a pair of Carrera 1987 sunglasses. The screams and cheers brought by this sunglass could not be described by deafening more. Champion retro sunglasses are made from Optyl and are light weighted. That is why GaGa can dance lightheartedly by wearing it.

Inferior-quality Non Prescription Glasses May Do Harm to Our Eyes

March 8th, 2011 by Jay Furlong No comments »

Many people deem that eyeglasses are exclusive to those who have vision problems, but actually there are numerous common people wearing glasses with plain lenses for decorations. We call these glasses plain eyeglasses or non prescription glasses.

Non prescription glasses have the functions of preventing wind and sand as well as protecting the eyes from the UV rays or infrared ray. What’s more, they can be used for decorations. Therefore, they are popular among the ordinary people who love beauty. Generally speaking, wearing non prescription eyeglasses is harmless to our eyes as they have no degrees. But poor-quality non prescription eyeglasses may still do harm to our eyes.

In theory, there are no degrees at all parts of the lenses of the non prescription glasses. However, for some inferior lenses, they are plain in the centers but there are still some degrees at the peripheral parts. As for whether these degrees are harmful or not, it depends on whether the error is within the reasonable range. According to the international conventions and state standards, the allowable vertex power error of the plain glasses shall be within±12 degrees, which has no effect on the vision of the wearer. But if the deviation is too great, the wearer’s vision will be damaged. For instance, the sunglasses available on the market are supposed to be with plain lenses, but as some inferior-quality sunglasses are with degrees the wearers will feel dizzy, headachy or swollen in the eyes, etc. after wearing them for a while. What’s worse, their vision may be deteriorated if they wear them for a long time.

For this reason, quality is also a very important factor that we should concern when we select non prescription glasses. If we feel dizzy or giddy or have other uncomfortable feelings when we are wearing a pair of plain glasses, just take it off immediately and don’t let it damage our vision.

Be Cautious When Selecting Prescription Swimming Goggles

March 7th, 2011 by Mark Burns No comments »

The emergence of prescription sports glasses is a good news for the myopia sports fans. Prescription sport glasses have the functions that the common prescription glasses own and their surfaces are made from impact resistant PC material, so that the myopic people can enjoy the fun brought by sports activities. Prescription swimming goggle is one kind of prescription sports glasses.

In recent days, the prescription swimming goggles have attracted many people who have suffered from myopia but love doing sports. However, the right and left lenses of such glasses have the same degrees and cannot be customized. Therefore, the experts suggest that we should be cautious when selecting prescription swimming goggles to maintain the health of our eyes.

It is learned that the prescription swimming goggles available on the market are all finished products of which the lenses cannot be removed or replaced, let alone be customized. “There are many people consulting and having the intention of purchasing” said by a seller in a pro shop, “but as the right and left degrees are the same, some customers cannot choose a proper pair because their degrees are quite different in the right and left eyes.” A journalist asked if he could choose to customize the lenses as there was 100 degrees difference between his right and left eyes. The staff told him that all of these sports glasses were finished products and couldn’t be customized. Moreover, he even said there would not be so much impact as long as the difference of the degrees was not significant since we seldom wear them.

In fact, it is not advocated to sell finished sports glasses essentially. The customers should be cautious when purchasing such glasses for the sake of eye health. If you have to buy prescription swimming goggles, do remember that the degrees of the two lenses should be the same as far as possible. There is reflection in water, hence the customers should reduce the degrees of the lenses to such an extent that the degree difference is within 50 while selecting a pair of prescription swimming goggles. If you have astigmatism, it is also necessary to add your astigmatism degrees with your prescription degrees.

The Difference between Clip-on Sunglasses and Prescription Sunglasses

March 6th, 2011 by Connie Robertson No comments »

As the symbol of fashion, sunglasses are undoubtedly favored by numerous people who want to have a stylish look. Besides, sunglasses are also a useful tool to protect the eyes from the strong sunlight or harmful UV ray. However, almost the sunglasses available on the market are designed to be with plain lenses. For people who are suffering from vision problems, these sunglasses may have the function of protection but they are useless in vision correction. Therefore, some people choose to wear clip-on sunglasses while the others prefer to use prescription sunglasses in order to correct their vision and protect their eyes at the same time. Actually, both clip on sunglasses and prescription sunglasses have their own advantages and disadvantages.

Clip on sunglasses consists of two parts, namely a common pair of prescription sunglasses and a pair of clip ons without prescriptions. Such sunglasses can be used both indoors and outdoors. When you go outside, you can turn down the clip ons to protect your eyes from the sunlight and UV ray; when you come back indoors, you can turn up the clip ons and see objects through the prescription eyeglasses lens. But the clip on sun glasses may make you look bad. The prescription sunglasses have the same appearances with the common sunglasses but the lenses of former are with prescriptions which the latter are absent of. So no one knows you are wearing a pair of prescription sunglasses unless he/she is informed of this. But it is only suitable to be used outdoors.

Besides, the clip on sunglasses is always heavy in weight as it has additional clip ons. So you may feel uncomfortable and being under great stress if you wear it for a long time; while the prescription sunglasses are much lighter than clip on sun glasses. For this reason, people are more likely to choose prescription sunglasses.

No matter you choose clip on sunglasses or prescription sunglasses, do remember to ensure it’s quality since wearing inferior-quality sunglasses may do harm to your eyes.

It is not Easy to Operate a Retail Eyeglasses Frames Store

March 3rd, 2011 by Jean Caster No comments »

I have an eyeglasses store which was established in 2009. Although this is a retail store but all of my eyeglasses are sold at wholesale prices. That is to say, I am selling wholesale eyeglass frames. Viewing the past 2 years of sales, I have drawn a conclusion that it is difficult to operate such an eyeglasses store.

First of all, the customers often doubt the quality of my glasses as they don’t believe that the glasses can be sold at such low prices. For this reason, I always explain to them that all of my products are high-quality wholesale eyeglass frames which are directly from the manufacturers. As there are no resellers between the manufacturers and I, I can offer the glasses at such reasonable prices. Although I can convince a majority of customers to buy glasses at my store, some of them still choose to leave out and go to other glasses stores where the prices are much higher than mine for they think the high-quality things must be expensive. I have tried my best to persuade them but only find that every effort is in vain.

Moreover, the competitors always trouble me since they think I am taking the bread out of their mouths. For instance, they always come to my store for fooling about in the name of customers. They require me to take out numerous pairs of eyeglasses to try on and complain none of my glasses is suitable for them. Even some of them will say my glasses are with poor qualities. But these boring “customers” have never bought eyeglasses eventually. I am fed up with them.

In fact, apart from what I mentioned above, the industrial and commercial bureau has once come to my store for an investigation. Later I knew that I was reported by someone who was ill-disposed since he thought I was selling fakes. I felt being treated unjustly at that time. Fortunately, I was proved to be innocent finally.

Now I am hesitating whether I should continue selling the wholesale eyeglass frames or raise the prices to make others believe that I am selling authentic glasses. Hope someone can do me a favor.
