Why Buy Your Glasses From St. Clair Optometry?

After a comprehensive eye examination to determine your eye health and eyeglass prescription, your optometrist makes a number of other recommendations to ensure that you receive high quality lenses and coatings in order to minimize distortion and help adaptation. Unfortunately, optical stores are not required to fulfill these recommendations for good quality lenses, and may substitute inferior quality in order to provide a bargain price.

We encourage you to get a price quote in our dispensary and compare it to local retailers but be sure to compare apples to apples. Remember that value includes quality as well as price. We will always tell you the exact brand name of the lenses and coatings that the doctor has recommended for your needs. This is what you must make sure does not get substituted for poorer quality materials when you are comparing prices.
