Q. How does an anti–reflective coating help?
An anti-reflective coating is designed to let light through the lens, not to bounce off of it causing reflections. It helps to eliminate glare when driving at night, using computers, and when under overhead lighting. Cosmetically, it makes the lenses almost "disappear" in your frame, letting people see you more naturally. This is noticeable with today's completely frameless eyewear, creating a completely minimal look for the wearer.

Q. Can I have my glasses done in an hour?
With our on-site edging lab, using the newest technology available, most single vision lenses can be done within an hour. Bifocals & progressives need to be custom ordered and will take from 2 to 10 days, depending on the coatings, type of prescription and type of lens.

Q. What’s the difference between progressives and lined bifocals?
There is a big difference! Progressives are able to provide more natural vision at all distances. With the lined style you are only able to see clearly in the distance and near. There is no intermediate vision with the lined bifocal. Cosmetically progressives are more appealing as there is no visible line for others to see. At the Glenmore Landing Vision Center we offer a 60-day trial with progressives. We feel a progressive is the most advantageous way to go for most of our patients. Occasionally we need to resort back to a lined bifocal and we will refit the lenses within the first 60 days of wear.
