Frames For Children

By Jasmine Wallace


When you first enter the optician with your child for the first it resembles a sweet shop to them and possibly you with everything on display. Where do you start? What do you choose? Most parents may feel uncomfortable especially if they themselves do not wear spectacles.

Your optician will first of all start with the prescription you have been given and you can both take things from there. There are different factors to consider including whether the child is long sighted or near sighted. Here are some ways which you will helpful in the minefield of spectacle buying.

Being a child and broken glasses come hand in hand. They are often running everywhere or bumping into objects which often result in either the frame breaking or the lens. One way around this problem is to ask for a really strong lens and also tough frames. Hopefully the lens are also scratch resistant.

Frames often break in the hands of small children as they are constantly playing with the glasses while sitting or out playing. Only small hinges are attached to either side of the frame which holds the glasses together. They are broken easily which the kid appears to forget.

One way around this problem is to purchase an extra set of glasses at the same time of the original pair. This is sound advice were children are concerned because of all the sports they have on after or during school. You can even ask if they have a special toughen pair to cope with all the sports and climbing your child may do each week.

Opticians can offer you insurance for your children's glasses in the event of breakage. Insurance is a fabulous way of keeping costs down low when the time comes to visit for a replacement pair. Ask the eye wear doctor what is included in your warranty and what you need to pay extra for such as lens.
