Common Questions About Advanced Lenses
-
Do I need an eye exam before ordering advanced lenses?
Yes. Premium designs need a current prescription and frame measurements. Start with a comprehensive eye exam appointment on Kings Highway — we then recommend lens families for your goals.
-
Which lens is best for computer and screen time?
-
What is the difference between progressives and bifocals?
Bifocals use a visible near segment. Varilux progressives blend zones without a line and add intermediate help for screens and driving.
-
Does insurance cover premium lens upgrades?
Plans often cover base lenses; upgrades may add a copay. See insurance we accept or call (718) 336-1060 before ordering.
-
Can I get same-day glasses with premium lenses?
Timing depends on prescription and lens type. We share a realistic pickup estimate when you order — many simpler jobs finish in-house when workload allows.
