Tips for Finding the Best Glasses for Your Kid

Children avoid wearing their glasses due to discomfort, a lack of interest in the style, an inability to enjoy an active lifestyle, or not fully understanding the importance of their eyewear. Addressing these concerns and implementing these tips can encourage kids to wear their glasses more consistently.

1. Let Them Have a Say:

Involving your child in the selection process ensures they have glasses they're excited to wear.

2. Prioritize Fit and Comfort:

Ensure the frames fit well on your child's nose and ears without pinching or slipping. Adjustable nose pads and flexible temple arms can enhance comfort, even during play.

3. Opt for Durability:

Kids will be kids, which means their glasses should be made of sturdy materials that withstand daily wear and tear.

4. Consider Lens Protection:

We recommend impact-resistant materials like polycarbonate to protect your child's eyes from accidents. Coatings such as anti-reflective and UV protection are also key for added protection.

5. Regular Eye Exams:

Children's eyes can change rapidly, and an accurate prescription is key to maintaining clear vision and preventing eye strain.

Unbreakable Nano Frames for Kids

At the heart of our kids’ collection are the remarkable Nano frames, eyewear that empowers your kids to explore, learn, and play without limits. Crafted with Siliflex™ technology, they can bend, twist, and turn without losing shape, making them virtually indestructible.

Why Choose Nano Frames for Your Child?

  • Durability Meets Comfort: Made from hypoallergenic materials, Nano frames are as comfortable as they are tough.
  • Style They'll Love: Who says eyeglasses can't be fun? With a wide array of colors and styles, your child will be spoilt for choice.
  • Safety First: Safety is paramount, and Nano frames deliver. The lenses are shatter-resistant and also offer both UVA and UVB protection.

Other Types of Kids' Eyeglasses at Medical Arts Optical

In addition to Nano frames, we offer a diverse range of eyeglasses. Here's a look at some of the types in our collection:

1. Single Vision Glasses:

These glasses are the most common type for children, designed to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism

2. Bifocal and Multifocal Lenses:

For children with myopia, a different prescription in each eye, or underdeveloped visual skills — these lenses can slow myopia, balance out different prescriptions in each eye, and promote better binocular vision.

3. Protective Sports Eyewear:

These glasses are made with durable, impact-resistant materials to safeguard your child's eyes during physical activities.

4. Blue Light-Blocking Glasses:

With the increasing time children spend in front of screens, blue light-blocking glasses are essential for reducing eye strain and improving sleep quality.

5. Fashion Frames:

For kids who value trends, we offer a range of fashionable frames that allow children to express their personality and style preferences while enjoying the benefits of corrected vision.
