Obtaining the best vision is a combination of good frame-fit and high quality lenses. Good frame-fit means the eyes are well centered or in the top third of the frame, and the temples should rest comfortably over the ears.
Beyond looking good, frames must also be able to withstand school, sports and playtime. They should be hard to break, flexible, and ultra lightweight. SPIN frames fit this profile perfectly, thanks to the immense durability of their advanced source material: TR90.
When frame fit and corrective lenses accurately compensate for vision problems, your child can enjoy the world around them clearly. In turn, this builds confidence. High quality lenses meet the demands of schoolwork, playing with friends and studying on the computer, all of which require a child’s eyes to work overtime. If your child must walk to and from school, clear vision is vital for safely navigating sidewalks and crosswalks.
Remember: even adolescents are still developing their coordination and motor skills. It’s important to make sure they are corrected to 20/20 vision so they can safely judge moving objects and distances as they become licensed drivers.
High quality lenses will have the following characteristics:
- Impact resistance (polycarbonate, Trivex)
- Reliable scratch coating
- Full anti-reflective coating (DuraVision Platinum)
- Good hydrophobic and oleophobic qualities for easy cleaning
- Lenses should be as light as possible.
We advise child to take an eye exam once school starts. Vision checks can be performed by an eye care professional near you and they don’t take long. A fresh eye exam will make sure your kids won’t be held back in their schoolwork by poor vision. While your at it, get the frames tuned-up and adjusted.
The earlier you get your child into quality lenses, the better their vision will develop over the years. Your kid can avoid many problems later in life if they are wearing glasses and sunglasses.
