Choosing frames & lenses​

CHOOSING FRAMES & LENSES​

Choosing a frame​

Choosing a set of spectacles is an important decision. Our staff are here to help you select a pair that work best for you, by selecting the right frames that best suit you and your optical needs. We want to make sure that your spectacles not only enhance your vision, but are both comfortable and stylish.

We have a wide selection of frames to choose from – different shapes, colours and material. During an optical visit, you’re welcome to try on different frames to find out which style works for you. You can choose from our bronze, silver and gold tier range of spectacles. The key to choosing a set of frames that suits your personal style is choosing a set that suits your face shape. Talk to one of our dispensing opticians for more information.
