Frequently Asked Questions
Below are answers to some of the questions we are asked most often about our designer eyewear. If there is anything else you would like to know, our team is always happy to help.
Because we glaze most of our glasses on-site rather than sending them away, we are able to keep our prices highly competitive, even on designer frames. As an independent, family-run opticians we are also not tied to a single supplier, so we can source the best value options for you. It means you can enjoy a recognised designer name without paying over the odds, which is exactly the balance of style and affordability we aim to offer every client who visits us in Durham.
Yes. Our experienced team can glaze your chosen designer frames to your exact prescription, whether you need single vision, bifocal or varifocal lenses. We will talk you through the lens options that best suit your needs and your budget, so your new frames look great and work perfectly for the way you use them. If you are unsure which lenses are right for you, we are always happy to offer honest, friendly advice with no hard sell.
In many cases, yes. We can tint a complete pair into prescription sunglasses when you upgrade at the time of purchase, and many standard prescription frames can be made into sunglasses to give you more choice. As an Oakley and Ray-Ban stockist, we can also supply genuine Oakley and Ray-Ban prescription lenses with their compatible sunglass frames, so you can enjoy a designer look in the sunshine as well.
Our designer range changes regularly as new stock arrives, so the best way to see the latest brands and styles is to call in store and browse in person. Our team will be glad to show you around the collection and help you find something that suits you. If you would like to check what we have before visiting, you are welcome to get in touch with us and we will be happy to help.
Both our designer and standard frames are glazed on-site to the same high standard, so the main difference comes down to the brand and the style rather than the quality of the work. Our designer range features recognised names for those who want a particular look or label, while our standard frames offer excellent value across a wide choice of styles. Whichever you choose, our team will help you find something that suits your face, your prescription and your budget, with the same honest advice and no hard sell.
Once you have found the perfect designer frames, we can help you get the most out of them in a number of ways. Our lenses page covers the full range of lens options available, including upgrades such as anti-reflection coatings, thinner materials and photochromic lenses, so you can build the ideal pair from frame to lens. If you would like your frames tinted, we can turn any complete pair into prescription sunglasses for just £10 extra, giving you a designer sunglass look at a fraction of the cost of buying a separate pair. If your prescription has expired and needs updating before we can glaze your frames, we can arrange a comprehensive eye test at our Durham practice. And if you already have a designer pair you love and simply need the lenses updating, our reglaze service is a cost-effective way to keep the frames while refreshing the lenses. Our team will always take the time to help you find the right combination for your prescription, your style and your budget.
