Where Can I Get Glasses and Frames in Titusville?

Start with your vision plan. Most plans give you a frame allowance and pay part of the lenses, and we apply that at the counter, so the price you see is the price after benefits. The allowance works on our whole frame wall. Frame and lens offers come and go through the year, so call (321) 269-2021 or check our specials for what is running this month. We also carry value lines, such as Affordable Designs and Eight to Eighty, beside the designer frames.

Not always, so ask before you count on one. The lens is where most of the value in a pair of glasses lives. With us, someone from our optical sits with you and explains each lens option with its price. Then we apply your benefits and quote the balance before we order. Progressives, anti-glare coating, and photochromic lenses each change the total, so you see every piece first. We match the lens to your day and leave off the extras you would not notice.

Each eye gets its own line, and each number has one job. Sphere is the main power: a minus sign means nearsighted and a plus sign means farsighted. Cylinder is the amount of astigmatism, and axis is its direction. Add is the extra reading power for bifocals or progressives. If the numbers still look like a riddle, bring the prescription to either office and we will walk you through it. An out-of-date one? Book a comprehensive eye exam first.

Pupillary distance is the space between your pupils. It tells us where to center each lens so you look through the right spot. We measure it when you order, along with where your eyes sit in the frame you picked, so the lenses line up with your eyes. You do not need to bring it with you. It is part of ordering glasses at either office.

No, and one cannot stand in for the other. Glasses sit about half an inch in front of the eye and a contact lens sits on it, so the powers differ. A contact lens prescription also names the brand, curve, and size from a fitting on your eye. That is why contacts cannot be ordered from a glasses prescription. Want both? Tell us when you book, and we do the contact lens fitting in the same visit as your eye exam.

Yes. Our whole frame wall is online in our frame shop, and your phone camera shows a frame on your own face. Filter by brand, color, and eyeglasses or sunglasses. Ray-Ban and Oakley lead the wall, with Costa, Tom Ford, Maui Jim, Michael Kors, Coach, and Prada among the rest. It is the same inventory our shops carry, so a frame you like on the screen is one we can put in your hands. Inventory turns over, so the online brand list is the current one.

Yes. Many of the sunglasses on the wall at either office can be made in your prescription, from brands such as Maui Jim, Costa, Ray-Ban, and Oakley. If you fish, surf, or spend afternoons on the river, ask for polarized Xperio lenses. They cut the glare off the water so you can see into it. Want one pair for indoors and out? Photochromic lenses darken in the sun and clear inside. Ask for full UV protection either way, and browse sunglasses from home first.
