Choose The Best Optical Store Bensonhurst Brooklyn Has To Offer For Buying Children's Glasses

By Marci Glover


Parents who are shopping for glasses for their young child need to find a store that features a nice variety of children's frames and lenses, along with a friendly, experienced staff who know how to fit kids for eye-wear and make their experience a fun one. By finding a great child-friendly optical store Bensonhurst Brooklyn clientele can enjoy caring and professional service when it comes to buying and repairing their child's glasses.

The child's optometrist should be happy to refer parents to optical shops that are geared towards providing children's eye-wear. If the child has an eye exam at an optician's, they usually sell frames and lenses too, but it isn't mandatory that the parent purchase them there.

Recommendations from people one knows who have a child with glasses can also be very helpful. This way the parent receives a first-hand account from someone who has dealt directly with a particular store. It can be reassuring to hear from others that a certain shop is excellent, and that they would highly recommend it.

Once a list of potential shops has been devised, call them up and find out more before actually going there in person, especially if bringing the child along. There are several questions the parent should ask when calling each store in order to find out more precisely certain details about what they sell, their expertise, and service policies.

Children are a minority group of eye-wear consumers, so the selection of frames in their size is usually smaller, however some stores stock a larger selection of kid's frames than others, so it's best to ask. The parent needs to let them know how old the child is, and he or she should also find out if they will provide lenses, fitting, and adjustments for frames purchased elsewhere if necessary.

It's an advantage if the opticians in the shop have lots of experience in working with kids, since it typically requires a whole other set of skills and a lot more patience to fit these lively little customers. Even if just one person fits this description, that is fine, but the parent needs to find out when he or she is working so they can schedule their child's fitting accordingly.

Kids are more likely than adults to end up breaking or scratching their glasses, so it's advisable to ask about any warranties the store may offer on its glasses. It's wise to find out exactly what is covered under warranty and what will attract an extra charge. Long coverage periods generally don't make sense for young children who will inevitably require new frames or even a new prescription in a year's time or less.

Health insurance programs don't usually cover the cost of eye-wear, but some types of supplementary plans may provide some coverage, so it pays to find out if the stores will accept any policy one may have, and if they do, does it only cover certain types of frames. A discount may be available at some shops if the customer opts to purchase two pairs of glasses at the same time, and this can be a good deal since kids are bound to end up needing their glasses fixed at some point and will therefore require a spare set.
