When you purchase a pair of eyeglasses from a eyeglass shop that delivers high quality, they will get multiple inspections prior to being delivered to you. These multiple inspections help make sure that you get a very nice high quality pair of eyeglasses. For me, I have worked for many different eyeglass companies including: Lenscrafters, Pearle Vision, and Doctor’s ValuVision.

Working at Doctor’s ValuVision was horrible. Eventually I left their company to work for another due to the frustrations with their overall quality. Needless to say, not only did eyeglasses get manufactured without having inspections, one of the most important inspections of all — The Final Inspection — was never done.

Customers would pick up their eyeglasses without them having a final inspection done. The final inspection is very important because it is the very last inspection done prior to delivering the eyeglasses to a customer. When I worked for Lenscrafters, they were very supportive of opticians performing final inspections on the eyeglasses being manufucatured. One of my jobs working at Lenscrafters in fact was as a final inspector. Read Full Article »

Many people wear bifocal eyeglasses, but unfortunately too, there is a large amount of people wearing bifocal eyeglasses with the bifocal set to the wrong height. While it is the job of the optician to make sure that your bifocal eyeglasses are fitted with the correct bifocal height, unfortunately to today’s standards that doesn’t seem to happen very often.

Globally it is the responsibility of the optician and the eyeglasses store to make sure that your eyeglasses fit correctly. However, you as the consumer and eyeglass wearer sometimes don’t realize that the height of your bifocal is incorrect. With that said, you can easily go the entire life of your eyeglasses not knowing that you suffer from wearing a pair of your eyeglasses incorrectly.

Here is a little tip for you that will help educate you more about the proper height of a bifocal. While opticians indeed do their job with measuring you with the eyeglasses on your face, rarely do they ask you to sit in your natural state. Everyone has their own unique sitting and standing positions. People all have different postures. With that though, rarely do opticians ask you to sit in your natural state. Instead, they ask you to sit up straight in your chair while they take your bifocal measurement. Read Full Article »

So you like the style and fashion statement made with DKNY Eyeglasses and you are now looking for the best deals on the frames. Lucky for you, I have taken some time towards researching this and I have found quite a few sites that offer DKNY Eyeglasses deals.

Now before we get this, I want to say that you have a decision to make. You need to decide whether you want to purchase the frame only or visit an eyeglass shop and purchase the compete pair of eyeglasses (frame and lenses). Typically, you can get a better deal when you order a complete pair of eyeglasses from your local eyeglass store. However, there may be situations where you really have your heart set on a frame, such as DKNY Eyeglasses and you can’t find a store that offers them.

Here are a few sites that I found to be offering some killer deals on DKNY Eyeglasses. The first site is a place called Shopping.com. They offer a large variety of products, in addition to eyeglass frames. They have an entire section on DKNY Eyeglass Frames which all seem to be sold directly on eBay. Check it out, it’s pretty cool and it can save you major money.

The next site I found is a place called, OpticsPlanet.com. These folks carry most all major brands of eyeglass frames, including DKNY Eyeglass Frames. This place is more expensive than Shopping.com, but you might have better luck finding what you want. The other site is better for price, as their DKNY eyeglasses are priced under $40 dollars where with OpticsPlanet.com, they have then over $100.
