Buy Your Child's Glasses At The Best Optical Store Bensonhurst Brooklyn Offers

By Marci Glover


When it comes to buying glasses for one's child it's important to find a shop that not only has a great selection of little frames and lenses, but also a wonderful, caring staff who are dedicated to ensuring a perfect fit and positive experience for the child. By choosing the best kid-friendly optical store Bensonhurst Brooklyn customers can expect to get the best assistance and advice possible as far as purchasing and maintaining their children's eye-wear is concerned.

Most optometrists will be able to let parents know which shops cater to children's optical needs. If an optician has performed the eye exam, he or she may also sell frames and lenses and will have a suitable pair for the child, but if not, parents can simply take the child's prescription elsewhere.

Other parents who have a child with glasses can be a good source of information too, as they can likely recommend a place they have had a good experience with. Hearing from a satisfied customer that a certain store is superior in its service, choice of frames, and such can build one's confidence in the shop's ability to meet his or her expectations.

After making a list of two or more shops one may consider dealing with, it's wise to phone them and get additional details before making a trip in person, in particular if bringing the child along. Parents need to inquire about the store's selection of frames, purchasing policies, and expertise of their personnel.

Generally there is a wider selection of frames for adults than kids, since more older people wear glasses, but some stores don't fail to overlook this corner of the market and still provide a nice variety of children's styles. The parent needs to find out what the choices are for a child of that age, and if the shop offer fittings, adjustments, and lenses if the customer has purchased the frames somewhere else.

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 usually does not pay for prescription eye-wear, however some people may have a supplementary plan that does give some coverage with a deductible, so it's necessary to find out if the store deals with one's insurer if applicable, and if there are limitations. Buying two pairs of glasses at once will sometimes give customers a discount, and this can be quite helpful in the case of kids, who are bound to need them repaired at some point.
