Question 5

Question 7

What's the difference between an ophthalmologist and an optometrist?

Accepted Answer

While both are eye doctors, they have different responsibilities. An optometrist will check the overall health of the eye and determine if glasses are needed. If we determine that medical procedures are needed, or if there’s a medical concern, we refer the patient to an ophthalmologist.

Question 8

Are all ophthalmic lenses the same?

Accepted Answer

Lens technologies are very different. Our expert opticians utilize the latest technology to measure and fit our patients with Shamir lenses. Our patients have much better success adapting to their prescriptions than with other lens types, specifically progressive lenses.

Shamir lenses ReCreate Perfect Vision™ by offering the most advanced technological lens solution available to the marketplace at any given time, delivering unparalleled customer service, and the latest technology and state-of-the-art equipment such as the Shamir Spark Mi Up (that we have at each of our locations).
