Children's glasses
Frames that fit small faces and lenses made for running, falling and growing. Dr. McNair checks the fit herself, and you leave with glasses your child wants to wear.
Frames sized for small faces, in many shapes and colors
Lenses in impact-resistant material
Adjustments and repairs when a frame bends
How we choose glasses for a child
Fit
The frame should sit on the nose without sliding, and the lenses should be centered in front of the eyes. We adjust each pair on your child's face.
Lenses
Impact-resistant lens material, and coatings you can choose. We explain what each one does and what it adds to the bill.
Durability
Flexible frames, spring hinges and straps for little ones who take their glasses off to play.
Try-on mornings
Come in with your child on a try-on morning, when no exam is needed. Try shapes and colors, see how they sit and take your time. Ask the front desk when the next one is.
A parent and child choose together
No brand names, only shapes, colors and materials

How glasses are billed
A vision plan may pay toward frames and lenses. Medical insurance pays for visits about an eye problem, not for glasses. We tell you what we expect your plan to pay before you order, and what is billed separately.
Vision plan
Routine exams, frames and lenses.
Medical insurance
Visits for an eye problem and follow-ups.
Paying yourself
A written estimate before you order.
Your prescription is yours
After the exam and fitting we give you a copy, with nothing to buy first. Fill it here or anywhere you like.
Questions we hear
What if my child's frame breaks?
Bring it in. We adjust bent frames and replace parts when we can, and tell you if a new frame makes more sense.
Can I buy the glasses somewhere else?
Yes. Your prescription is yours. We give you a copy, and you can fill it anywhere.
How do I help my child get used to glasses?
Start with short stretches and let your child pick the frame. We check the fit again if the glasses leave marks or slide.
