I'd like to know the name of the tool with all of the lenses and knobs that an Ophthalmologists uses to get someone's eyeglass prescription? Thanks.

An eyeglass prescription is a written order by an optometrist or ophthalmologist to an optician for eyeglasses. It specifies the refractive power to which the eyeglasses are to be made in order to correct blurred vision due to refractive errors, including myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia. It is typically determined using a phoropter or an automated refractor.

I am getting a new pair of eyeglass, and I was what kind of eyeglass frame would look good on me. I have straight black hair to my shoulder, brown eyes, small nose and mouth. And the shape of my face is between round and triangular. Please answer me if you've seen people or yourself has the similar feature as me and know what kind of eyeglass look good on them.


I just bought some new frames and the women at the eye doctor's were great. I have a round face and my old frames were round. They said it was a big no-no. Circles on a round face make you look rounder. They steered me to a nice pair of rectangular frames by D&G. They look great and I have had tons of compliments.

Does it mean that the temples of the eyeglass frame can bend outward? Spring hinges opposed to what? Thanks.


It means that the legs where they attach to the frame will be more flexible than more traditional hinges. So you can bend the legs out slightly to fit on to your ears and on the side of your head. They make for a more comfortable fit. x

Eyeglass stores invariably rip you off with huge markups (like 1000%) on eyeglass frames, but it has proven very difficult to find alternate sources for good-quality eyeglass frames at much more reasonable markups.


Walmart, or if you find a good deal like a one time sale somewhere else. Actually you can also buy peoples old frames on ebay and switch out the lenses if you're really thrifty.

What online site should i use to replace my eyeglass lenses?
happy bird day MP!

I need to replace the lenses in an old pair of glasses but cannot afford to pay Lenscrafter/Pearl Vision prices. Has anyone used an online site to replace their eyeglass lenses before?


Yep. The site is www.optical4less.com
I've been using their services for quite a while now. Been buying glasses and replacing lenses without a problem. I must say Optical4less is the smoothest and cheapest online store out there. I trust them 100% as I've been using them for so long already and you should too. Their quality is also excellent. I highly recommend them for this task. Just contact them if you aren't quite sure where to navigate on the site. They have impeccable customer support as well. You won't be disappointed. Good luck.

  • Midland's Eyeglass Recycling Center has national reputation

    And so, the survival of the Downtown Lions Club is crucial if the club’s eyeglass recycling center hopes to remain not only well respected nationally but simply operational. Concerns have risen over the last several years of the need for new members. Rolls are down 66 percent in the last 20 years, and the current club membership is just more than 100. If the Downtown Lions’ Club were forced to close down because of a lack of members in the next 4-5 years, Midland also would lose its eyeglass center. And that, according to Fitzgerald, would be a loss that would be felt around the world.
