If you’ve been diagnosed with Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD), you’re not alone. It is estimated that as many as 16 million people in the United States have AMD. In fact, it’s a leading cause of blindness in people age 60 and older.
AMD is a condition that affects the center of the retina, called the macula. The macula is the part of the eye responsible for our most acute vision, which we use when reading, driving, and performing other activities that require fine, sharp, or straight-ahead vision.

How to Clean Your Glasses

1. Wash and dry your hands thoroughly. Before cleaning your eyeglasses, make sure your hands are free from dirt, grime, lotion and anything else that could be transferred to your lenses. Use lotion-free soap or dishwashing liquid and a clean, lint-free towel to clean your hands.

Zero G Titanium - “which refers to "zero gravity" or "weightlessness." This exclusive collection focuses on classic, modern, and timeless shapes in rich colors and unique patterns. Designed in California and handcrafted in Japan, Zero G is created with style, balance, comfort, and weightlessness in mind. All Zero G frames are hypoallergenic, 40% lighter than stainless-steel, and cut from a single sheet of surgical-grade titanium.

Traditionally, flat sheet metal eyewear has been limited to a mostly industrial look. By incorporating three-dimensional details, two-tone colors, and unique gradient prints, Zero G offers frames that are far from ordinary.

A lot more goes into selecting the perfect prescription glasses than simply turning in your prescription and choosing a frame. The type of lense you choose for your prescription eyewear is important, and more and more people are discovering the benefits of anti-reflective coating to get the most out of their eyewear.

Anti-reflective coatings (also known as anti-glare or AR coatings) are designed to minimize the amount of light reflected in your lenses. The coatings are applied either to the front, back, or both sides of your lenses so that the maximum amount of positive light reaches your eyes, giving you the clearest possible view.

Recently we recevied some nice comments from one of our awesome customers! Check it out!

I want to thank you again for such a great experience choosing my glasses! When I walked through the door, my husband commented that be there for hours, as always. To begin, a great part of my experience was the hospitality and friendliness we experienced! The glass of beer my hubby enjoyed while waiting in a comfortable chair for what he thought would be hours helped to get him to sit patiently without complaining I really can blame him since it has always been difficult for me to choose a frame to fit my face and personality. Everywhere else I've gone looking for glasses, all he would say was, "Those are nice", As his patience waned...When the glasses would come in, I would always look in the mirror and question my choice.

Here is Debbie, the winner of a pair of eyeglasses from State Optical Co and lenses from Zeiss. Debbie is wearing State Optical Co LaSalle in caramel silver. Beside Debbie is Ron Catterson, owner of Clear View Optix, and Debbie Young of State Optical Co. Congratulations!

Here is Joyce, the winner of a pair of eyeglasses from Zero G and lenses courtesy of US Optical. The frame is a Zero G Clinton, with a leopard gradient pattern. Congratulations!

History tends to repeat itself, and this is most true in fashion specifically.  A comeback we never saw coming has exploded among young and old eyeglass wearers across the globe; tortoiseshell eye glasses! The turtle-esque design adds that perfect pop of “wow!” to an otherwise boring facial accessory. The style is made to mimic the speckled design of some turtle shells, with colors of calming amber, honey, and mottled yellow.
