Smile! You're On Camera!
We realize how difficult it is to see how you look when you view yourself with new frames in a mirror without your prescription lenses.
By using a digital camera to take your photo while trying on different frames, you can see how you look on our computer monitor, in focus with the aid of your prescription lenses.
Why Get Your Glasses From Your Optometrist?
After a comprehensive eye examination to determine the correct prescription, your optometrist makes a number of other decisions to ensure you have the proper eyewear to suit your lifestyle. You only receive the full benefit of your prescription if your eyewear is properly fitted.
All eyewear is not created equal and getting a "bargain" price does not mean you are receiving a good value by any means. Your optometrist has the advantage of offering glasses from a variety of different reputable labs in order to guarantee quality eyewear. Unlike many retail vision chains and optical stores, your optometrist is not limited to only specified manufacturers.
 
One of the nicest things about acquiring your eyeglasses from your optometrist is knowing the "true" cost of your eyewear. Retail optical channels may have tremendous markups and the actual cost of your glasses will never be disclosed to you. At Dr. Bauman & Associates, you are protected from misleading pricing by an itemized bill. Your itemized bill contains the actual cost of your glasses, there is no markup. To cover the cost of professional services involved in preparing and fitting your glasses, a simple dispensing fee is charged and itemized on your bill along with the manufacturers cost of your eyewear. Optometric dispensing staff are trained to provide the same high standards of professional care you have come to expect from your optometrist.
Exclusive Eyeglass Warranty
Included with your eyewear investment is the following:
  • Two year warranty on frame (manufacturer's defect)
  • Limited* two year warranty on lenses
  • Case and cleaning cloth
  • Adjustments and minor repairs.
* Replacement of one same prescription lens per eye for vision impairing scratches with purchase of CHC, UTMC or equivalent scratch resistant coating.
Lose Weight With High Index Lenses
"My glasses are too heavy" or "My glasses are leaving red marks on my nose" are frequently heard complaints. High index spectacle lenses can reduce the thickness of your lenses, plus make them a little lighter and better looking. If you are interested in weight reduction, ask us about high index lenses for your spectacle prescription on your next visit.
Caring For Your Glasses
DO'S DON'TS
  • Clean your glasses regularly with warm water and a mild liquid soap or lens cleaner. Pat the lens dry with a clean cloth.
  • Keep your glasses in your eyeglass case when not in use.
  • Put on and remove your glasses using two hands to maintain proper frame alignment.
  • Do not set your glasses down lens first.
  • Do not use hairspray or perfume mist around your eyewear.
  • Do not clean your glasses with facial tissues (the coarse fibers can damage coated lenses).
  • Do not use ammonia based cleaners (e.g. Windex) as they may strip the lens coating.
