Sunglasses FAQs

What are the benefits of photochromic sunglasses?

Photochromic lenses (with or without prescription) adjust to brightness. They darken as you step outside on a sunny day and get lighter when you go indoors. This means that you can wear the same glasses everywhere without having to switch from regular glasses to sunglasses.

Are sunglass lens coatings worth it?

While sunglasses provide plenty of protection for your eyes, lens coatings add even more benefits. You can choose anti-reflective coatings to cut down on glare and make driving safer. Tinted sunglasses can help you see colors and detail more distinctly. Scratch-resistant coatings help prevent damage so you can enjoy your shades for longer.

Is it OK to wear sunglasses with contacts?

Unless your contact lenses provide 100% UV protection — most don’t — always remember to don your sunglasses before heading outdoors. Sunglasses with 100% UV protection screen out harmful rays and winds that tend to dry out your eyes more quickly. This is good news for contact lens wearers who run the risk of developing dry eye symptoms.

How to tell if sunglasses have UV protection?

To make sure that your sunglasses block 100% of UVA and UVB rays, make sure to purchase your shades from a licensed optometrist.

How Do I Choose the Right Sunglasses?

To select your perfect sunglasses, consider the following:

  • Frames

    You want your sunglasses to last, so choose durable, high-quality frames. Whether you choose plastic, acetate, aluminum, stainless steel or even wooden frames, make sure that the frames fit well, look good, and are comfortable to wear.

  • Lenses

    Lenses correct your vision, protect your eyes and enhance your style. Always choose lenses that screen out 100% of UV rays. You can also choose special features like anti-glare, polarized shades or tints. To prevent damage, select durable lenses.

  • Shape

    Sunglass shapes not only express your unique style; they provide a protective barrier against the elements. Wrap-around sunglasses shield your eyes from wind and flying debris. The right frames also complement your face and help you bring your best features forward.

  • Prescription

    Once you’ve undergone an eye exam, you can purchase sunglasses with the same prescription as your regular glasses. Wearing prescription sunglasses allows you to enjoy the outdoors while protecting your eyes from harmful UV rays.

Patient Reviews

One of the only glasses labs in town that has the ability to add an anti-fogging coat to their lense... s. This allowed me to get reading glasses that work in the bath (don't get fogged over). Trust me I called around town and this feature is hard to find!

I have a stigmatism and typically rely on my good eye to get around. When my vision with my good ey... e started to strain, I knew it was time to get it checked out. I did a search on Google and found Eye Tech Eyes. I scheduled an appointment with Dr. Trinidad and he exceeded my expectations. He gave me some options on either using contacts or glasses. I ended up going with both as I knew I would not always want to use contacts. I found some awesome glasses and I must say, they make me look really good! They had a ton of options to choose from. I highly recommend Dr. Trinidad and the team at Eye Tech Eyes! Thanks, again!

I've been seeing Dr. Lamei for 25 years and have referred many friends to her. She's warm, knowledge... able, and takes time with patients. She explains things thoroughly and caringly. Her office stays on top of modern technology and insurance changes. Office is easy to communicate with, schedule, and access.

I had a great Experience with Dr. Trinidad. At previous places, I felt like I was being rushed and t... he workers just did not care about my questions and concerns. I got this placed recommended to me and the experience was great. I got my questions answered and did not feel weird asking my concerns related to my contacts and future eye procedures that I might qualify for, 100% recommended.

Excellent Experience with Dr. Trinidad! I visited Dr. Trinidad for an issue I was experiencing with... my eye, and I couldn't be happier with the level of care I received. Dr. Trinidad was exceptional in every aspect of my visit. He patiently listened to all my concerns and questions, and his thorough explanations immediately put me at ease. What impressed me the most was his willingness to walk me through the issues I was facing with my eye, ensuring I understood everything clearly. Not only did he address my current problem, but he also took the time to discuss preventative measures, which I found incredibly valuable. Overall, my experience with Dr. Trinidad was excellent. His professionalism, expertise, and genuine concern for his patients' well-being truly set him apart. I highly recommend Dr. Trinidad to anyone in need of exceptional eye care. Thank you, Dr. Trinidad, for your outstanding service!

Dr. Lamei is the kindest, most caring Dr and person ever. I greatly appreciated her helping me with ... an eye emergency, her reassurance was wonderful. The staff were great and very helpful as well. Very knowledgeable and experienced. Thank you!💖

Great service. Great knowledge and care. I’ve been given multiple options to deal with my eye care... and free samples of contacts. Always felt comfortable working with their team

The visit was as good as an eye exam could be. The optometrist, Dr. Parisa Lamei was great in that s... he took a lot of time explaining what she was seeing in her exam of my eyes and symptoms. She even took time to sit with me after imaging and describe in detail what the images where telling her about my vision.

Wonderful doctors and support staff. They are so helpful and kind. I recommend everyone to go here!

EyeTech on Slaughter has really helpful front desk staff, and the techs and the doctors are top notc... h, informative, efficient, and friendly. I consider their business a lucky find, as they take good care of my family's eye health needs. Highly recommend!

As someone who's worked for an optometry office before, I can definitely say that Eye Tech is a very... well run and organized eye doctor office. All staff are well trained and professional. Dr. L is gentle, perceptive, concise and communicates very clearly. She's no frills and is not like a used car salesperson who is constantly trying to upsell you or schmooze you. All equipment is up to date (no unpleasant air blowing eye pressure measuring device and a very user friendly optomap retinal imaging). I was seen on time without much of a wait and the appointment was quick and painless. My contacts came in 2 business days and the office staff were extremely knowledgeable about rebates. Prices were typical/fair and are what one should expect to pay for a quality eye exam. Also, I noticed that they use Essilor brand lenses for your glasses, which is one of the best, most high quality, long lasting lenses that you can get. (Not all opticals carry this lens brand and go for cheaper brands that have coatings that wear away after a couple years or scratch easily.) If you're going to complain about prices, then go to Walmart or Costco for your exam and glasses. There is a reason why things are priced a certain way, and you get what you pay for.

Marvelous Optometrist office. I took my grandson here a few months ago, he wanted to try contact le... nses. After a quick check, they let me know that the weakest lenses would be too strong for his eyes. Nor did they charge me for the visit. I went this week for my own annual check up. They gave me a very thorough, excellent exam. The best part was that they have a machine that takes a picture of my retina. It cost $39 extra but was worth it because I didn't have to get my eyes dilated, which I hate (and which leaves me not able to do anything for a couple of hours). I had a slight change in my contact lens prescription. I'm going to wear the sample pair they gave me for a few days to make sure I'm happy, then I can order some lenses. They took their time with me, explaining everything as we went along. I'm very pleased and will be using Eye Tech from now on.

Best Optometrist Office ever! I moved out of Austin but I make the trip to Eye Tech because they are... so awesome and give great care. I made the mistake of going to a department store eye doc in my small town for the convenience and I am still regretting it a year later. High tech equipment, expertise, and they take the time to make sure you get all the rebates off your contacts for each sample you try. Can't recommend them enough!

Excellent customer service from their friendly front-desk staff

Great staff and very comfortable experience getting my eyes checked up. Glad it’s so close and con... venient !!!

Great staff- contacts came in quick- no hassle with the appointment. Thanks!

The staff here is great. I've been going here pretty much as long as they've been in business. Dr La... mei and her staff seem to care about each and every person who comes in

My whole family has been seeing Dr. Lamei for over 5 years, and have been very happy with the servic... e. She's been great with my son who started seeing her at first with me. She's always been patient with him on dilation drops, which he hated (they now have a machine making the drops unnecessary, to his excitement). A few years ago, he wanted to try contact lenses, and he tech worked with him for 20 minutes on trying some out. Although he chose to stick with glasses for now, it's great knowing that they'll work with him any time. I've only had 1 unsatisfactory experience with her office, and she was very apologetic for it. No one's perfect, but Dr. Lamei, Ruby and the staff are as close as I've found with an eye doctor.
