Choose The Best Optical Store Bensonhurst Brooklyn Has To Offer For Buying Children's Glasses

By Marci Glover


When it comes to buying glasses for one's child it's important to find a shop that not only has a great selection of little frames and lenses, but also a wonderful, caring staff who are dedicated to ensuring a perfect fit and positive experience for the child. By choosing the best kid-friendly optical store Bensonhurst Brooklyn customers can expect to get the best assistance and advice possible as far as purchasing and maintaining their children's eye-wear is concerned.

Most optometrists will be able to let parents know which shops cater to children's optical needs. If an optician has performed the eye exam, he or she may also sell frames and lenses and will have a suitable pair for the child, but if not, parents can simply take the child's prescription elsewhere.

Other parents who have a child with glasses can be a good source of information too, as they can likely recommend a place they have had a good experience with. Hearing from a satisfied customer that a certain store is superior in its service, choice of frames, and such can build one's confidence in the shop's ability to meet his or her expectations.

After establishing a list of shops one is considering, it's a good idea to call them to find out more details, before deciding to stop by in person. Parents will want to ask them questions regarding their choice of products, level of expertise, and customer service policies.

Children are a minority group of eye-wear consumers, so the selection of frames in their size is usually smaller, however some stores stock a larger selection of kid's frames than others, so it's best to ask. The parent needs to let them know how old the child is, and he or she should also find out if they will provide lenses, fitting, and adjustments for frames purchased elsewhere if necessary.

If the shop has opticians who are experienced working with children, this is another plus since it usually requires more patience working with restless young customers than adults. Asking them if there is a specific optician who specializes in fitting children, and if there is, which days and times is this person works is recommended.

Broken and scratched glasses happen more often with children's eye-wear since they are naturally more reckless, so it makes sense to also inquire about warranties the shop may provide. Asking about what is and is not covered under warranty is important to know, although it may not be sensible to take a warranty on children's glasses for more than a year because they are bound to outgrow their frames or require a new prescription before then.

In most cases the purchase of glasses is not covered by health insurance, although some supplementary plans may offer at least some coverage, so it's important to ask the optical store if they accept such a policy if applicable, and if so, are there any limitations on choice of frames etc. Some shops will also provide their customers with a discount if they purchase an extra pair of glasses, which can be very handy in the event that one pair needs to get repaired.
