What Are Prescription Sunglasses?

Prescription sunglasses are the same as regular sunglasses except that they come with your corrective prescription built into the lens.

Benefits of Prescription Sunglasses

Well, just like everyone else, people who wear prescription eyeglasses need to protect their eyes from harmful UV rays; the added challenge is that they need a solution that provides clear eyesight on bright and sunny days so regular sunglasses fall short.

The benefits to prescription sunglasses are that they allow you to see just as clearly as your prescription glasses and in addition to UV protection, you can enjoy a sunny day in Vancouver, squint-free.

What Sunglasses Can Have Prescription Lenses?

Any pair of sunglasses you find at Della Optique will have the ability to accommodate prescription lenses. Prescription sunglasses are available for almost all vision prescriptions, including those that call for bifocals or progressive lenses.

A frame specialist will help you select the perfect pair of glasses. They will take your measurements to optimize your visual quality and ensure a custom fit. 

These measurements, along with your prescription details, are sent to the designer’s labs for the final product to be manufactured and shipped back to Della Optique. If you do not have your updated prescription information, we are able to perform an in-house eye exam service for you.

Once the eyewear arrives with the proper prescription requirements and passes our final inspection, every Della customer will be fitted one last time before heading out into the sunshine. 

Depending on the type of prescription eyewear selected, it can take between 2-4 weeks for your prescription sunglasses to be ready.

Can I Add Prescription to My Sunglasses?

Unfortunately, we are unable to add a prescription to your existing sunglasses. For a prescription to be added to sunglass frames, entirely new lenses need to be manufactured so choosing a new pair from our wide selection is the best and easiest approach. 

How to Care for Your Prescription Sunglasses

To increase the longevity of your prescription sunglasses, we recommend keeping them in their case when they are not being worn on your face. Avoid hanging them from your collar or wearing them on your head as they may fall easier from these positions — risking permanent damage.

When cleaning your prescription sunglasses, use warm water, gentle soap, and a microfiber cloth. If you need to clean them on-the-go, use disposable cleaning wipes that are designed for glasses.

Warranties will vary depending on frame and lens manufacturer.

How Much Are Prescription Sunglasses in Vancouver?

Where your eyesight is concerned, we don’t recommend cutting costs. It is important to choose a quality pair of prescription sunglasses made from durable materials.

At Della Optique, the cost of prescription sunglasses starts at $199.

Our prices depend on your vision prescription as well as the frames that you choose.

When considering where to purchase your prescription sunglasses, make sure you choose a trustworthy company that has good customer reviews and years of patient experience.
