Glasses and Sunglasses
Glasses can sometimes be a confusing purchase with a plethora of options for optical stores, frame styles, lens options, and conflicting marketing online.
Glasses and Sunglasses
At Carina Eye Care, I help you with the decision-making process by providing you with my honest opinion on what is actually necessary to avoid unnecessary spending, yet provide practical solutions.
Being an independent optometry practice means that I have no particular ties to any supplier, and therefore am able to access almost any product on the market. I also am a glasses and contact lens wearer myself, so I understand what it's like to wear glasses.
My personal priorities for glasses selection are:
- Comfort of the frame (fits well)
- Style (suits my personality)
- Durability (avoid fragile styles and materials)
- Weight of lenses (suitable to the prescription)
- Practicality (photochromatic/polarised etc.)
- Pricing (reasonable)

- Both Asian-fit and Western-fit spectacle & sunglass frames in lightweight nylon, Italian acetate, titanium, stainless steel, and other metals
