Glasses

Looking for a new pair of prescription glasses? At Vision Direct we have found the most common reason is that you’ve lost your current pair and need a replacement. This is why it can be a great idea to have a few pairs of glasses on-hand in case you find yourself in a tight situation. Luckily, at Vision Direct we have a wide variety of prescription glasses available at affordable prices to make this possible!

 

Glasses should be an extension of your style; and like everything you wear it should have purpose. Sure, glasses are an aid for poor eyesight, but this doesn’t mean that they need to be clunky and unstylish. Your glasses should appeal to you and make you feel good about wearing them.

 

You can find a pair of glasses to suit any person, and what makes yours unique is they fit you perfectly and are specifically adjusted to help your vision. Just like many sunglasses brands you can find high end designer glasses, or you can buy something that is more functional than stylish. The option is entirely up to your own personal sense of style.

 

Prescription glasses are something that people need to wear most of the time, so it’s important that they’re comfortable. In general, they need to be lightweight and suitable for your face. By using our Virtual Try-On, you can see how the glasses will fit on your face. All you need is a short video (usually about 5 seconds will do it) and then you can use it to virtually place glasses on your face and see how they look. You can even take a snapshot and send it to your friends and family for their advice!

 

With highly popular brands available such as, Ray-Ban, Oakley, Calvin Klein, Persol, Versace, and Tommy Hilfiger and many others, it can be easy to find a brand that fits your budget and your lifestyle. When you're buying prescription glasses many people like to buy a new pair of sunglasses at the same time. By bundling your glasses in together you can get your regular glasses and your sunglasses set to your prescription at the same time, which can be a huge time saving device.

 

As Vision Direct is a recognised online optical provider by Medibank and Bupa, you can get a health rebate for prescription glasses, sunglasses and contact lenses. When rebates such as these are offered it can be a good idea to make use of them, why not go for that pair of glasses you’ve been eyeing off for a while now? There’s no time like the present!


Glasses - Frequently Asked Questions

Eye protection during sport is very important, especially if you are playing anything where small objects are constantly flying at your face, like squash, tennis or cricket. If you need prescription glasses, then some of these sports can be difficult to play as wearing glasses can be a bigger hazard than not wearing glasses! Although if you're not wearing glasses, there goes your chances of hitting the ball. It used to be that you’d need to wear huge ‘science lab’ style goggles over your glasses, but now you can get suitable eyewear for sport.

 

If you’re a swimmer you can get waterproof swimming goggles and have your prescription lenses so you can see clearly underwater. They can give you a whole new experience, especially if you swim in the ocean, you never know what you might see!

 

Prescription goggles can be a life saver for running. No longer will you need to put up with sweaty glasses slipping off your face, or loose-fitting glasses bouncing as you run along the trail.

The frames of your prescription glasses are key to what style may suit. You can choose from the frame materials first as many people have a preference between a metal and a plastic finish as these two are the most common materials. However, if you’re feeling adventurous you can look at wooden frames, or titanium, or acetate.

 

Next have a look at your frame shape, these vary greatly, and you can use our Virtual Try-On to suggest what style frames may best suit your face shape. Or you can totally ignore that and pick a shape that you like! The most popular frame shapes are pilot, or aviator, and Wayfarer, with round, cat eye and square coming next.

 

Finally, you’ll need to choose a colour. You can choose a colour that highlights the colour in your eyes, or you can simply pick a colour that you like. If you're buying a few pairs, the colour you choose should ideally be different so you can match them with different outfits. If you aren’t fond of the wilder colours, we’d suggest getting a basic black, and either lighter grey or a deep brown. But if you like a splash of colour then the sky is your limit!

Prescription glasses can cost as little as $25 and as much as over $2000. It all depends on the brand and the style; some brands are very high-end and you’re paying for a quality finish.

 

Generally, it all comes down to your budget, and how often you break or lose them. If you tend to lose your glasses often, then you probably don't want to spend a lot of money. But if you’re into the finer things in life, getting a high value pair might be an excellent choice.

 

We have a huge selection of glasses available to suit all members of your family including, kid’s glasses, men’s glasses and women’s glasses. With our selection you can find something for everyone.
