Contrary to popular belief, the actual tint (color) of the lens is not as important as the material or coating, which are responsible for UV blocking. It is critical that all UV-A and UV-B rays are blocked: look for your lens to have CSA or ANSI approval to indicate that it provides full UV protection. Wrap-around frame styles are beneficial in preventing UV from reaching the eye around the frame, and when accompanied by a brimmed hat, can provide excellent protection and comfort.

Best optometry appointment I’ve ever had. The eye exam took no time at all and I got a year supply of contacts at a really great price! Would recommend this place if you’re looking for a new optometrist in London.

The practice is on my way home from work and was recommended to me by a friend. Hours are great! My appointment was on time and the staff was really helpful with billing and picking out new frames. I would recommend them to anyone looking for an optometrist!
