Protect Your Eyes & Look Your Best

How Do I Choose the Right Sunglasses?

To select your perfect sunglasses, consider the following:

  • Frames

    You want your sunglasses to last, so choose durable, high-quality frames. Whether you choose plastic, acetate, aluminum, stainless steel or even wooden frames, make sure that the frames fit well, look good, and are comfortable to wear.

  • Lenses

    Lenses correct your vision, protect your eyes and enhance your style. Always choose lenses that screen out 100% of UV rays. You can also choose special features like anti-glare, polarized shades or tints. To prevent damage, select durable lenses.

  • Shape

    Sunglass shapes not only express your unique style; they provide a protective barrier against the elements. Wrap-around sunglasses shield your eyes from wind and flying debris. The right frames also complement your face and help you bring your best features forward.

  • Prescription

    Once you’ve undergone an eye exam, you can purchase sunglasses with the same prescription as your regular glasses. Wearing prescription sunglasses allows you to enjoy the outdoors while protecting your eyes from harmful UV rays.

A hidden gem of a Dr office. Professional and polite. Staff was courteous and did everything possibl... e to save me as much money. Usually I get bombarded with extra add ons and charges. Prices are reasonable and worked with my insurance. Doctor listened to what I said and now I can see without a headache. Will be making this my standard office from now on for glasses and contacts.

Jackie provided exceptional customer service to assure that my eye emergency would be addressed and ... was able to schedule my appointment in a timely manner. The gentleman who checked me in provided customer service that is not provided by other healthcare facilities too often. From start to finish during my contact with this eye care office I am very pleased with my experience and I look forward to continuing my eye health care here.

I had an absolutely wonderful experience at Memorial Eye in Westchase. They are so kind, knowledgeab... le, thorough, and professional - when it comes to both eye health and eyeglass selection. I came in for my *first* pair of progressive lenses, carrying with me the apprehension and concern that comes with it. But let me tell you, my experience, and my new progressive lenses and frames, are an absolute DELIGHT. It was actually a fun and affirming experience. Great job to Dr Chuang and my optician.

It is the store for people who want to get nice looking glasses, There are plenty good looking bra... nd frames at a fair price at this store. Many styes of designs are at wide bright show rooms and plus the staffs are nice. My wife and I just picked up two pairs today which were ordered two weeks ago: Gucci and Versace. When I want to recogniz this store, this tean, I want particularily to recognize Mr. Hung Ngyuen who did so nice in this team. May I tell you a short story why I said that? On Saturday Dec 17, My wife and I were both shopping our glasses at its store. He helped us to choose and test a lof of of frames. It really took long time on and off. He was so patiet and was very knowledgble to tell us the difference of styles, qualities, materials of varies brands. My wife are always very picky. However, his service made her very satisied and selected one. It was done at 2:40 pm. Regretfully, I had another appointment in different eye store at that time. I told Hung that I had to leave and maybe I would come back if I did not get a good one there and maybe not if I get one there. We know the store will be closed at 3 pm on Saturday. Then if I leave there is no way I could come back before the store is closed. I estimated it might be aound 5 pm if I indeed come back. Surprisingly, Hung told us that he would wait in the store until we come back. We did not think he was serious. When we were on the way back we are kind of wondered if he 'd be waiting for us. Yes, he was there when we come at 4:15 pm. He was still waiting for us after the office closed. We asked why you did not leave for Christmas shopping and instead wait for us. He said that he would rather sacrifice his own time if he can add more customers for the company. That is his work ethic which impressed us. I belive it is Memorial Eye Center's ethic too. A good store must have good service person, vice versa. I bought another one for myself immeidately. In addition, Hung speaks Vietnamese as well as English. It was helpful for my wife to understand and trust him. The Store location is close to the Asian Town in Beltway 8 and Bellaire. My wife want to bring more her Vietnamese Speaking friends to the store. We also encorage you visit the store and look for Hung. Happy New Year. Jensen and Judy

Sunglasses FAQs

What are the benefits of photochromic sunglasses?

Photochromic lenses (with or without prescription) adjust to brightness. They darken as you step outside on a sunny day and get lighter when you go indoors. This means that you can wear the same glasses everywhere without having to switch from regular glasses to sunglasses.

Are sunglass lens coatings worth it?

While sunglasses provide plenty of protection for your eyes, lens coatings add even more benefits. You can choose anti-reflective coatings to cut down on glare and make driving safer. Tinted sunglasses can help you see colors and detail more distinctly. Scratch-resistant coatings help prevent damage so you can enjoy your shades for longer.

Is it OK to wear sunglasses with contacts?

Unless your contact lenses provide 100% UV protection — most don’t — always remember to don your sunglasses before heading outdoors. Sunglasses with 100% UV protection screen out harmful rays and winds that tend to dry out your eyes more quickly. This is good news for contact lens wearers who run the risk of developing dry eye symptoms.

How to tell if sunglasses have UV protection?

To make sure that your sunglasses block 100% of UVA and UVB rays, make sure to purchase your shades from a licensed optometrist.
