THIS is the reason I LOVE what I do! 13 year old patient had the lenses in her eyes removed due to medical condition. Prescription is +15.50 (think back to the glasses people had after cataract surgery, before lens implants were invented). I work with an amazing lab and they were able to create a beautiful pair of glasses with significantly thinner lenses than her last pair (made elsewhere)!

I carry the largest selection of Tomato glasses north of Boston (maybe even south!)! These are THE MOST PRACTICAL eyeglasses made for infants, toddlers, young children --- even adults! Yes, adults --- I have several patients with severe osteoporosis and many with extremely strong prescriptions that need the "hold" of the soft comfort cable tips!
Tomato Glasses are specialized, award-winning frames for babies, toddlers, and children designed for maximum comfort, safety, and adjustability. Made from lightweight (6–9g), non-toxic, and flexible material (TR90), they feature adjustable nose pads, temple lengths, and included head straps to prevent slipping, making them ideal for high-power prescriptions and active kids.
Key Features and Benefits

Highly Adjustable: Nose pads can be adjusted to three different heights to fit developing noses, and temple lengths can be tailored, say Tomato Glasses.
Non-Slip & Secure: Designed to stay in place with a specialized, flexible ear tip and a standard strap, making them suitable for active children.
Lightweight & Durable: Weighing only 6 to 9 grams, these frames are made from safe, non-toxic, and durable materials.
Comfortable Fit: The temple tips are designed to fit the curve of the ear without causing pressure points or pain.

So from us at VFC and our communities we thank you!!

PETITE EYEGLASSES! With a large client base that requires smaller sizes, I've brought in the Nifties eyeglass collection! Having a small face can make it hard to find frames that fit comfortably. That’s where NIFTIES eyewear comes in. Say goodbye to shopping for frames in the kids’ section and explore a large collection of high-quality frames designed for adults with fine facial features.

Feeling great!!! As an aviator, visual acuity cannot be sacrificed. Now a 4 Bar Captain, this pilot has entrusted his eyewear needs to me since 1994. As to his sunglasses, this color provided him with the ideal definition needed such that "WE" saved 143 lives descending into the Beijing Airport during a monsoon.

No better feeling than a 4 Bar Captain (pilot) entrusting me with his eyewear needs! (...actually, since 1994!) And the sunglasses: he swears by this color as it gives him the definition he needs to fly, espeically during less than desirable conditions. Thanks for the pic B.C. :)
