It’s confusing. Every optical store claims they specialize in children’s eyewear. What does that mean? Most of the time it simply means they carry a few dozen children’s frames. At Eyeglass House we have been fitting children’s eyeglasses since we started out in 1990.

For over 20 years we have been working closely with leading pediatric ophthalmologists from Long Island, Manhattan, and Westchester. Most eyeglass stores will think your child is simply nearsighted or farsighted, we know better. We will look at your child’s prescription and interrupt their visual needs, and then custom fit them with the proper size frames from our selection of over 350 kid’s frames. And don’t worry about how your child will look, our opticians will make sure to have the latest and coolest styles for your child to wear.

All of our New York State licensed opticians are parents, so we understand your anxiety about your child having to wear eyeglasses. After dispensing your child’s glasses we will help you with proven techniques to get your child to wear their glasses.

While the appearance of your child in their new frames is very important to you, lenses for those frames are important to us. Lenses will always be made from impact resistant polycarbonate or Trivex. They will always be made the thinnest they can so magnification and weight will be reduced to a minimum. Anti-reflective coatings, scratch resistance coatings, and transitions are all available and usually recommended.
