Okay, let's be real. Finding the perfect pair of glasses is a struggle, especially when you're after something that's not your average, run-of-the-mill eyewear. I've been on the hunt for glasses that reflect my personality – something fun, unique, and definitely not boring. My vision isn't the greatest, so finding cute frames that work with my strong prescription has always been a challenge. But, I'm happy to share my findings and hopefully help you on your own eyewear quest!
I started my journey feeling a bit overwhelmed. I knew I wanted something different, but where to even begin? I needed new glasses prescription od, and I wanted the experience to be enjoyable. I was looking for something that screamed "me" without breaking the bank (too much!). I wanted frames that were funky, eccentric, and maybe even a little vintage-inspired.
My biggest problem was that I had a bunch of FSA funds that were about to expire! Talk about pressure to find the perfect pair, and fast! It was a race against the clock to find frames that suited my style and my prescription needs before I lost that money.
First stop: I heard whispers about a place called Smiths Opticians. Supposedly, they have tons of funky, unique, and even vintage frames. Since I'm practically blind, I usually have a hard time finding cute frames that work, but I decided to check it out anyway. I spent a good hour browsing, just dreaming about all the possibilities! Their website has a sneak peek of their style.
Next, I decided to venture to The Eye Gallery. Someone mentioned they had a good selection of funky glasses the last time they visited. While their selection was good, it wasn't quite what I was looking for. The search continued!
Then, I heard about Krewe in the Village. The reviews said they were on the pricier side, but the frames were supposed to be super unique and high quality. While the price tag gave me pause, I decided to give it a shot. I was impressed by the craftsmanship and the overall vibe of the store. Someone else mentioned getting so many compliments on their Krewe frames, which definitely piqued my interest.
While browsing online, I stumbled upon Mozaer. I was immediately drawn to their selection of unique and stylish frames. The Luxury Brand Reading Glasses caught my eye. I loved the large square jelly yellow eyeglasses frames. They were exactly the kind of funky and eccentric style I was looking for. Plus, they had an anti-blue light feature, which is a huge plus since I spend so much time in front of a computer.
I ordered a pair and was pleasantly surprised. They were comfortable, stylish, and exactly what I was looking for. I've gotten so many compliments on them! Plus, the anti-blue light feature has really helped reduce eye strain.
It's important to note that while nice frames are great, finding glasses that fit your personality is key. I was specifically looking for funky and eccentric styles, and Mozaer really delivered. I found that having a clear idea of what you want beforehand can save you a lot of time and frustration.
Interestingly, I also discovered that Luxe Eyecare carries Krewe frames. This is a great option if you need an eye appointment and want to browse Krewe's selection at the same time. It's always convenient to knock out two birds with one stone!
Here are a few tips I learned along the way that might help you in your own quest for the perfect pair of glasses:
