Frames and Boutique Wear
When you buy glasses, you’re not just correcting your vision; you’re deciding on style. Select frames that match your personal “look” and return unparalleled results. The Optical has an extensive selection of eyewear, including the latest styles in designer sunglasses brands and prescription eyeglasses, as well as the widest variety of lenses in the Baltimore region, making the eyewear we provide perfect for all occasions.
For higher prescriptions, we offer thin, light lenses to ensure comfort and clear vision, as well as some of the finest progressive (no-line bifocal) lenses. Also available are our premium anti-reflective coatings, which deliver crisp vision and eliminate reflections.
Protects Your Child’s Vision Today and Tomorrow
Correcting vision alone won’t stop myopia (nearsightedness) from getting worse. As myopia progresses, it can increase future eye health risks. That’s why early, proactive management is so important.
Stellest® lenses, Essilor®’s most advanced option for myopia control, are clinically proven to slow progression by an average of 67% compared to single-vision lenses when worn 12 hours a day.
Are Stellest® lenses right for your child?
Myopia progresses faster when it starts young. Stellest® lenses both correct vision now and help control how your child’s nearsightedness develops over time—supporting clearer, healthier vision for the future.
Frames
Eyeglasses help to correct refractive errors such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and/or astigmatism. A wide variety of lenses is available to meet the individual needs of each patient.
- Single Vision Lenses: Single vision lenses have only one viewing area through the lens. They are used to correct far distance, near distance or reading.
- Multi-focal Lenses: The term “multi-focal lenses” refers to any glass lens or contact lens that contains more than one strength. These are especially helpful for people with presbyopia due to their ability to correct near and far vision simultaneously.
- Bifocal Lenses: Bifocal lenses feature two distinct viewing areas, allowing for correction of both near and far vision within a single lens.
- Progressive Lenses: Progressive lenses, or “no-line bifocals”, provide vision correction for multiple ranges – close objects, far objects, and intermediately ranged objects. Unlike traditional bifocals, however, progressive lenses are made so that the different strengths within the lens appear smooth and gradual, instead of the noticeable “lines” in traditional bifocal glasses.

Lenses
Contact lenses are an alternative to glasses for correcting refractive errors. A contact lens is a clear, thin disc that fits perfectly over the front of the eye, also known as the cornea. There are numerous kinds of contact lenses available to fit almost any patient’s needs.
- Colored Contacts: There are four kinds of colored contact lenses. Visibility tints do not change the color of the iris and are only for helping the contact lens to be seen during insertion and removal. Enhancement tints further define, but do not change entirely, the color of your eyes. Color tints are mostly opaque and can entirely change the color of the eye. And light-filtering tints, usually made for sports purposes, help the wearer more easily identify objects of a particular color.
- Multi-focal Contacts: Like multi-focal eyeglasses, multi-focal contacts contain different strengths on the same contact lens, providing the wearer improved near and far visions. The wearer’s eye receives multiple visual signals from the different strengths on the contact lens, but learns to effectively ignore any but the most useful image depending on the situation.

Care of Contact Lenses
To help maintain the healthiness of your eyes and superior vision, it is important that you carefully follow the instructions of properly caring for your contact lenses.
- Always wash your hands with soap before handling your contact lenses.
- Before inserting your contact lens into your eye, use a contact cleansing solution to cleanse thoroughly.
- Always insert contacts prior to applying any cosmetics.
- After inserting your contacts into your eyes, empty your contact case and rinse thoroughly with warm water, and allow it to air dry.
- Never wear your contacts overnight, as it may lead to an infection in the cornea.
