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.

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.

I’m in love with this place! I have had some terrible experiences elsewhere and they have went abo... ve and beyond making my experience awesome. The minute I walked in they offer you coffee or water and the people are just so friendly it’s a treat to be able to be treated like a human being instead of just worrying how much you are going to spend! The exam was awesome though and definitely done right. The woman who helped me pick out glasses was the best she even introduced me to the owner and he was so down to earth. This business hands down is number one!

My family has used Engle Eyewear for years, and they provide excellent and consistent customer servi... ce. Renee is a Stylist with a capital "S" and Tom delivers perfect lens. And they have trained their staff to provide the same great service. Recently, I debated about computer glasses, and they have become a life-changer for me . And the addition of Joseph Lombardi, OD is a also great asset.

From the moment I walked through the door at Engle Eyewear, I was treated like royalty. Every intera... ction—from the warm welcome to the final fitting—was handled with the utmost professionalism and care. The staff are not only incredibly knowledgeable, but also genuinely kind and attentive. They took the time to understand my needs, offered expert advice, and made the entire experience feel effortless. If you’re looking for top-notch service and a truly personalized eyewear experience, this is the place to go. Highly recommend!

Had the most amazing experience at Engle Eyewear! My eye exam was easy and well explained to me each... step. The team was also extremely helpful in helping me find the perfect pair of glasses. It was my first time getting glasses and they made the process so easy and provided everything I need! They are so welcoming and helpful (and have the cutest furry assistant!) Highly recommend!

I got my first pair of Engle Eyewear glasses about 3 years ago and I have gotten so many compliments... from the 2 years I wore that first pair of Engle glasses. I just got a second pair recently and the compliments are nonstop! Renee is absolutely amazing at what she does and she always ends up finding me the most perfect pair of glasses that would look best on me, fit my personality as well as my face! The staff is so amazing, they are all so kind and so supportive of all their customers! I couldn’t say such great things about this place if 5 stars isn’t enough!

I recently had an eye exam and purchased two amazing frames! I am EXTREMELY satisfied and can't say... enough about the professionalism and expertise Dr. Lombardi, Tom, Renee, Stephanie and the entire team displayed. A special thank to Stephanie and Renee---you both helped me narrow down my choices (which was very difficult) so my decision was perfect for my facial shape and fits well with my lifestyle. Your personal touch is unmatched! Thanks again!
