Over the years, the internet has changed the way we do just about everything, especially shopping. Online shopping is awesome, so awesome it can be addictive. But not every purchase is better off made online, especially designer eyewear. Below are 4 reasons why you should choose your local opticians, like Eye Elegance, over the big online stores…
Personalized Service is Key
While it is possible to get great customer service from online companies, there is no substitute for getting true one-on-one service. When you walk into one of our boutiques, you will be greeted by an expert optician who will help you find exclusive and unique designer eyewear that suit your personality, look great, are sized correctly and comfortably. No need to scroll through countless pages to find your new style, just tell us what you are into, and we’ll find what you are looking for. You can’t beat personalized service like that!
Forget the Waiting Game
Shopping online is all about convenience, but waiting to send and receive shipments is anything but convenient. Online stores will send you multiple frames to try on, but there is no guarantee you will like the options you picked out or that they are going to fit. It might take multiple shipments to find the glasses that work for you.
We think there is no substitute for shopping in person. In just one visit you can try on all the frames you want for a true fitting experience. You’ll feel confident in your decision without having to send packages back and forth for weeks.
Not All Collections Are Created Equal
Online eyeglass stores have extensive selections of brands, some created or cheaply knocked off, just for the online market. With all those options, how will you find something that is distinct? That’s where the Eye Elegance collection comes in. We specialize in handmade, independent eyewear from around the world. We bring you an incredible selection of unique, beautiful and truly one-of-a-kind spectacles and sunglasses, most of which are not available online. Each individual frame has been hand selected for it’s exceptional design, craftsmanship and materials. Our collection is simply unmatched.
The Proper Fit
Just as your style is unique, so is your face. Almost every new pair of glasses needs a custom lens shaping or frame modification to fit you perfectly. Online stores simply cannot compete with these types of custom fittings.
When it comes to lenses, a staggering 44.8% of vision prescriptions filled online are either incorrect or don’t meet important safety standards. We fill most prescriptions within 2-4 business days and you’ll be able to try them on in store to ensure accuracy, no eye strain, no headaches and no double vision. A new pair of lenses and frames is a big investment, wouldn’t you want to make sure the fit is comfortable?
