It’s hard to believe, but September is here, and with it plenty of back-to-school shopping. Whether you’re a college student in search of a new pair of specs, a teacher heading back to the blackboard, or a parent seeking new eyewear for the kids, we have some eyewear shopping tips to help you score an A+ on your next pair of glasses!

Shopping for kids? Ask a few questions
If you’re shopping for a younger student, consider a few things while you’re shopping, such as:
- Eye exam: Start with an eye exam and get an accurate prescription. Make sure your child’s eyes are healthy and you’re not wasting money on an outdated prescription, then shop for frames.
- Frame material: Kids have different needs in terms of frame strength and flexibility, as well as weight and cost.
- Sports/activities: Don’t forget about prescription sport and/or sunglasses! If your child is active in sports, he or she will also need protection for the court or field.
- Warranties: Ask about warranties on frames and lenses. Torn between two pairs? Ask how the warranties compare!
