Come See Our Eyeglasses in Copperas Cove!
Shopping online is common nowadays, and there are many online sites to purchase eyeglasses. However, is it really a smart idea to buy your frames online? While it may be convenient to shop in your pajamas, it may not be best for your vision and eye health!
To help you understand the advantages and importance of buying eyeglasses locally in Copperas Cove, we’ve outlined the basic pros and cons of online shopping for eyewear:
Cons of Purchasing Eyeglasses from a Website
- You can’t ask a friend or optician for a first-hand opinion of how you look
- Impersonal shopping experience, with no caring optician or customer service that listens to your visual and lifestyle needs
- No eye doctor will measure your pupillary distance or bridge span precisely to ensure an optimal fit; with online shopping, you’re on your own
- Many optical stores have special deals with the eyeglass manufacturers. When you buy eyeglasses in our Copperas Cove store, we offer savings and rebates that are only available locally.
