How often should you have your glasses replaced?

There really is no hard rule as to when prescription eyeglasses should be replaced. The changes in your vision can differ depending on the specific issues you are facing, and not everyone needs a stronger pair of glasses at consistent intervals. Nevertheless, most eye doctors do say that you should have your eyeglasses updated about every one to three years.

What are the different lens coatings with eyeglasses?

Lens treatments can enhance the performance of your eyeglasses in different scenarios. The most common include anti-scratch coatings, antifog coatings, and anti-glare coatings. However, some coatings are meant to block UV light, blue light, and offer extra protection from the sun.
