Do you shop for everything online? Come on, you can admit it… we do too. Online shopping is awesome, but not for everything – especially glasses. Shopping online for your next pair might seem like the obvious move, but your eyes deserve more than a cheap online purchase.
Here are a few reasons why you should choose your local optometrist, such as Metro Eye, over online stores:
Nothing Beats Personalized Service
Sure you can get exceptional customer service from online stores, but there is really no substitute for true one-on-one service. Our optical stylists and technicians take pride in being up on the latest fashion and technology trends in eyewear. There’s no need to scroll through countless online pages, hoping to come across the right fit. Just tell us what you’re into and we’ll find the perfect eyewear to match both your style and vision needs.
Instant Gratification
Shopping online is all about convenience, but waiting to send and receive shipments is anything but convenient. There is no guarantee the frames that show up at your door will fit properly. It could take multiple shipments (not to mention all the time in between) to actually find the right frames for you.
In just one visit to your local optical shop, you can try on all the frames in the collection for a true fitting experience. Even the “virtual” fitting gimmicks can’t measure up to the real thing.
Not all Collections are Created Equal
Online optical stores have massive selections of brands, some of which are cheaply created just for the online market. With all the options and countless online brands, how will you be able to find something distinctive?
Our optometrists and optical stylists meticulously curate the Metro Eye frames collection to provide an incredible selection of innovative, high-quality, and truly one-of-a-kind frames – most of which you can’t find online.
The True Fitting Experience
Your style and lifestyle are unique, and so is your face. It’s rare to find frames that instantly fit a customer without any frame or lens modifications. Online stores simply cannot compete with custom frame and lens 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. When you glasses are ready, you’ll be able to try them on in store to ensure accuracy for no eyestrain, 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?
