Children’s eyewear is more than just a fashion accessory—it’s an essential part of their vision care. Properly fitted glasses ensure clear vision and contribute to normal, healthy eye growth and development. Our vision care experts understand how important it is to get the right fit and style for your child. We offer a wide selection of kids’ frames designed to suit active lifestyles while keeping your child safe and comfortable.
When choosing kids’ eyeglasses, there are several key features to consider.
Durability
Kids can be rough on their glasses, so it’s important to choose frames made from materials that can withstand daily wear and tear. We carry a selection of flexible, strong frames that are perfect for active children.
Comfort
Lightweight materials and adjustable nose pads enable a comfortable wearing experience all day long. Our optical associates will make sure the fit is just right.
Style
From bold colors to fun patterns, our kids' frames come in a variety of styles that allow your child to express their personality. We stock popular brands that make eyewear fun and fashionable for children.
Lens Options
Depending on your child’s needs, the lenses will have anti-glare, blue light filters, and scratch-resistant coatings. This helps protect your child’s eyes, especially if they spend time on digital devices.
We pride ourselves on being one of the top destinations for kids’ eyeglasses in Calgary. With locations in Cochrane and Crowfoot, our expert optometrists and friendly staff are here to guide you through the entire process—from eye exams to frame selection.
We offer a personalized experience, focusing on your child’s preferences for style and colour. Our young patients must participate in the selection process, and our expert consultants make it fun and easy to find frames they will love to wear. Plus, we have convenient
online booking for eye exams, making it easy to schedule your visit.
Choosing the right frame size can be challenging for smaller faces, but our consultants are up to the task. We see hundreds of children every year for eye care, and our experienced personnel take the guesswork out of frame sizing. Here’s what we focus on:
Face Width
Frames that are too narrow or too wide can cause discomfort. Our team ensures that the frame width matches your child’s face shape for a snug, comfortable fit.
Bridge Fit
Children’s noses are smaller, and getting the bridge right is key. We offer frames with adjustable nose pads that allow for a better fit, preventing the glasses from sliding down.
Temple Length
The temples of the glasses should fit comfortably behind the ears without pinching. We ensure a proper length, so your child’s glasses sit securely and comfortably.
We believe every child deserves high-quality, comfortable eyewear that supports their visual needs. Frame prices range from $90 to over $200 depending on materials used, style, and features.
We can direct-bill most health insurance providers. Ask us about how you can maximize your available benefits during your visit.
