By Jasmine Wallace

There is often a full range of glasses and frames to select from including designer frames.

Your optician will first of all start with the prescription you have been given and you can both take things from there. There are different factors to consider including whether the child is long sighted or near sighted. Here are some ways which you will helpful in the minefield of spectacle buying.

Recommended lens which are strong are the best type to buy as they almost certainly will last longer in the hands of children.

Any parent will tell you to buy at least two pairs of glasses each time you visit the opticians.
