If I have problems with my glasses fitting, how long am I covered?
You can stop by anytime to get your glasses adjusted or repaired. There is no time limit on how long you can wait, it is always free and for the life of the glasses.

I just got my new glasses, how long should it take to adjust to them? Is there anything I can do to make the transition with the new glasses easier?
There is an adaptation period with all new prescriptions; the amount of change will dictate the length of the period of time. It could take up to two weeks to get used to your new lenses. The best way is to just wear them and not switch back and forth from your old set to your new set.You are more adaptable to change first thing in the morning as your eyes will accept a change more easily after a full night of not wearing any glasses.

How long is the warranty for my glasses?
All Frames are warranted for one year from the date of purchase. Most lenses have a one year warranty for scratching, and glare free lenses have a two year warranty.

How can I prevent scratches on my lenses and with what do I clean them with?
Caring for your glasses is very important. Here are a few tips to help. Do not to lay your glasses face down on any surface and keep them in the case when you are not wearing them. When cleaning your lenses, always use a soft cloth or anything cotton. Do not use Kleenex or paper towels, which will scratch your lenses. With every pair of glasses purchased from Ohio Eye Care Consultants, you will receive a bottle of cleaner and a cleaning cloth.
