When Should You Replace Your Glasses or Update Your Prescription?
Your glasses do a lot for you—but are they still doing their job right? Whether it’s your prescription, comfort, or style, here’s how to know when it’s time for an upgrade.
1. Your Vision Feels “Off”
Blurry text? Eye strain? Headaches? If you find yourself squinting or struggling to focus, your prescription might need an update. Eye health changes over time—regular checkups help keep your vision sharp.
2. You’re Getting Frequent Headaches
Your brain works overtime to compensate for outdated lenses. If you’re experiencing headaches, dizziness, or eye fatigue, your prescription might no longer match your needs.
3. Your Frames Are Worn Out
Loose hinges, scratched lenses, or peeling coatings? Your frames have a lifespan. If they’re bent, uncomfortable, or just plain tired, it’s time for a refresh.
4. You’re Struggling with Digital Screens
Spending hours on screens? If your eyes feel strained, dry, or tired, upgrading to blue light-filtering lenses or adjusting your prescription can make a world of difference.
5. You Haven’t Had an Eye Exam in Over a Year
Vision changes gradually, and many people don’t notice until it’s too late. An annual eye exam ensures your prescription is up to date and catches any early signs of eye conditions.
6. Your Style Has Evolved
Eyewear isn’t just about function—it’s a statement. If your frames no longer reflect your style or personality, it’s time to explore something new.
