The Custom Eyeglasses Process at Our Pittsford Optometry Practice

At our optometry practice, creating your custom eyeglasses begins with a comprehensive eye exam by Dr. Wynne. This thorough evaluation includes:

  • Medical Examination: An in-depth assessment of the internal and external structures of your eyes to detect any health concerns.

  • Visual Assessment (Refraction): Unlike many practices, Dr. Wynne personally conducts this assessment, fine-tuning your prescription based on your input and specific lifestyle needs to ensure peak visual acuity.

Personalized Eyewear Consultation

After your exam, you'll meet with our experienced, New York State-licensed opticians, Mike and Barb. With years of expertise, they will:

  1. Assess Your Visual Needs: We gather information about your daily activities—whether at work, home, or during leisure—to recommend the best frames and lenses for your lifestyle.

  2. Guide Frame Selection: Taking into account facial structure, personal style, and color preferences, Mike and Barb help you choose eyewear that balances both comfort and aesthetics.

  3. Use of Digital Photography: To ease the challenge of selecting frames without your current glasses, we use digital photography to help you visualize the perfect pair.

Precision Measurements for Optimal Fit

Once your frames are chosen, we take precise measurements, including:

  • Optical center placement

  • Multifocal heights

  • Vertex distances

  • Pantoscopic tilt and curvature

We also recommend lens materials that minimize thickness and weight while enhancing vision based on your specific prescription and frame choice.

In-House Lens Crafting

Our practice features an on-site lens edging lab, equipped with cutting-edge technology. Mike and Barb are not only expert opticians but also skilled "bench" opticians, ensuring:

  • Accurate lens cutting

  • Strict quality control

  • Customization for individual needs

Final Fitting and Follow-Up Care

During your dispensing appointment, we:

  • Ensure a precise and comfortable fit for maximum clarity and comfort.

  • Provide instructions on lens care and maintenance.

  • Offer a protective case, lens cleaner, and cleaning cloth for your convenience.

We also offer ongoing adjustments and repairs as part of our commitment to excellent follow-up care. Since every pair of glasses is meticulously crafted, we encourage you to visit us for any necessary fine-tuning to maintain a perfect fit.
