How often should I replace my glasses ?
It can be difficult to know exactly when to replace your glasses, especially if they're still in good condition. Most opticians recommend changing your glasses every one to three years.
However, this varies for each individual as different factors affect when you'll need to change your glasses.
Wearing an old correction
Wearing old glasses because you think they always correct in the right way is a common mistake. This can have a negative impact on your vision. Everyone's eyes are different and evolve over time, so it's important to keep your correction up to date.
How do I know if I need a new correction?
We recommend an eye examination at least once a year.
That's why we've equipped most of our stores with an eye examination machine. In just 30 minutes, our opticians can detect a change in correction and adapt your prescription, so that the social security system will cover the cost of a new pair of glasses.
This test is particularly useful if you notice any signs of vision change yourself. Do objects seem a little blurred? Do you notice that you have to squint to see what's in front of you? These are signs that you're wearing the wrong correction.

Technology.
Advances in lenses and optometry are frequently made through constant innovation. This means that, over time, your glasses can be customized to suit your daily life, which is also changing. For example, new lenses are now available that adapt to your vision, such as progressive lenses for those who need help seeing both far and near. Progressive lenses mean you don't have to keep changing your glasses.
Anti-blue-light coating is another technological advance available for lenses. It adds a special coating layer that filters out the blue light emitted by computer screens, cell phone screens and even the sun! The blue-light filter can be applied to all our eyewear.

When should I replace my sunglasses?
In theory, sunglasses should last longer without correction. However, if your sunglasses are damaged (for example, if the coating starts to flake off), it's time to buy a new pair! This is particularly important as the coating on sunglasses is the UV protection layer that is there to protect your eyes.
