Eyeform Kids and Children’s Glasses

April 13th, 2012

Vision plays a vital role in the reading and learning process for children. Unfortunately about 20% of children struggle to see clearly. Common problems include long-sightedness, short-sightedness, squints and lazy eyes. Some children suffer from dyslexia, derived from the Greek meaning for ‘difficulty with words’. Children with dyslexia often have trouble with reading, writing and spelling, maths, following instructions, and confusing left and right. It can also affect concentration, coordination, communication and short term memory.Whatever the problem, the sooner it is detected the more effectively it can be treated, with the most appropriate treatment or product tailored to the child’s age and specific needs.

Eyeform stock a wide and varied range of childens eyewear and we pride ourselves on the care we provide for children and parents.We have both optical glasses and sunglasses for children ranging from newborns through to young adults. This includes well known brands such as Active, Little Wingels, Ray-Ban, Zeiss and Zoobug. Eyeform kids dedicates itself to providing the best in children’s frames, assuring for all age brackets, that they are both practical and aesthetically pleasing. When dispensing our high quality eyewear, we take into account the advice of specialists, the needs of the child and wishes of their parents.

                                            

For children glasses must be comfortable, colourful and fun, and allow them to see better and undertake their daily activities without limitations and with this in mind we offer a vast selection in all different shapes, colours and sizes for both boys and girls.

One of our most popular products are our soft and flexible frames designed for babies and children aged from approximately three months to eight years. They are made from a lightweight allergy free material, and contain no screws or nose pads which may present choking hazards. A special adjustable head band keeps the frame snugly in place to improve optical correction. All of the frames are durable and safe and so come highly recommended for babies and active children.

Eyeform kids also cater for high and complicated prescriptions, often for children born with congenital cataracts who have recently undergone surgery. We supply polycarbonate high density lenses for all of our children, which are both non-breakable and scratch resistant.

We strongly recommend transition or tinted prescription lenses for reduced glare and full protection from the sun’s harmful UV rays. In addition we provide a full range of children’s sunglasses which aid them in dealing with the sun.These also come in snazzy and exciting colours and styles.

On top of all this we are pleased to announce that we will be stocking SWISSFLEX  eyewear for children. This eyewear is super light, does not apply pressure, does not slip and slide when children play and they look great. SWISSFLEX kids are unbeatable eyeglasses for children, absolutely reliable – even when the going gets tough.

     

Feel free to contact us or pop instore to see all these glasses or to pick up a brochure with further details of the eyecare services we can offer to children. In addition more news can be found on our pages via twitter and facebook.

Hooray the sun is here!

March 14th, 2012

…well off and on.

No better time to remind you then of the need to protect your eyes from the potential harm of the sun’s UV radiation.

Rarely do we neglect our skin, applying sun-cream regularly to prevent premature aging or worse skin cancer but what about our eyes?!

It may be less immediately visible but the damage done to them from the sun can be just as bad, eventually leading to:

Cataracts- a clouding that develops in the lens of the eye varying in severity from slight opacity to complete blindness if left undetected

Photokeratitis – essentially painful sunburn of the eyes cornea and conjunctiva

Pterygium -  a growth in the corner of the eye which may grow sufficiently large to obscure vision and require surgical removal

Basal cell carcinoma -  skin cancer on and around the delicate eye lids

There’s no need to spend a fortune to save yourself from the above. Simply buy a pair with lenses that protect from 99-100% of both UV-A and UV-B rays from a reputable retailer such as us. Ensure too that they fit reasonably close to your eyes so minimise any UV slipping in from the sides.  Wrap around styles are particularly good in this respect.

In other words WEAR SUNGLASSES!

You could look as cool as this:

N.B: Beware of rip offs because if the lenses haven’t got UV protection, they will not only fail to prevent UV rays from harming your eyes but may actually exacerbate the problem. The dark lenses will serve only to open your pupils wider actually exposing your eyes to more harm.

Looking After Childrens Eye in Summertime

August 8th, 2011

Having been recently reading of the news of studies that children these days will have a life expectancy of 100 has brought to mind a few important issues. Firstly a recent report stated that in the USA artificial lens implants are now topping the list as the most frequently implanted medical device into the human body. This is due in the most part due to the treatment of cataracts In addition hearing devices were also very high up on that list. It brings to the attention just how vital it is that we protect these to precious senses particularly of our children from a young age.

As London is in the middle of it’s summer season (Although a very mixed one at best right now) the sunny days we have had has seen a number of children out with little protection from the sun for the eyes. In addition it is noticeable the young ones we see out there wearing cheap sunglasses often obtain from markets or shops which whilst at a reasonable price have little by way of safety standard attached to it . The major concern with this is of course that in saving money the longer term effects can be far more costly. Glasses with no UV protection can in fact be damaging to the eye. Our pupils will open up greater whilst wearing sunglasses (Much as they do at night) meaning any glasses that are not UV protected allow for pupil damage to occur. So as we enjoy the sunshine it is important that much like wearing sunscreen for the skin attention should be placed on how the eyes are protected with the sun. Ensure that whatever your age the sunglasses you use are UV protected and conform to correct safety standards.

At eyeform we pride ourselves for our stocks of sunglasses and this includes our children’s brands such as Little Wingels, Centrostyle and our biggest sellers Ray Ban all of which are UV protected and aimed at ensuring eye health is maintained.
