Fashionable Frames

Your eyewear is an extension of your personal style. A great pair of glasses is the perfect accessory.

Glasses can draw people in and show off your facial features, or they can blend into the background and simply complement a great outfit. Classic frames go from day to night with ease, providing sophistication to your office attire or understated elegance to a more formal dress. Funky frames stand out, and show everyone you’re ready to take on the world.

Maybe you’re looking for a pop of colour to add pizzazz to your work wardrobe. Perhaps you’d like to try a new, trendy frame shape. Or maybe, you’d like to keep it chic and select a pair of designer frames for every occasion.

Whatever your needs, our experienced team will work with you to understand your personality, your lifestyle, and your look. We’ll recommend the perfect pair for your face shape, and you can try on as many as you like.

We know how good you’ll feel walking out of our office with a great new accessory and we’d love to be a part of your shopping experience. Come and see us to find fashionable frames today.

In addition to finding the most fashionable frames for your face, we also offer the right type of lens. We provide prescription swim goggles so you can see clearly. We also offer the “Eye See, Eye Learn” program and OVP (Occupational Vision Plan) safety glasses to protect your sight on the job.

We welcome all ODSP, Veteran’s Affair’s, and Indigenous Affair’s patients as well.

Framing Your Features

We have brands, colours, and styles for every budget. Our team is well-versed in the latest trends and can help you select the right frame for your face shape.

Here are a few tips:

Oval Face Shapes

Almost any frame shape suits an oval face. Oval faces are balanced and proportional and the frames you select should help to maintain that natural balance.

Look for something that is as wide or wider than the broadest part of your face.

Heart Face Shapes

People with heart-shaped faces have wider upper faces and narrow chins. Frames that are wider along the bottom can help to balance out a heart-shaped face.

Generally, people with this face shape are blessed with high cheekbones. A cat-eye frame shape can draw attention to this coveted trait.

Square Face Shapes

Those with square faces often have strong jawlines and broad foreheads. Selecting a thin, circular frame can provide softness to your well-defined angles.

Round Face Shapes

For people with round faces, narrow, angular eyewear can help to elongate facial features.

Triangle Face Shapes

Wide lower faces that are narrower on top characterize the triangle face shape. Round eyewear offers an interesting twist and the classic aviator looks great on people with triangle face shapes.
