Sunglasses FAQs

What are the benefits of photochromic sunglasses?

Photochromic lenses (with or without prescription) adjust to brightness. They darken as you step outside on a sunny day and get lighter when you go indoors. This means that you can wear the same glasses everywhere without having to switch from regular glasses to sunglasses.

Are sunglass lens coatings worth it?

While sunglasses provide plenty of protection for your eyes, lens coatings add even more benefits. You can choose anti-reflective coatings to cut down on glare and make driving safer. Tinted sunglasses can help you see colors and detail more distinctly. Scratch-resistant coatings help prevent damage so you can enjoy your shades for longer.

Is it OK to wear sunglasses with contacts?

Unless your contact lenses provide 100% UV protection — most don’t — always remember to don your sunglasses before heading outdoors. Sunglasses with 100% UV protection screen out harmful rays and winds that tend to dry out your eyes more quickly. This is good news for contact lens wearers who run the risk of developing dry eye symptoms.

How to tell if sunglasses have UV protection?

To make sure that your sunglasses block 100% of UVA and UVB rays, make sure to purchase your shades from a licensed optometrist.

How Do I Choose the Right Sunglasses?

To select your perfect sunglasses, consider the following:

  • Frames

    You want your sunglasses to last, so choose durable, high-quality frames. Whether you choose plastic, acetate, aluminum, stainless steel or even wooden frames, make sure that the frames fit well, look good, and are comfortable to wear.

  • Lenses

    Lenses correct your vision, protect your eyes and enhance your style. Always choose lenses that screen out 100% of UV rays. You can also choose special features like anti-glare, polarized shades or tints. To prevent damage, select durable lenses.

  • Shape

    Sunglass shapes not only express your unique style; they provide a protective barrier against the elements. Wrap-around sunglasses shield your eyes from wind and flying debris. The right frames also complement your face and help you bring your best features forward.

  • Prescription

    Once you’ve undergone an eye exam, you can purchase sunglasses with the same prescription as your regular glasses. Wearing prescription sunglasses allows you to enjoy the outdoors while protecting your eyes from harmful UV rays.

I called around trying to get an eye exam & places were booking out a month or 2 .. Village eye asso... ciates got me in for my appointment in just a few days. I was in & out in 40 minutes! The staff was great but Dr. Afshar was fantastic! He was very personable & was clear in explaining what I needed, what I didn’t need and why. I’m so happy I found this place & will be returning for all my families eye care 🙂

Dr. Bejian is a treat for your eyes! I had my first exam, with her, yesterday. Dr. Bejian is highly ... qualified, thorough and has great Doctor-Patient communication skills. She uses state of the art technology to chart your eyes and she reviews and explains all health aspects with you. You will be more informed about your eyes, than you imagined possible. I felt I was well taken care of, during the testing and exam process. The office is Beautiful! The entire staff worked as a team, from my first phone call. All provided professional, friendly Customer Service. Kudos! Fran O. Nashua, NH

I am Claudia Nangle, Paul's wife . I stopped in to Village Associates today to have my eyeglasses fi... xed. I met Dr. Suraj Afshar. I was pleased to meet him and his wonderful staff. Every person that I met was so friendly. I was even able to have an eye exam because the Dr. had an opening. I was very impressed with all the new equipment.he was so knowledgeable about dry eyes and of all my eye problems. I found a new eye doctor!!! I got a new prescription and new frames that I love. The sales people from the frame company were there. They were so helpful in my selection of my frames. Also there is a sale on frames, 30% off. The new office was beautiful !!! I was also happy to see Carol my favorite person who has helped me for many years!!! Thank you all for a most wonderful visit today!!! The SALE of frames will go on for 2 More days Wed. and Thurs just in case you want to get a new pair of glasses!!! Thank you all for your professionalism in the office!!!

I ALWAYS feel like I am in good hands here. Dr. Bejian has always gone above and beyond to ensure my... eyes are taken care of, from any preventative care to giving me samples of new contacts to try that have better technology than my current ones. Julie is a fantastic admin who is on top of everything. She spent so much time on the phone helping me to update my prescription order, and emailed me prompty with the relevant paperwork. Really wonderful practice all around

Dr. Florence Bejian is very professional, knowledgeable, and equally personable. There is a calm and... relaxing office atmosphere that takes away any stress associated with eye examinations, testing, and related health discussion. Over many, many years, Dr. Bejian has shown to be consistent in her care and thorough eye health care approach, remaining current in the field and an active participant. Simply a great health care experience.

I've been seeing Dr. Bejian since I was a child, and have never had any issues or complaints. The o... ffice is tidy and comfortable, and the wait is never more than a few minutes. The staff is kind, efficient, helpful, and prompt. Dr. Bejian is not only a highly intelligent, wonderful, & knowledgeable clinician, but also a lovely, warm, and caring person. She spends as much time with you as you need (no matter how many questions you have!), and is incredibly thorough in her exam and treatment. I have seen other doctors in her office as well, and I highly recommend her or any of them--they're all fantastic!

I have been a patient of Dr. Bejian's for over 25 years. During each comprehensive eye exam that I ... have had by her, she thoroughly explains the results and the care appropriate for my eyes. More than ample time is always allowed for my appointments. I have complete trust in her as the primary caregiver of my eyes..
- Oct. 05, 2016
Dr. Bejian not only a highly skilled and competent optometrist, she is a genuinely caring and kind p... rofessional. Staff at Village Eye Associates always make you feel as if you are the only patient!
- Oct. 05, 2016
I have had a few unusual eye problems and she has always been there for me and able to fix the probl... ems. She does not rush you and wants you to be satisfied and always follows up.
- Oct. 04, 2016
I've been going to Dr. Bejian for 20+ years and I can't imagine going anywhere else. She does an exc... ellent job; I know my eyes are in good hands. I recently had PRK Lasik eye surgery (at a place recommended by Dr. Bejian), and have been going to Dr. Bejian for all of the many follow-up visits. I'm pleased with that experience as well.
- Oct. 04, 2016
Dr. Bejian is very thorough! I would recommend her in a heart-beat. Her staff is very good...every... one I've interacted with there has been super nice and helpful.
- Oct. 03, 2016
My experience with Dr. Bejian has been wonderful. She is a doctor who truly cares about each of her... patients and takes the time to talk with them and explain what is going on with their eye prescription and health - something you don't experience often these days in Dr.'s offices. She'll also make sure her patients know what's the latest in contact and eyeglass lenses. She is an experienced Optometrist, and I am confident in her skills. The staff in her office is also friendly, and very helpful when scheduling appointments. I highly recommend Village Eye.
- Oct. 02, 2016
Excellent all around - I have been seeing Dr. Bejian for 18 years and though I have complicated eye ... issues I have gotten comprehensive care with good coordination with specialists. Dr Bejian and her staff follow through on the smallest of details and I always feel very cared for and in the best of hands. All three of my kids are in contact lenses and she always knows the latest and most healthy options to offer them. And Stan and his optical shop are the best too!
- Oct. 02, 2016
If you need a one stop eye care provider who listens to you and takes the time to provide you with e... xcellent care, this is the place. The standards are high and customer service is still alive at Village Eye Associates with both the Physician and the Optician staff! I have never felt like "just a number" here for the 10 years I have been a patient. I have been very happy with the service provided.
- Oct. 02, 2016
Enjoyable staff, efficient appointments, and easy online ordering of contacts!
- Oct. 02, 2016
Dr. Bejian is so thorough, knowledgeable and experienced. In addition, she is one of my favorite pe... ople, even though I only see her once a year for my checkups. Everyone in the office is friendly, and I love my new contacts and my new glasses. My family and I have been going to her for eye care since she first came to Chelmsford, about 1989 or so.
