We have been in business for 10 years! Wow, that went fast! Please help us celebrate with a party and Oliver Peoples Trunk show on July 18th. We will have snacks, free lens giveaways, and more. Stop by for a bit and say hello! Also, this is your chance to view the ENTIRE Oliver Peoples collection in one sitting (trunk show ending at 6 PM).
Prada $100 off!
All our remaining Prada frames are now $100 off, and they can be turned into sunglasses as well! We brought the line in but they didn’t move as fast as we expected! Help us get rid of them so we can bring another more colorful, funky line into our optical!
BIG NEWS!
We got an edger for our office! An edger is a machine that will allow us to edge lenses (i.e. make Rx glasses) for you right in our office! This allows for better quality control and faster turnaround time. This is doable for certain Rx's and with certain insurances.
Where in LONGMONT was Dr. Neka when she took this photo?
You can’t answer here…but if you follow us on Facebook you can! About twice/month, Dr. Neka will post on Facebook a photo of a spot in Longmont and if you are the first to guess the location correctly, you can win a prize (past prizes have included Ziggi’s gift cards, Chipotle gift cards, and a bottle of contact lens solution). Follow us on Facebook to join in on the fun!
Did you know that a lot of VSP plans now cover non-rx sunglasses?...
…And we now carry awesome sunglasses that are actually covered by VSP. So you could walk in, pick a pair of sunnies from our board, take them home the same day with a nice case, and often pay nothing (though sometimes there is a small copay due). And no, these sunnies that are covered are NOT cheapie gas station sunnies! They include brands like Juicy Couture, Bebe, Polaroid and more. Contact us if you want to find out if your VSP plan is set up like this…where you could get free sunnies each year.
Holiday Toy Drive...please donate if you can!
A high schooler in our Longmont community was diagnosed with a rare cancer when she was 7 years old. Now she’s thriving and in high school and wants to give back to those families going through something similar, through the Shining Stars foundation. These toys will be given to those aged 3-18 with pediatric cancer. We are collecting toys until Dec 20th at our office.
This is something that is close to my heart, hence why I wanted to help this high schooler with this project when I heard about it. We were in the NICU with our son for almost 5 months, and it’s not an easy place to be, especially over the holidays. I can’t imagine being in that place with a child who was older. I figure that any bit of extra joy for these children may help.
This week, we will be donating 30% of our profits to the Our Center!
About our retinal camera, Ernie
Yes, one of our pediatric patients decided to name him Ernie a few years ago. And the name has stuck ever since. Did you know that our retinal camera takes better quality images than the well-known “optomap” you may have had done in the past? It is the only retinal camera on the market that is TRUE to color and it is considered by most eye doctors to be the latest and greatest when it comes to monitoring diabetic retinopathy, epiretinal membranes, macular degeneration, and more. Dr. Neka will decide if yearly photos make sense for you or if every 2 years would be sufficient, based on your health history and several other factors.
