As your vision and comfort levels change with age, so do the needs you have in a pair of glasses. 

It is advisable to have regular eye checks by an optometrist or eye specialist. Regular eye tests will help detect any problems early and allow the best treatment and support.

Eyeglasses come in several different types:

Corrective—these are used to correct conditions of nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism

Safety—these are designed to protect from flying debris, but may be of benefit to seniors who have a need for special eyeglass protection

Sunglasses--Sunglasses may be made with either prescription or non-prescription lenses that are darkened to provide protection against bright visible and possibly ultraviolet light.
