What I'm Wearing with Dr. Arian Fartash @GlamOptometrist

I am a big believer in AR [anti-reflective coating], especially while using the computer.  My favorite, is the Crizal Sapphire.  I know it is a little more pricey, but in this case you really are getting what you pay for.  My vision is crystal clear, barely any smudging, and my lens cleanings are much more sparse.  I highly, highly recommend it!  I have also been using Trivex lenses over Polycarbonate.  To me, the clarity of the lens is much better.

Current Sunglasses: My favorite line of sunglasses are from Tom Ford.  They are so well made and light!  I tend to have a flatter nose bridge so it is hard to wear just any kind of sunglasses, but almost every Tom Ford I have tried, fit perfectly.  Another line I am loving right now is from Miu Miu.  Their glasses are just so fun! From the funky shapes to colors. Same goes for Jimmy Choo.  Another less expensive line I have recently tried is Quay Australia.  They are very trendy sunglasses that have reflective lenses, which is a big trend in eyewear right now. 

What's Trending? My favorite trends are reflective lenses, colored frames, and anything outside of the big, black, thick frame.

What's Your Next Frame Purchase?  Truth be told, I am wanting to try lines from smaller vendors, but of good quality.  

What New Lens Technology Will You Be Trying Next? Chanel has these new mirrored lenses that are made with actual gold. I'd like to try that. 

Advice for Your Next Purchase:  Living part time in San Francisco, which is mainly millennials like me, I have been exposed to patients wanting to order online.  I really don't know how I feel about this because I think that there really is an art to choosing that perfect pair of glasses and opticians are well trained to help patients do so.  They are also more informed about various products designed to make the patient's life more comfortable.  Within the online world a huge part of that is taken away.  Two weeks ago an online glasses company offered me a complimentary pair of glasses, I am yet to get them, so I may change my mind when it comes to online ordering after trying them.  I know our generation wants everything NOW, but that doesn't always mean it is better.
