Buying kids’ glasses

Buying kids’ glasses

It’s important to make the right decision when choosing glasses for your child to make sure they feel happy, comfortable and confident in their glasses – so they’ll want to wear them, not just because they need to.

It’s important to make the right decision when choosing glasses for your child to make sure they feel happy, comfortable and confident in their glasses – so they’ll want to wear them, not just because they need to.

 

Getting started

Most children will need to wear glasses because they are either short-sighted in which case they can take their pick from any of the styles in our kids’ range. If your child needs to wear glasses due to a medical condition, your optician will be able to advise on the best options to suit them and their needs.

It’s normal for kids to feel a bit reluctant to wear glasses, and in most cases, it’s all about how their glasses look. We’ve got a great selection of glasses for your child to choose from, including brands like Disney, Marvel and Emoji. So we’re confident they’ll find something that they’ll love to wear. Our in-store team will be happy to help find the right fit and style for your child.

Did you know kids can wear contact lenses?

If they’re really not keen on glasses, or they’d like to try something else, you child might like to try wearing contact lenses.

Kids’ glasses features

Our kids’ glasses include a range of features to make sure their glasses stay comfortable and last longer.

Scratch-resistant coating

All our kids’ glasses come with a free scratch-resistant treatment as standard. This is applied to the surface of each lens and will help their lenses last a little longer.

Lens tints

We wouldn’t usually recommend lens tints for kids, but a great option to consider are photochromic lenses (also known as reactions or transitions), which get darker when exposed to UV light. So if your little one is always in and out of doors, their lenses will adapt to the changing light, and provide that extra level of protection.

View lens options
Spring hinges

Many of our children’s glasses include spring hinges, which are great for keeping up with active youngsters. The sides can be bent inwards and outwards when putting them on or taking them off, which offers extra durability and flexibility – and means they’re less likely to break. Ask our team in store about which frames come with this feature.

How much should you spend on your child’s glasses?

You don’t need to spend a fortune on glasses for your child. Especially if they’re new to wearing glasses, it’s important they have the time to adapt to using, wearing and caring for their frames – which may include some bumps and breaks along the way.

Even better, all glasses in our Kids' and Teens' £64 and £85 ranges are free with an under-16s' NHS optical voucher. Your free pair will come with standard single-vision lenses with a scratch-resistant UV filter. Plus, under-16s get a free NHS-funded eye test.
