Eyeglasses & Contacts

Making a decision about your eyewear goes beyond good vision and makes a statement about who you are. Your decision affects how you see and also how you want to be seen by others. But with so many different styles to choose from, getting the right look for your face and your lifestyle can be overwhelming. 1V6A0220

Our staff will help you find the best fit for your specific needs and explain how different lenses and frames will impact your vision. They will help you narrow down your choices so you can find the look, fit and functionality you want from your eyewear.

We offer a large selection of eyeglasses, contact lenses and designer frames and sunglasses. We carry the latest European and American designer eyewear collections in a variety of styles, colors and materials including titanium, stainless steel and plastic.

New clients and all our current patients are welcome to visit us with their current prescription – no appointment necessary.

  • Each month at Island Optical & Eyecare, we showcase a different brand of designer frames.  This means that instead of having a small portion of the line on hand, we have 48-72 pieces of the showcased brand on hand.  This allows you to see all options in a collection.  And even better, all Designer Showcase frames are 25% off for the month they are displayed!
