Luxury

Tom Ford

Polished designer recognition in structured acetate and metal shapes built to be part of the outfit.
Worth trying if…

You want a frame with designer presence, not just prescription lenses in a frame. Materials and finish vary by model.

Gucci

The most recognizable designer name on our boards, logo-forward and unmistakable.
Worth trying if…

You want the designer identity to read clearly from across a room. Ask our optical team which shapes are currently in.

Everyday

Ray-Ban

The easiest starting point — recognizable Aviator and Wayfarer shapes that carry from optical into sun.
Worth trying if…

You want a familiar shape that won't feel unfamiliar next season. Not every style suits every prescription — our optical team can confirm fit.

Tommy Hilfiger

One of the most-picked names on our boards — clean, casual styling that moves easily from the office to the weekend, in one line built to work for men and women rather than separate his-and-hers collections.
Worth trying if…

You want an easy, familiar frame that's proven itself with our patients, not the newest trend. Fit varies by model — our optical team can help you narrow it down.

Chesterfield

A quieter men's alternative to the heritage silhouettes, in larger eye sizes and without an obvious brand signature.
Worth trying if…

You want a classic look that isn't advertising a brand, or a Ray-Ban shape hasn't fit your face well.

Kate Spade

A patient favorite for cheerful color and small design details on shapes that still wear easily day to day.
Worth trying if…

You want a frame with real personality without going full statement piece. Ask our optical team which colorways are currently on the boards.

Kids

Nano

Flexible, durability-first construction for babies through active kids, across Nano Baby, Nano Indestructible, and Nano Sport.
Worth trying if…

Your child is hard on glasses, or you're fitting a baby or toddler for the first time. Bends instead of breaks — we don't promise it can't break.

Champion

An athletic look for school-age kids and teens, in boys' and girls' shapes.
Worth trying if…

Your child wants their glasses to read sporty without a technical performance frame.

Kate Spade Teen

The color and detailing of the adult Kate Spade line, scaled for a teenager.
Worth trying if…

Your teen wants a frame that looks grown-up rather than one from the kids' board.

Decisions

Which one, and why?

Three common decisions patients ask about, side by side.

Ray-Ban or Chesterfield?

Ray-Ban: recognizable heritage shapes, and the same look carries from your optical frame to your sunglasses.

Chesterfield: a quieter, more traditional alternative on our boards, useful if a Ray-Ban silhouette isn't the fit or the look you want. Ask our optical team what fits your face best — sizing and styling vary by model.

A lightweight frame or a statement frame?

A lightweight frame (Morel, Charmant): minimal weight and minimal visual presence. The frame steps back and lets your face lead, and you stop noticing it's there by mid-morning.

A statement frame (Tom Ford, NW77th, Missoni): more visual presence, color, and thickness. The frame becomes part of how you present yourself. Both are comfortable when they're fit properly — this is a look decision, not a comfort one.

Nano or Demi & Dash?

Nano: flexibility and retention first. Our usual starting point for babies, toddlers, and any child who is genuinely hard on glasses.

Demi & Dash: more color and pattern, on frames still sized for small faces. A good fit for a child who cares what their glasses look like and treats them reasonably well.

Not sure which shapes suit your face? Ask our optical team in person — they'll help you narrow it down while you try frames.

Questions

Common questions about glasses at COVE.

Q.01 Can I use my vision insurance toward glasses? +

We accept VSP and EyeMed. Most plans through these networks cover a frame allowance and a portion of your lens cost on an annual or biannual basis. We verify your specific plan benefits in advance so you know what's covered before you pick out frames.

We don't currently accept Spectera/UnitedHealthcare Vision, Davis Vision, or Superior Vision. If your employer offers VSP or EyeMed as a vision option at open enrollment, those are the two that work with us.

Q.02 How much do glasses cost at COVE? +

Total cost depends on your prescription and the options you choose: the frame, the lens material, single-vision versus progressive, polarization, coatings. We walk you through every option that actually matters for your prescription and how you use your glasses, with the full cost on the table before any lenses are ordered. No surprises at pickup.

Vision insurance can cover a significant portion of both the frame and the lenses. We verify your specific plan benefits in advance.

Q.03 Can I use my HSA or FSA to pay for glasses and contacts? +

Yes. Prescription eyewear is an eligible medical expense under most HSA and FSA plans — that includes glasses, prescription sunglasses, contact lenses and solution, and your eye exam. You can run an HSA or FSA card at checkout like any other card, or pay another way and submit an itemized receipt for reimbursement. Just ask and we’ll print one for you.

You can also stack it with vision insurance: we run your VSP or EyeMed benefit first, then you put HSA or FSA dollars toward whatever’s left. Non-prescription sunglasses and accessories generally aren’t eligible. Plans vary, so check with your plan administrator if you’re unsure — and if you have an FSA, keep in mind those dollars usually expire at the end of the plan year.

Q.04 How long does it take to get my glasses? +

Most prescriptions are ready in a few business days. Straightforward prescriptions (single-vision in standard materials) can often be finished the same day in our in-house lab; add an extra few minutes after your exam.

More complex prescriptions take longer because the lenses are custom made at outside specialty labs. Progressives, high powers, specialty coatings, and Stellest myopia-control lenses typically take 1–2 weeks.

Q.05 What if my prescription changes after I get my glasses? +

We remake lenses at no charge for 6 months if your prescription is off or changes. Bring the glasses back, we'll verify the new prescription, and remake the lenses. No questions, no extra cost.

Specialty lenses have their own terms on top of this. For Stellest myopia-control lenses, we remake at no charge if the prescription changes by 0.50 D (two clicks) or more. For ortho-K, we work with you until the fit is right.

Q.06 Can you fill a prescription in frames I bought somewhere else? +

Yes. Bring the frames in and we'll check the fit first. Not every online frame is structurally sound enough to take prescription lenses. Some are too narrow at the temples, off-center, or made of materials that don't survive the lens-cutting process. Once we confirm the frame works, we treat it like any other lens job.

If the frame won't work, we'll tell you honestly and show you frames on our boards that fit the same look.
