Prescription glasses that support advanced eye care 

Eyeglasses in Chesapeake, VA 

Your lenses and frames are selected to match your prescription, your daily tasks, and the long-term health of your eyes, within a practice that strongly focuses on medical eye care and modern diagnostics.

Eyeglasses at Dominion Eye Care Chesapeake

Because Dominion Eye Care Chesapeake is built around advanced medical eye care, your glasses prescription is never treated as an isolated detail. During your exam, Dr. Brook Keaton evaluates your vision, eye health, and risk factors for conditions such as glaucoma, keratoconus, and diabetic eye disease before updating your prescription. 

That means your eyeglasses are designed with a clear understanding of how your eyes are functioning today and what they may need in the years ahead. The goal is not only clear vision, but also support for comfortable, efficient seeing at work, at school, and during daily activities.

Eyeglasses for Families in Chesapeake

Lens technology can significantly improve how comfortably you see throughout the day, especially if you work at a computer, drive long distances, or move between multiple focal distances.

Common lens options include: 

  • Single vision, progressive, and bifocal lenses
  • High-index lenses for strong prescriptions
  • Lenses designed for computer and digital device work
  • Options that address glare, reflection, and UV exposure 

Based on your prescription and lifestyle, Dr. Keaton and the optical team will recommend lens designs and coatings that make the most sense for your daily routine, not simply the default or most basic option.

Frame Selection with a Certified Optician 

Eyeglasses should fit well, feel balanced, and reflect your personal style without overwhelming your face. Dominion Eye Care Chesapeake’s optical department is supported by a certified optician, allowing you to benefit from professional guidance on both fit and function.

During your visit, the optician will: 

  • Help you select frames that align with your prescription strength and lens thickness.
  • Adjust nose pads, temple length, and frame alignment for comfort and stability.
  • Review how the frame shape affects vision zones in progressive or multifocal lenses.

This approach helps reduce common frustrations such as slipping frames, pressure points, or difficulty adjusting to new lenses. 

Prescription Sunglasses & Everyday Protection 

Sun protection is an integral part of eye health, especially for patients at increased risk of macular degeneration or other retinal conditions. 

Dominion Eye Care Chesapeake offers prescription sunglasses and lens treatments that can help reduce glare while driving, improve comfort outdoors, and protect against UV exposure.

Options may include dedicated prescription sunglasses or clear everyday lenses with photochromic technology, depending on your needs and preferences.

We Have an In-Office Lab for Efficient Service 

The practice includes an in-office lab, which allows certain lens orders and adjustments to be handled more efficiently than sending all work to an outside facility. 

This can mean: 

  • Faster turnaround on many prescriptions 
  • Quicker resolution when a minor adjustment or remake is required 
  • Greater control over quality checks before glasses are dispensed 

While some complex lenses still require outside fabrication, the in-office lab supports a smoother, more controlled process for many patients. 

What to Expect When You Choose New Glasses 

When you select eyeglasses at Dominion Eye Care Chesapeake, the process is structured and guided, rather than rushed or left to guesswork. After your eye exam and updated prescription, you will: 

  • Discuss how you use your eyes at work, at home, and during recreation. 
  • Receive recommendations on lens designs that match those needs. 
  • Work with the optician to choose frames that suit your face, prescription, and personal style. 
  • Have measurements taken for accurate lens placement, especially for progressives and multifocals. 
  • Return for final adjustments once your glasses are ready to ensure a secure, comfortable fit. 

If you have experienced difficulty adjusting to glasses in the past, this step-by-step process helps identify and address potential issues early.

Eyeglasses for Patients with Eye Conditions 

For patients managing glaucoma, keratoconus, myopia progression, diabetic eye disease, or other medical conditions, eyeglasses remain an important part of overall care, even when contact lenses or specialty lenses are also used.

Dr. Keaton may recommend specific lens designs, backup glasses for contact lens wearers, or task-specific eyewear that supports work, driving, or reading. This is especially important for patients whose vision can change over time or whose eyes require ongoing monitoring.
