Which glasses suit my face shape ?

To get a great fit, you need to consider several things: the size of the
frames, how your eyes align within the lenses, how the glasses sit on
your nose, and overall comfort. Even a few millimeters can make a big
difference! That’s why we strongly recommend trying on glasses before
you buy.

What is the best way to clean and maintain my glasses ?

Proper maintenance extends the life of your eyewear. Cleaning with mild
soap and water, drying with a microfiber cloth, and storing glasses in a
protective case are effective practices.

Are there glasses that adjust to light conditions ?

Photochromic lenses, also known as transition lenses, darken in response
to sunlight and clear up indoors, offering convenience for those
frequently moving between different lighting environments.

How do I choose between different Frame Materials ?

Frame materials vary in weight, durability, and flexibility. At
l’Atelier we only use durable and materials like acetate (lightweight
bold and colorful), or titanium (lightweight strong and hypoallergenic).

How do I prevent my glasses from fogging up ?

Fogging can be an issue, especially when transitioning between different
temperatures. Using cleaning sprays or wipes and ensuring a proper fit
can help reduce fogging.

How often should I replace my glasses ?

It's generally recommended to have an eye exam every one to two years. If
there's a change in prescription or if glasses are damaged, replacement
might be necessary sooner.
