Fashion Meets Function: New Year, New Glasses That Protect Your Eyes

It’s a new year in Laguna Beach, and the perfect time to upgrade your eyewear with frames that turn heads and protect your eyes.

Your Eyewear Can Do More Than Match Your Style

If you’re shopping for new glasses this January, here’s something worth thinking about: style is just the beginning. The best modern eyewear blends fashion with function, and at Laguna Eyes Optometry, we believe your frames should be doing both.

Our designer frames feature sleek materials, custom fits, and advanced lens options that do more than just sharpen your vision. They’re built for your lifestyle, whether you’re driving the PCH at sunset, walking your dog in Heisler Park, or checking emails at Zinc Café.

And we get it. Our patients aren’t just looking for visual clarity. They want standout looks that feel as good as they perform. Whether it’s lightweight titanium, bold acetate, or the unmistakable flair of Fendi or Robert Marc, you’ll find something that fits your vibe and your vision needs.

Blue Light, UV Rays & Glare — These Frames Have You Covered

Let’s talk about what your eyes are up against in 2026. Most Laguna Beach locals spend hours on screens, and digital eye strain is no joke. Add in strong Southern California sunshine and long outdoor weekends, and you’ve got a recipe for tired, overworked eyes.

The good news? The right lenses can help prevent all of that. Our optical carries blue light filtering lenses, Transitions® lenses that adjust to sunlight, and polarized sunglasses with full UVA and UVB protection. And all of these lens options are available in the designer brands you already love.

New Year, New Priorities for Eye Protection

January is the perfect time to set your sights on better vision habits. Just like we reassess health goals or fitness routines, your eyewear deserves a fresh look too. If your current glasses don’t offer UV protection, blue light filtering, or lens coatings that reduce glare, you’re missing out on simple upgrades that make a big difference.

Laguna Eyes Optometrymakes it easy to get frames that match your personal style while meeting your eye health needs. Our opticians are happy to guide you through the options, explain how lens materials and coatings work, and help you try on designs that suit your face shape and lifestyle.

And if you’re due for an eye exam, we’ve got you covered there as well. Our comprehensive vision assessments not only update your prescription but also check for conditions like dry eye, early macular changes, or eye strain linked to digital device use. Keeping your eyes healthy helps you see clearly, but it also helps you feel your best.

Fashionable Eyewear in Laguna Beach

Whether you live in Laguna Niguel, Corona del Mar, or just down the street from our Coast Highway location, our boutique optical is open to walk-ins and scheduled visits alike. Our frame selection is curated with intention, offering something for every age and aesthetic — from bold trendsetters to minimal, timeless designs.

We also stock kids’ frames, specialty eyewear for athletes and creatives, and even custom lenses like posEYEdon contacts designed for maximum comfort and clarity.

See Better. Look Better. Live Better.
