EXPERT OPTICIANS

Expert Fitting, Free Lifetime Adjustments

Sunglasses that don't fit properly let UV light in around the edges. Our licensed opticians professionally fit every pair to your face shape — temples, nose pads, and frame angle. All sunglasses come with free lifetime adjustments. Drop by anytime, no appointment needed. Serving south Edmonton families since 2017.

UV PROTECTION

Why UV Protection Matters in Edmonton

Edmonton gets over 2,300 hours of sunshine per year — and UV exposure is just as strong in winter when sunlight reflects off snow and ice. Every pair at Charm Optical blocks 100% of UVA and UVB rays. Consider polarized lenses for extra glare protection on bright Alberta days.

POLARIZED LENSES

Polarized, Gradient, or Photochromic?

Polarized lenses cut glare from water, snow, and roads — ideal for driving and outdoor sports. Gradient lenses are darker at the top, lighter at the bottom — great for everyday wear. Photochromic lenses darken automatically in sunlight. All available with or without a prescription at our Ellerslie Road location.
