New Year, New Benefits

So you've used your insurance benefits in 2025. Guess what? Many plans roll over in January and some FSA accounts have a grace period until Mid-March! If you have purchased contact lenses at the end of the year, now may be a good time to get some new glasses. Regarding vision insurance...make sure you know if your insurance providers have changed. EyeShop accepts most vision plans including EyeMed, VSP, and Spectera as well as most major medical insurances like Medicare, UHC, Anthem, Aetna, and Medical Mutual. Plus you can maximize your benefits with EyeShop's awesome discounts. Second complete pairs of glasses are 50% off. If you purchase a year supply of contact lenses you can take 30% off of non-prescription sunglasses. Any questions? Just ask our friendly EyeShop staff.

Main Character Frames for 2026

What's trending for 2026? This year’s eyewear trends are all about personality—whether you love a barely-there look or want your frames to do all the talking. Thin, minimalistic frames are having a major moment, offering clean lines and effortless style for everyday wear. On the flip side, bold geometric shapes are stepping into the spotlight, perfect for anyone ready to make a statement. Vintage lovers, rejoice—retro cat-eye frames are back with a modern twist, bringing timeless glamour into 2026. And for those who like their style smart, tech-forward glasses are gaining traction, blending innovation with fashion-forward design. No matter your vibe, there’s a trend this year that’s made to be seen—and we’re here to help you find it.

What are your 2026 VISION Resolutions?

Let’s be honest—if your glasses are scratched, sliding down your nose, or from an era we won’t name, it’s time. Consider this your official permission slip to do better for your eyes in 2026. A new year is the perfect moment to book that eye exam you’ve been putting off and make sure your vision is actually working for you. This is also the year to level up your eyewear game. Think frames that fit your face and your personality, lenses that reduce screen strain, and prescription sunglasses that mean business. Bonus points if you grab a second pair—because one look is never enough. Clearer vision, better style, fewer headaches—these are resolutions we can get behind. Let’s make 2026 your best-looking year yet. 👓😉
