GLASSES have come a long way from being something you simply need to see clearly.
Today, they can be one of the most distinctive parts of your personal style – and Letterkenny optician Andrea Devins is encouraging customers to embrace their eyewear rather than simply settle for it.
Think about how often your glasses are part of the way people see you. Whether you’re meeting someone for the first time, heading out for dinner, or spending much of your working day on video calls, they can be one of the most noticeable things about your appearance.
When you’re sitting on a Teams or Zoom call, they may quite literally be one of the only parts of your outfit the other person sees.
We put thought into our clothes, our hair and our accessories, so why should our glasses be any different?
The right frame can completely change the way your face looks. It can add personality to a simple outfit, bring a sense of sophistication to your look, or make a bold statement before you’ve even said a word.
That is why eyewear styling is such an important part of the experience at Andrea Devins Opticians in Letterkenny.
Eyewear you won’t find everywhere
Rather than offering the same frames found in many high-street opticians, Andrea Devins has carefully curated a collection of niche, luxury and distinctive eyewear, with exclusive frames and brands that you simply won’t find in other opticians.
Quality and individuality are central to the collection. The aim isn’t to give customers hundreds of similar frames to choose from – it is to offer something different.
And choosing something different is only part of it. Knowing what actually suits you is where expert styling comes in.
Andrea Devins takes a personalised approach to eyewear, considering your facial features, colouring, personality, lifestyle and individual style when advising on frames.
“We believe glasses should be something you love wearing,” says Andrea. “They are such an important part of your look, so we take the time to advise you on the shapes, colours and styles that suit you best.”
That time is another important part of the experience. Comprehensive eye examinations are given 45 minutes, allowing enough time to properly understand each patient’s vision, lifestyle and individual requirements before moving on to choosing eyewear.
It is a very different approach to simply picking a frame from a display.
The practice’s focus on quality and customer experience has also been recognised, having been named Optician of the Year at the Highland Radio Customer Service Awards in both 2023 and 2024.
For Andrea, the idea is simple: your glasses aren’t just there to help you see – they are part of how you look, how you present yourself and how people see you.
Your glasses are one of the first things people notice. Make them count.
