Why do my glasses always look crooked?

Most likely due to facial asymmetry or a poorly adjusted frame. We can evaluate your fit in-office.

Can crooked glasses cause vision problems?

Yes. When lenses aren’t properly aligned, this may lead to headaches, fatigue, or blurry vision.

Do you charge for frame adjustments?

Nope! We offer free adjustments at both of our Mountain View Optometry locations.

Can you help with kids' glasses that keep going crooked?

Absolutely. We specialize in fitting and adjusting children's eyewear for comfort and durability.

Brighten, Protect, and Refresh: Why Total Eye® SPF 35 is a Must-Have

July 23, 2025

Calgary's Climate and Your Eyes

With Calgary's high altitude and over 300 days of sun each year, the delicate skin around your eyes is especially vulnerable to sun damage. Add in our dry, windy conditions, and it's no surprise many Southern Albertans develop fine lines and wrinkles around their eyes, puffiness, discoloration, skin dryness, and irritation.

Total Eye® 3-in-1 Renewal Therapy SPF 35 is the perfect solution. It brightens dark circles, reduces puffiness, smooths fine lines, and shields against harmful UVA and UVB rays, all with a gentle, mineral-based formula.

What Makes It Stand Out

This isn't just an eye cream or concealer. Total Eye® is a multitasking product made for Calgary's climate:

Mineral SPF 35 PA+++: Protects against sunburn and aging.
Hydrating Ingredients: Sodium hyaluronate delivers deep moisture, while peptides help firm and smooth the delicate eye area.
Cooling Applicator: Helps reduce puffiness on contact.
Tinted Coverage: Instantly brightens and primes the skin for makeup.

How to Use It

Use in the morning before makeup:

Apply half a pump to the applicator.
Dot and smooth around the eyes, from under-eye to brow.
Blend with fingertips.

Reapply throughout the day for added hydration and sun protection.

Perfect For an Active, Outdoor Lifestyle

Whether you're walking your dog on a bright winter morning or enjoying a patio brunch in July, Total Eye® SPF 35 keeps your eye area hydrated, protected, and refreshed. It’s safe for contact lens wearers and sensitive skin, making it a smart everyday choice.
