Homers Kids – great optics and frames, plus an optional INSURANCE AGAINST LOSS - Every Day

Homers Kids Frame & Lens Program
Our new comprehensive frame and lens package offering great optics, polycarbonate lenses, AR treatment and attractive frames featuring the popular BRATZ, SPIDERMAN and Detari frame lines with full two year warranty. Plus it’s now worry-free for parents, with Homer’s Protection Against Loss (PAL) insurance program.

1. We all know that kids lose their glasses, and parents shop around for the best deal, let alone add on extras like AR. Our PAL program is designed to help eye care professionals give their patients the confidence to invest in their kids’ eyewear. The PAL program is available for a nominal fee, and provides a one-time replacement of Stride Rite frame and lens.

IMPORTANT: The PAL program must be purchased at time of order; a one time replacement of the same frame, same Rx and same extras/coatings will be provided. ECPs will receive a Protection Against Loss certificate to pass on to their patient when frame and lens is dispensed.
