Kids' Glasses & Sunglasses in Fort Collins

Kids need glasses that can keep up with their lives—playground adventures, sports, school, and everything in between. At Edge Optics in Fort Collins, we carry a wide selection of children's eyeglasses and pediatric eyewear designed to be durable, comfortable, and fun to wear.

Whether your child needs their first pair of prescription glasses, an updated lens, or a backup pair for school, we'll help you find frames that:

• Fit their face properly—no sliding, pinching, or constant adjustments

• Handle daily wear and tear—flexible hinges, impact-resistant materials, and scratch-resistant lenses

• Match their personality—colors, patterns, and styles kids actually get excited about

From toddler glasses to teen frames, Edge Optics has options for every age and stage.

Why Kids' Glasses Are Different

Children's eyeglasses aren't just smaller versions of adult frames. A proper fit matters for comfort, durability, and healthy vision development.

What makes kids' glasses unique:

• Sized for smaller faces—proportioned bridges, temples, and lens widths

• Flexible, durable materials—built to bend without breaking

• Lightweight construction—so kids forget they're wearing them

• Proper lens positioning—fitted correctly for clear, comfortable sight

At Edge Optics, we take the time to measure and adjust every pair of children's glasses so your child sees clearly and feels confident wearing them.

Children's eyes are more sensitive to UV rays than adults'—and sun damage adds up over time. Quality kids' sunglasses aren't just a summer accessory; they're an important part of protecting your child's long-term eye health. In Fort Collins and Northern Colorado, where altitude increases UV exposure, sunglasses for kids are especially important.

Kids' Sunglasses: Protecting Young Eyes

What to look for in children's sunglasses:

• 100% UV protection—blocks both UVA and UVB rays

• Durable, kid-friendly frames—flexible, lightweight, and hard to break

• Good coverage—wraparound styles or larger lenses block light from the sides

• Comfortable fit—so they'll actually keep them on

At Edge Optics, we carry kids' sunglasses that combine real UV protection with styles children love.

The Kidz Zone at Edge Optics

Our Kidz Zone is designed to be a fun and engaging space where children can play and explore while waiting for their exam (or for their parents to finish their exams).

We have a variety of tactile toys, or kids can enjoy our 4 in 1 arcade games with Mortal Kombat, Pac-Man, Rampage, and Galaga. We also have coloring books, puzzles, and even a rock climbing wall! It's a place where kids of all ages can have fun and feel comfortable-just another reason why Edge Optics is not your typical eye doctor's office.
