NEW, EXCLUSIVE LINE OF FRAMES DELIVERS ON STYLE WHAT IT IS Krebs Optical takes pride in its status as a multi-generation family business. Their licensed opticians not only help customers select their glasses but can evaluate their prescriptions and lifestyles in order to recommend the best lens design and material for each individual. As an independent business, Krebs chooses the frame lines they wish to carry and strives to find unique, high-quality frames that can’t be found anywhere else in the area. Each year, Krebs Optical selects one new frame line to showcase. This year’s selection is called Face A Face, and Krebs and will be

the only place in Kentucky to carry the line. Everyone is invited to attend a Trunk Show on Saturday, April 13, from 10am-1pm, where customers will be able to see every frame in every color and receive 20% off (on frames and lenses) for that day only. PRE-TREATMENT/PREP Customers can come at their convenience, and no appointments are necessary. It’s best to come to the store with vision prescription in-hand. COST The exclusive lines are definitely high-end, but Krebs Optical tries to cater to every budget and individual with frames ranging in price from $65-$600. Whether a person is searching for
one-of-a-kind frames or just wants an extra pair, they will find a wide price range suitable to outfit the entire family. Krebs will also file customer insurance claims for reimbursement. RESULTS Not only will clients walk out feeling excited about their new glasses, but Krebs Optical will continue care beyond the time of purchase and repair glasses purchased at Krebs at no-cost. TIME COMMITMENT Customers vary in the amount of time they need to select their glasses. Customers are welcome to bring a friend or family member to help them decide, or you can rely on the expertise of the licensed opticians. Advertorial
