my wife got awesome vision insurance and now going to a standalone optometrist and their high end frames is half the price of Costco. So, if your insurance sucks, go to Costco. If you have good insurance, you might be better off elsewhere.

Get 2 pairs so you have a backup. Go cheap. Their prescriptions change quickly

He might be a little young for this, but in a couple years look into ortho-K

Titanium frames are the most durable but you select several for durability then
