How it works

  1. 1

    Build your lenses

    Pick your lenses, then enter your prescription: type it in, upload a photo or email it. Include your PD (pupillary distance).

  2. 2

    Mail your frame

    We email you a prepaid mailing label. Pack your frame in a corrugated box so it is not crushed in transit (not an envelope or a shoe box).

  3. 3

    We fit, verify and return it

    Our lab fits your lenses, checks them against your prescription and ships your frame back to you.

Lens options

  • Single vision, progressive and lined bifocal (eyeglasses)
  • Polarized, mirrored and solid or gradient tints
  • Transitions and XTRActive light-adaptive lenses
  • Eyeglasses: polycarbonate, Trivex +$40, 1.67 high-index +$80, 1.74 high-index +$120
  • Anti-glare, scratch-resistant and anti-fog coatings

Wrap and sport frames

Most wrap and sport frames take prescriptions up to +/-6.00 right in the frame. Stronger prescriptions go into an Rx insert behind the lenses.

“Got the new lenses Grant. Thank you, they are great! Good as the originals, far better than my Costco lenses.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you put prescription lenses in any frames?

Almost any. We fit prescription lenses into most full-rim and semi-rimless sunglasses and eyeglasses, including designer, sport and vintage frames. If your frame is very delicate or damaged, we contact you before we start.

Do you return my original frames?

Yes. Your frames come back to you with the new prescription lenses fitted by our lab.

What lens options do you offer?

Single vision and progressive lenses, polarized, mirrored, tinted and light-adaptive (Transitions, XTRActive) options, in polycarbonate, Trivex or high-index, with anti-glare, scratch-resistant and anti-fog coatings.

How do I send you my frames?

We email you a prepaid mailing label. Pack your frame in a corrugated box so it is not crushed in transit (not an envelope or a shoe box). We email you when they arrive and again when they ship back.

How long does it take?

7-10 business days after your frames arrive. Mirror coatings add about 5 business days.
