It's one of the first things people ask, and the honest answer is: it depends on the lenses. Single vision Basic single vision lenses are usually the quickest, and we do offer same-day turnaround in some cases. Progressives and high-index More complex lenses, like progressives or thin high-index lenses, generally take longer to produce.

People are often surprised when we tell them this. A good pair of sunglasses with a loose hinge or a bent arm doesn't need to sit in a drawer.

Your prescription changed but your frames are still in great shape. You can keep them. Here's what to expect when you bring them in. Step 1: Check the frame We look at the frame's condition first, the hinges, the screws, how it sits on your face. If there's something to tighten or adjust, we'll do that too.

Plenty of our customers are seniors, and we know getting to an optical store isn't always easy. So we offer two ways to work with us. In the store Come to our store on Wonderland Road South.

Our two-pair package starts at $249 with single vision lenses and scratch coating. Some people stop right there, and that's perfectly fine. Others want a few extras.

Helpful for night driving and computer work, and it makes your glasses look better because people see your eyes instead of reflections. Thinner lenses Fo

Not every glasses problem is a big repair. A lot of the time it's something small that's been bugging you for weeks. Small things we fix Glasses that slide down your nose Frames that sit crooked Arms that pinch behind your ears Missing or worn nose pads Loose screws Adjustments, nose pad replacements and fit corrections are part of what we do. Often it only takes a few minutes. Didn't buy them from us? That's okay. Even if you got your glasses somewhere else, you're welcome t

Your prescription decides a lot of this, but people still get confused by the terms. Here's the plain version. Single vision One prescription across the whole lens. It corrects one distance, either far away or up close for reading. This is what's included in our two-pair package starting at $249. Bifocal Two prescriptions in one lens, usually distance on top and reading at the bottom, with a visible line between them. Progressive Also called no-line multifocals. The lens grad

Paying up front and waiting to get reimbursed is a pain. For a lot of people it's the reason they put off getting new glasses. We'd rather make that part simple.

If your frame cracks but the lenses are still in good shape, you may not need new lenses at all. In a lot of cases we can fit your existing lenses into a new frame. How it goes Bring in the broken frame and the lenses. We'll look at the lens shape and size and help you find a frame from our selection that they'll work with. Then we fit and adjust everything so it sits right. We had a customer recently who walked in with exactly this problem and left about 30 minutes later wit

One of our customers came in holding a lens in one hand and a cracked frame in the other. His only backup was a pair of sunglasses. We got his lenses fitted into a new frame in about 30 minutes, but it's a good reminder of how stuck you can be with just one pair. When people wish they had a second pair Glasses get sat on or stepped on A pair gets left at work or at a friend's place An arm snaps on the way out the door You want something different for work and for weekends Mak

Progressive lenses are usually where glasses get expensive. If you need help seeing far away and up close, you've probably noticed that. So we put together a package to make it easier.

You've had your eye exam, the optometrist hands you a prescription, and now you need glasses. A lot of people don't realize you can take that prescription to any optical store you like. You're not locked in to where you had the exam. How it works at our store We don't perform eye exams. We focus on the part that comes after: helping you pick frames that suit your face and your prescription, explaining your lens options in plain terms, and fitting the glasses properly so they'
