FAQs
How fast are same-day glasses?
Most single-vision pairs are ready in about 30–90 minutes once you’ve chosen a frame and we’ve confirmed eligibility. Orders near cut-off times may be next-day.
Which prescriptions qualify?
Standard single-vision powers (within typical stock ranges). High index, progressives, prism, or specialty lenses usually require ordering.
What’s the cut-off time?
Same-day work is best started one hour before closing. After that, we’ll aim for next-day pickup.
Can you edge lenses into my own frame?
Often yes if the frame is in good condition; we’ll inspect it in-store. There is a $10 fee to use your own frame which protects you against breakage.
Do you offer price transparency and warranty?
Yes — clear pricing in-store and a local warranty on workmanship and fit.
