Your questions, in focus.

Everything you need to know about mailing in your frames, our Canadian-made lenses, shipping and our guarantee — answered clearly. Can't find it? We're a message away.

Getting started

Yes — that’s exactly what we do. Keep the frames you already love and we’ll fit them with brand-new prescription lenses. Order online, mail us your frames with our free prepaid label, and our licensed opticians craft your lenses in Canada — usually back at your door within 10 business days. Here’s how it works.

Lens replacement — sometimes called reglazing — means putting fresh lenses into your current frames instead of buying a whole new pair. It’s perfect when your prescription changes, your lenses get scratched, or you simply want to add sun or blue-light protection to frames you already own.

Never. Keeping your frames is the entire point: it saves you money and keeps a perfectly good pair out of the landfill. If a frame needs a small repair, our Frame Service can help.

Almost any pair — designer, vintage, sports or everyday glasses, any brand. We fit full-rim, semi-rimless and rimless frames. If a frame is cracked or especially fragile, we’ll always check with you before doing any work.

A complete pair of prescription lenses starts at $79, with optional upgrades like anti-reflective coating, blue-light filtering, transitions and tints. Buy more and save 30% on additional pairs. See pricing and start your order.

Lenses & prescriptions

Single vision, bifocal and progressive prescription lenses, plus non-prescription options. Choose clear, photochromic (transitions), blue-light filter, tinted or polarized. You can also explore single vision and bifocal options.

Yes. We craft premium progressive lenses cut precisely to your frame and prescription, for smooth vision at every distance. Progressives and other specialty lenses can take a little longer than single vision.

Anti-reflective, scratch-resistant hard coat, UV protection, blue-light filtering, photochromic transitions, polarized and tints — plus thinner, lighter high-index materials for stronger prescriptions. Browse lens add-ons.

Order first — you’re never blocked at checkout. Afterward we’ll email simple instructions to upload a photo or PDF of your prescription. Please use a valid, unexpired prescription from a licensed eye doctor.

No problem. If you don’t have your prescription, we’ll show you how to request it from your eye doctor — they’re required to release it to you. For your PD, we’ll send an easy way to measure it at home with a ruler, or we can often read it from your current lenses.

In many cases, yes — our opticians can read your existing lenses to match your prescription. A current written prescription is always most accurate, but if you no longer have one, get in touch and we’ll help.

Almost always. For higher prescriptions we offer thinner, lighter high-index lenses so your glasses stay comfortable and look great. Not sure? Send us your numbers and we’ll advise before you order.

Yes — plano (non-prescription) sunglasses, blue-light and clear lenses are all available. It’s a great way to turn frames you love into a dedicated pair of sunglasses.

Shipping & timing

After you order, we email you a free prepaid, insured shipping label. Put your frames in a small box, attach the label and drop it at any post office — we take it from there.

Most orders are back at your door within 10 business days of us receiving your frames. Progressive and specialty lenses may take a little longer, and we’ll keep you posted at every step.

Yes. Shipping is free and prepaid in both directions across Canada, and your frames are insured from the moment they leave your hands.

We proudly ship coast to coast across Canada. If you’re outside Canada, contact us and we’ll let you know what’s possible.

Absolutely. Every shipment is tracked both ways and we’ll email you updates, so you always know exactly where your glasses are.

Guarantee & returns

You’re covered by our Free Remake Guarantee. If your lenses don’t feel right within 30 days, tell us and we’ll remake them at no charge — we’re not done until you’re seeing clearly and comfortably. See our refund policy.

Because every lens is custom-made to your prescription, our first step is always a free remake to get them perfect. For full details on returns and refunds, read our Refund Policy.

We don’t bill insurers directly, but we make reimbursement easy: we provide a claim-ready, itemized receipt you can submit to your vision insurance or Health Spending Account (HSA).

It’s rare — we handle every pair with care and a licensed optician inspects them at each stage. Because every shipment is insured both ways, you’re protected in the unlikely event of damage. Just reach out and we’ll make it right.

About us

Yes. Every lens is crafted in our own Canadian lab — no overseas outsourcing and no long waits. Read our story.

We are. A licensed optician reviews, measures and inspects every single order before it ships. We began as an independent optical shop, and this is simply a better, more affordable way to serve you. More about us.

You keep frames that already fit your face, your style and your budget, you spend less, and you keep a good pair out of the landfill. Same frames you love — brand-new lenses.
