If you are going through a stage where your prescription glasses are not effective anymore, as you need a new lens due to it changing (either due to age or due to damage), but cannot afford new spectacles at this stage.
A new way of mending that script glasses is to do what I did, i.e.: Reglaze My Specs.
In this way, you can not only keep the frame you got used to but keep the look of the glasses that you and everyone around has gotten used to but it just looks cleaner and newer than before and at a fraction of the costs especially if your frame or lens shapes are not on the market anymore.
So, how do you go about to have your glasses reglazed?
It is an easy and simple process to do this.
Just pop on to your local optometry offices, find out if they do it, and from there if they do, they will simply send your initial glasses to the company that they use for reglaze my specs and will return it to you when done.
There are some companies, that work directly with you and bypass the optometry section, by you ordering it online and then send it via post and once done they will deliver direct to you.
The process is an easy one and gives you not only a new lease of life on your lens but the frame too and is a much more affordable and hassle-free option.
The following lens types can be reglazed:
ZEISS DRIFESAFE LENSES- these improve your day and night low vision conditions by reducing the glare and the “glaring diamond” visions at night (when headlights in the dark looks like shimmering diamonds across your windscreen)
TOKAI RESONAS NEUROSCIENCE TECH VARIFOCAL – these works with your brain, to give you clearer vision across all fields, with outstanding clarity.
CLEARVIEW — This high def lenses come in premium quality but at a low price.
The companies that offer these reglazing services can do almost any and every prescription lens you might have, from those very high prescriptions to even those complicated and complex lens and frame combinations.
The online services companies even offer you a telephonic service if you have any worrying questions relating to your prescription.
So either go to your closest lens practitioner or contact your online service glazing provider and get yours done today.
