More about our reglaze service:

The reglaze service simply means inserting new lenses in a frame that you currently use. Our customers use this service in the following circumstances:

  • a)Change in prescription - If it has been over two years since you have had your eyes tested, we strongly recommend a visit to the optometrist. If your prescription has changed and you need new lenses, we can glaze new lenses in your frame.
  • b)Broken or damaged lenses - Well, we’ve all ended up doing silly things like sitting on our glasses or damaging them due to some kind of carelessness! Please do not worry. Our online glasses reglaze service is cheaper than high street optical stores. We will glaze new lenses in your frames and help you see clearly again.
  • c)Existing lenses don’t feel clear and seem to offer distorted vision - Try us out. The quality of our lenses is outstanding and we only reglaze glasses on Essilor machines. It is because of the confidence we have in the quality of our prescription lenses, that we can offer a 100% guarantee on our reglaze service.

Being one of New Zealand's leading online eyeglasses retailer, we offer optical lenses for every use. If you use your glasses only for one purpose i.e. distance or reading use, you will only need single vision lenses. Alternatively, if you are over 40 and have been advised bifocal or multifocal lenses, we offer these lenses too.

  • a) Single vision lenses - are used either for distance or for reading. If you read your prescription carefully, the optometrist would have clearly marked and mentioned the type of lenses required. Sometimes, the opticians write SV lenses - this means that you require single vision lenses.
  • b) Bifocal lenses - If your prescription mentions that you need glasses for both, distance as well as reading use, you need bifocal or multifocal/progressive lenses. Bifocal lenses have a line that clearly differentiates the distance area from the reading area. The only downside of bifocal lenses is that they show off our age, because these glasses are mostly recommended over the age of 40. Instead of suggesting bifocal lenses, we suggest reglazing your frames with multifocal/progressive lenses.
  • c) Multifocal/progressive lenses - Multifocal lenses are also called progressive or varifocal lenses. These lenses are required if you need glasses for both, distance as well as reading use. If you are over 40, there is a high chance that you have been prescribed these lenses.
  • d) Computer lenses - Use digital devices for over 3 hours a day? We can reglaze computer lenses, also known as digital lenses in your existing frames. You will see this option during the checkout process.

Your glasses will be reglazed at our lab in Sydney. Single vision lenses are normally posted out within 5-7 business days after we receive the frame/s at our lab in Sydney. Reglazing Bifocal and Multifocal lenses takes approximately 14 business days.

Sure! If you are in Johnsonville, you can visit us at Optically Suite 7711 Level 1, 6 Johnsonville Road Johnsonville, Wellington 6037, New Zealand.

Please use a ruler or a measuring tape to carefully mark and measure the distance between your pupils on the lenses. Alternatively, you can also contact your optician to provide you with the same.

Yes, it’s easy. All you need to do is select the type of frame you would like to reglaze from the options mentioned and proceed with placing your order. You will see all the types of lenses we offer during the checkout process.

It’s simple. We are the only optical dispenser to offer a 100% money back guarantee. This means that if you are not happy with the new lenses glazed in your frame, simply call us and we will sort you out or give you a full refund. Our customers trust us owing to the quality and money back guarantee we offer on every pair of eyeglasses we reglaze.

We reglaze all types of frames. Very often, we have reglazed frames that high street optical stores have refused to reglaze. This is owing to our expertise in the optical industry. If you are concerned about the condition of your frame, pop it in the post. We will verify the condition of the frame and undertake the reglaze service only if we are confident that we can do a great job. If for any reason, we are unable to reglaze your eyeglasses, we will post them back to you at no additional cost.

We are experts in our field and breakage is extremely rare, we also send all orders through a tracked delivery service to ensure they are not misplaced. Unfortunately, we cannot cover the value of your glasses in the case of damage or loss. We can offer a similar/like-for-like frame at half the price from our website as a replacement or you can send another frame to be reglazed and we will cover the shipping cost. If you opt not to proceed with the order, we will refund you in full for your order.

Yes, we do reglaze sunglasses as well. We can have new prescription lenses reglazed in your sunglasses or even reglaze them with plain tinted lenses. Even the colour of tint can be matched to make it look like your original pair.

Yes we certainly do. If you need new prescription lenses in Bose sunglasses, we can have this glazed for you. Over the last 4 months, we have glazed prescription lenses in hundreds of Bose sunglasses. Our lens glazing specialists are experts in reglazing prescription lenses in both, the Alto Bose wayfarers as well as the classic round Rondo Bose sunglasses.

Advice when you select new prescription lenses in Bose sunglasses - We suggest that you opt for thin lenses when selecting your prescription lenses for Bose sunglasses. This is vital because the groove holding the lenses is narrow and if the prescription is strong (above +/- 2.00) the prescription lenses may not fit within the groove.

Note that we can also match the colour of the tint on the Bose sunglasses. If you would like us to do so, simply add this information in the 'extra information' box or mention this when you post your Bose sunglasses to us.

Yes, we certainly do! We replace prescription lenses in Ray Ban and many other designer frames and sunglasses. Optically is a trusted eyewear store for good reason. Here we can even replace lenses in Oakley frames and several other sporty glasses frames sunglasses.

Please place your reglaze order online and then send the frames to Optically Suite 7711 Level 1, 6 Johnsonville Road Johnsonville, Wellington 6037, New Zealand. Please mention your order number and name clearly before sending the frames out.

Note: Kindly request a signature on delivery for your package, as we cannot be held responsible for the loss of your item if it has not been signed for by us.
