Every day we make more online purchases of essential items, and the same has happened in the world of optics. Buying prescription glasses online is simple and you can do it from home by following these steps:
Steps to buy prescription glasses online:
Step 0: First of all, select the frame you like the most. If it comes in several sizes (sizes/calibers), choose the one you prefer.
Step 1: We start with choosing our prescription.
If you only need the frame, choose the “Frame only” option.
If you want your custom prescription glasses, we start by choosing the lenses. You can choose between near, far, or progressive. The latter offers three ranges: standard progressive, wide, or maximum.
Why is there an option for non-prescription lenses? You can have glasses with non-prescription lenses (if you buy only the frame, they will come with plastic templates and the brand) for aesthetic purposes, as an accessory, or to add one of the treatments we will see next, such as the blue light filter to protect your eyes from screens.
Step 2: Choose anti-reflective coating
The standard anti-reflective coating is included in the price, which helps avoid glare and reflections. But if you also want to protect your eyes from the harmful light emitted by screens, select “Blue light protection.”
Step 3: Lens thinning
Depending on your diopters, a certain lens thinning is recommended to minimize the thickness of the lens and achieve a perfect look. Select What is lens thinning? to see our recommendation based on your prescription.
Step 4: Prescription or lens power.
Here you can upload your ophthalmologist’s prescription or your current glasses’ prescription. Don’t worry if you don’t have it handy; you can send it later via WhatsApp at 661388874 or by email to info@gafasdeoptica.com. If you don’t have a prescription but your current glasses have the same prescription, we’ve got you covered! By sending your glasses, we can determine your prescription.
That’s it—choosing your custom prescription glasses online is that quick and easy. We add one more step in case you want your prescription glasses to be sunglasses. Just choose the lens color you want.
Do you only want to change the lenses in glasses you already have? Perfect, we take care of everything. In that case, select all the steps in this product.
