VISION GLOBAL / US OPTICAL LAB

Your favorite frames, in a box, headed to a lab you will never visit: that is the whole objection. So here is the whole process. One technician team logs your frames on arrival and stays with the order until it ships back. And if your frames are lost or damaged while they are with us, that is our responsibility, not yours. Coverage terms [placeholder].

Choose your lenses

Pick eyeglass or sunglass, choose your lens type and options, and enter your prescription. Before anything is cut, a human reads it. Odd axis values, transposed numbers, an expired script: this is where they get caught.

RX REVIEW: HUMAN, BEFORE CUTTING FRAME: YOURS, UNCHANGED

Send us your frames

Pack your frames and ship them to the lab. Tracking covers the trip in both directions, so you can watch them the whole way.

TRACKING: BOTH DIRECTIONS LABEL: YOURS, OR PREPAID ON REQUEST

We cut, fit, inspect, return

Technicians laser-cut your new lenses, fit them to your frame, inspect the finished pair, and ship everything back to you.

SHIPS BACK: WITHIN 10–14 DAYS INSPECTION: EVERY PAIR

Polarized

Cuts the glare that bounces off roads, water, and car hoods. If you drive, fish, or spend whole days outside, pick this.

Photochromic

Darkens in sunlight, clears up indoors, and lives in everyday eyeglasses as often as anything else. One pair covers the commute, the desk, and the walk home. Nine Transitions colors, gray through purple.

Color availability depends on your lens and prescription type. You'll see your options when you order.

What's already on the lens.

Three coatings that many shops sell as add-ons. Included on every lens we cut, at no extra cost.

Anti-reflective

Kills the glare that makes screens and oncoming headlights hard on your eyes.

UV protection

Blocks UV across the lens, clear or tinted. Sun damage does not wait for sunny days.

Scratch resistance

A hardened layer that shrugs off keys, pockets, and everyday handling.

ZEISS. Hoya. Transitions. Cut in our lab.

Most replacement shops cut one house lens and stop there. We also stock optical-grade blanks from the lens makers opticians already trust, then laser-cut them to your prescription in our US lab. You choose whose glass goes in your frame when you order.

If anything happens to your frames, it becomes our problem.

  • RETURNS 45 days from ship date. One courtesy exchange per order.
  • WARRANTY 12 months on manufacturing defects: lens fabrication, coatings, frame structure.

One honest note before you order. Custom lenses are cut for your eyes alone, so lenses made to a script you typed wrong are yours to keep. If the mistake is ours, we remake the lenses. Full stop.

So double-check your numbers against your latest prescription. And if you want a second set of eyes, our team will read your script with you before you order: support@visionglobaldirect.com.

PACKED FOR THE TRIP BACK

Questions, answered straight.

Which frames qualify for new lenses?

Most metal and acetate frames take new lenses without trouble. Rimless, heavily wrapped, or unusual frames sometimes need a closer look. Send us a photo and we will tell you before you ship anything.

What happens after I order?

You ship your frames to the lab. We log them on arrival, a technician reviews your prescription, your lenses are cut and fitted, and the finished pair ships back to you with tracking.

How long will I be without my glasses?

Your finished pair ships back within 10–14 days of your frames arriving at the lab. Add shipping time each way: 10–14 business days standard or 6–9 business days express within the US.

Can I return prescription lenses?

Custom prescription lenses can't be returned or refunded: they are cut for your eyes alone and can't be reused. Non-prescription lenses can come back within 45 days, unused and in original condition. If the error is ours, we remake the lenses at no cost to you, covered by the 12-month warranty on manufacturing defects. A prescription that changes after you order counts as a new order, not a return.

What if I typed my prescription wrong?

Tell us as soon as you catch it. If your lenses are not cut yet, we fix the numbers and carry on. If they are, the policy is firm: lenses cut to the numbers you entered are yours to keep. That is why we ask you to double-check your script, and why a technician reads every prescription before cutting.

Your frames already fit. Keep them.

New custom-crafted lenses, cut in our US optical lab, fitted to the eyeglasses or sunglasses you already love.
