Glasses

All you need to get started when ordering your eyeglasses online is to have your prescription ready. You will need to enter these details before selecting your lens options.

Also, keep in mind if there are specific requirements you will need for your glasses. This includes lens coatings such as a blue light filter, which is a must if you spend long hours working on a computer.

You might need more durable lens options as well if you play sports such as volleyball or cricket, as this will ensure your glasses are better protected during times on the field.

For best results in terms of lens thickness, check out the ‘thinning’ section in the lens options selection menu before placing an order, as there are several options available, from standard to thinnest.

Simply upload your prescription directly on our website when placing your order for your prescription glasses. If you prefer, you can also enter your details manually, or simply include your optometrist’s contact details – we will be in touch with them to get your prescription details.

The best way to guarantee a good fit is to measure the distance between your pupils and provide your information when you select the frames you want. This will ensure your glasses fit and have the right specs.

You can also check out our blog for extra information about glasses measurements.

Together with a wide variety of designer frames, Lenses Direct offers several customisations that you can choose from on single vision lenses. These include lens options such as anti-glare coatings, blue light filter, sunglass tinting and more.

We know how important it is to receive your eyewear as soon as possible. Delivery usually takes 3–8 working days (5–10 for prescription glasses), with a guarantee that your glasses will be shipped with the utmost care. This includes padded boxes that will protect your lenses and frames, ensuring your prescription glasses arrive in perfect condition at your delivery address.

You certainly have the option of ordering a frame only. You can then take your new frame to your local optometrist and have lenses fitted there if you prefer.
