When it comes to glasses, most people tend to focus on getting new frames and lenses. However, if you have a favourite pair of glasses that you love or if you're looking to save money, reglazing your old pair can be an excellent option. Reglazing your existing glasses might be a money saver and good for the environment - here's why:
-
Cost-Effective Solution: Reglazing your old glasses can save you a significant amount of money compared to buying a completely new pair. By keeping your existing frames and replacing only the lenses, you can enjoy the benefits of updated vision without the expense of purchasing new frames. Why not turn your old glasses into a great pair of sunglasses?
-
Preserve Your Favourite Frames: Do you have a pair of glasses that perfectly complements your style or holds sentimental value? Reglazing allows you to keep and preserve those beloved frames while still achieving optimal vision. It's an ideal solution if you're emotionally attached to your eyewear or if you've invested in designer frames that you don't want to part with.
-
Customised Lens Options: Reglazing provides an opportunity to upgrade your lenses to newer and more advanced technologies. Whether you need single vision lenses, bifocals, progressives, or specialised coatings, reglazing allows you to choose the exact type of lenses that meet your unique vision requirements. Here at Very Spexy, we have a wide choice of lenses to choose from, more than most high street opticians.
-
Environmental Sustainability: In a world increasingly conscious of environmental impact, reglazing your old glasses promotes sustainability. By reusing your frames, you help reduce waste and contribute to a more eco-friendly approach to vision correction. It's a small but meaningful step towards a greener future - you can read more about our positive climate impact here.
-
Time-Saving Convenience: Getting your glasses reglazed is often a faster process than ordering new frames and lenses. Instead of waiting for a new pair to be manufactured and shipped, reglazing allows you to have your glasses ready within a short timeframe. We have our own in house lab and you can have single vision lenses fitted as soon as the very same day - in most cases we will not need to keep your frame should we order lenses for you.
-
Familiar and Comfortable Fit: Your old glasses have likely been adjusted to fit your face perfectly. Reglazing allows you to maintain the comfortable fit and feel that you're accustomed to, ensuring that you can continue wearing your glasses without any hassle or discomfort.
If your own optician has said that they cannot reglaze your own frame, that's often through their choice - why not come in and discuss your requirements with us? Not only will we help, but we encourage it!
