Can glasses be made in an hour?

When it comes to eyeglasses and sunglasses, we’re witnessing one of the best fashion and utility combos ever. Many people these days need glasses to function better, but eyewear has come a long way from being just practical. They’re fashionable, they’re polished, they’re cool, they’re funky, and they come in many designs to match each and everyone’s personal style. Shopping for a pair of frames at Occhio is a lot of fun and a true experience. We are focused on providing our customers with the latest designs that not only look good, but are made of premium materials for longevity.

Does LensCrafters still do 1 hour glasses?

Glasses in About an Hour!* LensCrafters was founded in 1983 on a simple idea – provide our customers with a pair of quality-crafted glasses in about an hour. That idea was revolutionary then, and still is today. In fact, one-hour service remains the gold standard in eyewear delivery.

Can you get glasses in the same day?

Many optometrists understand that their patients can't wait days to be able to see clearly, which is why many now offer a same-day service for new glasses and repairs. Schedule an appointment with an eye doctor near you to find out if they offer same-day services so that you can have clear vision that same day.
