About lens reshapes
World Optic houses a state of the art lab that can take lenses from one eyeglass frame and re-shape the lenses into a new eyewear frame. If the lenses are clear, our lab technicians can be tinted or if lenses are already tinted, they can be re-tinted darker or even a different shade.
It is important to note that specific measurements must be considered when dealing with prescription eyewear. A qualified optician should be able to Identify the possibilities of a reshape, especially when dealing with multifocal lenses.

Far far away, behind the word mountains
"I honestly have not experienced better service at any optical shop in my twelve years of using corrective lenses. I can't speak for the in-person service but as an eyeglass wearer in Cambridge, MA, getting my glasses installed with nose pads all the way in California at World Optic worked out much better than anywhere I could find locally."

"Used the coupon and got my Paul Smith rimless glasses fixed when I thought they were lost for good. Was a bit suspicious about sending them through the mail, but they turned it around quickly and the fix was great. Hard to beat the price and the response. Happy boy." Michael B.
