Precal

For many years we have been proud to offer specs in less than an hour, however with Precal we have changed our philosophy a bit, basically this process gives tailor made lenses for each frame, these will tend to be thinner and lighter than the equivalent lens made from a standard "stock uncut"

Each job can be individually assessed (some benefit, some don't) but most people are happy to wait a day or two knowing their specs will be as thin and light as possible.

If you don't need precal..

With the "Express" boys in town offering your specs in as little as an hour it might come as a surprise that providing we are not snowed under..

we can complete most single vision jobs in about 20-30 minutes.

If we are very busy e.g. Saturday mornings we might take a bit longer.

Bifocals and Varifocals

These are specialist lenses. As these have to be made individually we have never felt that we could achieve the desired quality by rushing the job. These are normally ready in 2-5 days

Special lenses and coatings

Again we prefer to order these as they are specialised lenses and are best prepared to order. Ready in 1-3 days on average, most within 24 hrs.

Tinting

We can tint most lenses on the premises, expect a 15 minute wait or ring up if you are in a hurry as the tint requires time to warm through.
