While you explore our extensive collection of customized eyeglass frames, you may be wondering about the process of ordering prescription glasses. Although it may initially appear complicated, placing an order for eyeglasses with us is as effortless as purchasing any other item online.
How to Order :
We understand that your first time ordering may seem intimidating, so we have developed a helpful guide to ensure you start off on the right track. Take a look at our straightforward guide to learn how you can easily place an order for eyeglasseseyeglasses at optovisuals, following just a few simple steps.
- Select Your Frames The process of buying eyeglasses online begins with choosing your frames. This step typically takes the most time since it involves a personal decision. If you already have a specific frame in mind, you can simply type it into the search bar and find the desired color. If you’re uncertain about the frame, consider the following factors:
Frame Shape Just like certain clothing styles flatter or detract from your appearance, the same applies to eyewear. Specific frame shapes can enhance your features, while others may accentuate less desirable attributes. The good news is that by considering your face shape, you can usually determine the most suitable frames for you.
Frame Size Choosing the right frame size is crucial. A frame that is too narrow can make your face appear wider, while a frame that is too wide can make your face seem narrower. Although you may opt for oversized or undersized frames for stylistic reasons, it is generally advisable to find frames that fit you well. You can easily find the proper frame size by referring to the measurements provided on the temple arm of your old glasses or the frames you try on.
Frame Color While frame color is the last aspect to consider, it plays a significant role in determining the style and overall appearance of your new eyewear. This decision is entirely based on your personal preference and what looks best on you. Most frames are available in various colors, giving you the freedom to choose the one that resonates with you. Feel free to use our color, shape, and material filters to narrow down your options and visualize how different frames complement your face using our virtual try-on feature.
- Adding Prescription to Your Glasses Once you have selected your preferred frames and lenses, the next step involves customizing them to your unique specifications by adding your prescription. For more information, watch our instructional video available here.

Choose Your Lenses While the appearance of your glasses is important, their functionality is paramount. The quality and features of your lenses greatly influence your satisfaction with your eyewear, so it’s crucial to pay close attention to the available options. Your choice of lens thickness is an important initial consideration. Refer to our lens index page for detailed information. When placing an order for eyewere, keep the following points in mind:
Visual Needs The most vital aspect of lens selection is choosing the right type to meet your visual needs. Depending on your eyes and personal requirements, you may require single-vision or multi-vision lenses, as prescribed by your optometrist.
Coatings Once you have determined the appropriate lenses for your visual needs, the next step is to choose suitable coatings that align with your lifestyle. Coatings such as anti-scratch, anti-reflection, water-repellent, and UV protection offer different benefits, protecting your eyes and glasses from various elements and daily wear. If you are purchasing sunglasses, you have even more options, including tint, gradient, and reflective lenses.
