Ways To Order
How to Order Glasses Online
1. Explore Our Lens and Coating Options
First, take some time to familiarise yourself with our range of lens types, thicknesses, finishes, and coatings. By understanding the available options, you can make an informed decision and choose the lenses that best suit your vision needs and lifestyle.
2. Select Your Frame Type
Next, find the image that best matches the frame you would like to have reglazed. We offer three main frame styles, so simply select the option that matches your glasses:
- Full-rim frames
- Semi-rimless frames
- Rimless frames
3. Choose Your Lens Type
Once you have selected your frame type, choose the lenses you require. Depending on your prescription and vision needs, you can select from the following options:
- Single Vision
- Bifocal
- Varifocal
4. Enter Your Prescription Details
After choosing your lens type, proceed to the prescription section.
- Single Vision or Bifocal: Simply click Add Prescription to continue with your order.
- Varifocal: You will be presented with three lens options: Silver, Gold, and Platinum. Compare the available options and choose the one that best meets your requirements. For further guidance, please refer to our Lens Info section.
Select Your Prescription Requirements
Next, select the specific lens option that matches your vision needs:
- Single Vision: Choose Distance, Intermediate, or Reading lenses, depending on your requirements.
- Bifocal or Varifocal: Select the appropriate option based on your prescription and vision needs.
5. Choose Your Lens Thickness
Once you have selected your prescription requirements, you can choose the most suitable lens thickness. We offer four options to accommodate different prescriptions and preferences:
- Standard: 1.5
- Thin: 1.6
- Thinner: 1.67
- Thinnest: 1.74
Generally, higher-index lenses can be made thinner for the same prescription. However, the most suitable option will depend on your prescription and frame.
6. Select Your Lens Finish
After choosing your lens thickness, select the finish that best suits your lifestyle. We offer the following options:
- Clear: Ideal for everyday vision without a tint.
- Tinted: Adds colour to your lenses. For more details, please refer to our FAQs.
- Photochromic: These lenses adjust to changing light conditions, becoming darker or lighter as needed.
- Polarised: These lenses reduce glare from reflective surfaces, making them particularly useful for outdoor activities.
Consider how and where you use your glasses most often before making your final selection.
7. Choose Your Lens Coating
In addition to selecting your lens finish, you can choose a coating to suit your requirements. The available options are:
- Hard Coat
- HMC
- HMC+
- HMCB
Each coating offers different features and benefits. Therefore, we recommend visiting our Lens Info section before making your choice, so you can select the most appropriate option for your needs.
8. Upload a Photo of Yourself Wearing Your Glasses
Next, upload a photo of yourself wearing your current glasses. This allows our team to assess the condition of your frames and identify any measurements that may be required.
For example, the photo can help us assess pupillary distance (PD) and bifocal or varifocal fitting heights. As a result, we can better understand your existing glasses before proceeding with your reglazing order.
9. Upload Your Prescription
Once you have provided your photo, upload a copy of your current prescription. This is an important step because it helps us ensure that your new lenses correspond to your vision requirements.
Please make sure your prescription is clear and legible before submitting it.
10. Add to Basket and Complete Payment
After selecting your lens options and uploading the required information, review your order carefully. Once you are happy with your selections, add the items to your basket and proceed to checkout to complete your payment.
11. Post Your Glasses to Us
After completing your online order, carefully package your glasses and post them to Cheshire Reglaze. Remember to include a copy of your receipt so that we can identify your order when your glasses arrive.
12. Stay Updated on Your Order
Once we receive your glasses, our team will begin the necessary work. Meanwhile, we will keep you informed about the progress of the manufacturing process, so you know what to expect.
Receive Your Completion Confirmation and Tracking Details
Finally, once your new lenses are ready, we will send you a completion confirmation along with tracking details for your delivery. You can then follow your parcel’s progress until your glasses arrive.
13. Enjoy Your Reglazed Glasses!
Once your glasses have been delivered, you can enjoy your new lenses in your existing frames. We aim to make the reglazing process as straightforward as possible, from selecting your lenses to receiving your finished glasses.
