This depends on your prescription and lens requirements. If you are using your own frame our turnaround time is 7 - 10 days from the time we receive your frame if you have a standard prescription and standard lens requirements. It can take a little longer for specially-worked lenses and requirements. If you are using one of our frames, our turnaround time is 7 - 10 working days from the time you place your order. Everything is located here in Australia, so our turnaround time is quite quick. Your goods are shipped back to you via Australia Post express post! If you are planning on going away, please take into consideration the above time frame, as lenses still need time to be prepared. Mistakes can happen with lenses also, so reasonable time needs to be given! Thank you!

Any frames that you have previously purchased from your Optometrist/Optical Store. A quality frame will have strength and some weight to it Frames purchased cheaply at the pharmacy or discount stores are not recommended as the metal ones do not have screws in them, which are necessary for loosening the frame to insert lenses into. The plastic ones are usually quite flimsy and don't stand being heated up too well. We need to be able to heat plastic frames up to insert lenses into them. Although these frames are not recommended to use, we are aware that they are all some people can afford and are happy to assess them and fit them if they seem appropriate. We recommend you talk to us or a frame supplier first, we will know what frames are ideal for optical lenses.
