Need Glasses Fast? Here’s How Our Same-Day Service Works
Life moves fast and waiting weeks for new glasses shouldn’t slow you down. Whether your glasses broke unexpectedly, your prescription changed, or you simply need a backup pair, Village Eyecare’s same-day glasses service is designed to get you seeing clearly as quickly as possible without compromising quality.
Same-Day Glasses Service: How It Works & Key Benefits
Unlike many optical offices that send lenses to outside labs, Village Eyecare cuts and creates lenses in-house at our own optical lab. This allows us to control the entire process from start to finish, offering faster turnaround times and exceptional accuracy.
In many cases, you can walk in for an exam and walk out the same day with your new glasses.
How the Process Works
- Eye Exam or Updated Prescription
Start with a comprehensive eye exam or bring in a valid prescription. Our doctors ensure your prescription is accurate and tailored to your vision needs. - Choose Your Frames
Our experienced opticians help you select frames that fit your face, lifestyle, and personal style—whether you need something professional, sporty, or fashion-forward. - Lenses Made In-House
Once your frame and prescription are selected, our lab technicians begin crafting your lenses right away. Because everything is done on-site, we can ensure:
- Precise measurements
- Accurate prescription alignment
- Careful quality control
- Final Fit & Quality Check
Before you leave, we perform a final inspection and custom fitting to make sure your glasses are comfortable, clear, and ready to wear.
