Have an acetate frame you love but finding that it constantly slides down your face because it doesn't fit quite properly even after getting every frame adjustment possible? No problem, we can add rocking pads & arms to your favorite frame.
DISCLOSURES
Prior to install, we will need you to upload images of your frame with at least 4 angles (specifically the nose bridge area) so we can determine if the frame will withstand the install. If we determine the frame may be easily damaged, the frame will be refused.
Please be aware, any alterations made to your frame will void your manufacturer's frame warranty (if there is one).
ETA for this service is 2-3 weeks.
Frequently Asked Questions
Who repairs the eyeglasses at The Vision Parlor?
95% of repairs are completed by our nationally ABO Certified and Licensed Optician at our in-house lab at our Optical. She has well over 16 years of experience and has fixed and crafted more than 50,000 pairs of eyeglasses. She was mentored and trained by the most skilled and experienced Optician with well over 45 years of experience prior to her entering the profession. She has continued the tradition and takes time to complete repairs the right way to meet ANSI standards and is meticulous when it comes down to the details.
For the other 5% of repairs that we are unable to repair in-house, we will send the job to our partner lab. We do not trust many with our patient's or customer's eyeglasses, so if we're willing to put them in their hands, we have confidence in their work. We will only charge labor/part fees + shipping & processing both ways if we are unable to complete the work in-house.
How long does an eyeglass repair take at The Vision Parlor?
If your eyeglasses are repairable, turn-around time is usually same day or next day. If special parts are needed, depending how long it takes for those custom or original manufactured eyeglass parts to come in, times may vary. Although the work itself can typically be completed within 1-2 business days, please allow another 7-10 business days to account for shipping times. Contact us if you have any questions.
