How we make the glasses in our labs
Read what's in this video

About this video: Our trained lab technicians use automated technology to make your single-vision glasses on-site, often in as little as 30 minutes. The video shows four steps:

  1. Frames are automatically scanned and locking pads are added so your pupillary distance is set correctly.
  2. Lenses are customized and polished on our high-tech edger for a perfect fit.
  3. Each lens is mounted into your frame and hand-inspected for quality.
  4. You walk out the same day with your new glasses.

I couldn't ask for a better place to get glasses and eye exams. The employees are very helpful and friendly and with my son just turning 18 and starting in the workforce, they took the time to find him every discount they could to help him. And he got his glasses the same day. I would recommend them to everyone.

Amazing service! Kendrick, the associate who helped me, was so kind and knowledgeable. All of the staff was wonderful with answering my questions and I was able to walk out with my glasses the same day! Highly recommended.

If I could give more stars, I would. Stanton Optical saved the day (specifically John in the La Mesa store). He was able to get me into glasses during an emergency SAME DAY! THIS is my best place for all things glasses!!!! Thanks.

First time here and had amazing service. The best part was being able to get my daughter's new glasses on the same day. We will be back!
