SINGLE VISION LENSES (2 DAY TURNAROUND):
Sometimes losing or breaking your glasses can be more than just simply inconvenient, it can be extremely distressing, especially if they’re your only prescription glasses. Imagine accidentally stepping on your lenses and no longer being able to see anything within your close and far vicinity.
Luckily if disaster strikes, we can help. Adelaide City Optometrist can take your lens order, no matter the frame and have a 2-business day turn around for all single vision lenses. We use Zeiss to manufacturer our lenses, keeping plenty of Australians employed in an Adelaide site lab during this time of financial concern. If paid upfront, we can also post your lenses directly to you. So, you only need to visit us once before getting your vision back on track.
WHAT ABOUT MY PRESCRIPTION?
If you require to order a pair of emergency glasses or lenses, you’ll still need your prescription. For glasses, we may be able to take a reading from your old lenses or you can provide us with your past script.
Unfortunately, at this time our optometrist is not conducting eye tests but only seeing emergency clients limiting the amount of contact we have in our studio. Remember, it’s to keep us all safe.
CONTACT LENSES:
If you’ve lost those pesky lenses don’t fear. We can have these replaced for you within 2 business days. If you’re an existing client, you can place your order over the phone based on your last refill or pop in to see us and order in person. Remember, if you haven’t ordered from us before, we’ll need a valid past prescription before we order your new lenses.
If paid in full, we can also have your lenses delivered directly to your door from our supplier. If wondering what happens with your health insurance rebate, we will send you a copy of your invoice and this can be sent directly to them.
