Bring your prescription
Bring us your prescription, from anywhere
If your prescription is from another office or a hospital, the optician reviews it and helps you choose your glasses. And the one we give you is yours too: take it wherever you like.
What to bring
Your prescription, on paper or in a photo
Your current glasses, so we can take measurements
Your vision plan or medical insurance card

Which prescription works
The doctor or optician tells you whether yours works or a new exam makes sense.
Glasses prescription
From any office, as long as it is current.
Contact lens prescription
We confirm it first with whoever gave it.
An old prescription
If it has expired, the doctor explains whether a new exam is needed.
Your prescription is yours
After your exam and fitting we give you a copy. You can fill it here or somewhere else, and you never have to buy anything from us to get it.
Questions about your prescription
Can I take my prescription to another place?
Yes. It's yours. We give you a copy after your exam and fitting.
Do you charge me for my prescription?
No. The prescription is part of your exam, and you don't have to buy glasses from us to receive it.
Do you accept a prescription from another state?
Generally yes. The optician reviews it with you.
