Written by the company

Lensology is the UK’s leading specialist for reglazing glasses — fitting new prescription lenses into frames you already own. If your prescription has changed or your lenses are scratched, there’s no need to buy new frames. We offer a cost-effective, expert alternative trusted by thousands across the UK and beyond. While High Street opticians often discourage reglazing to push a new frame sale, we’re built around the opposite philosophy: keep the frames you love, save money, and get better service. Lensology brings together affordable online pricing with the personal, one-to-one care you’d expect from an experienced optician. Every customer speaks directly with an adviser who has real, hands-on optical experience. We’re also the UK leaders in prescription and non-prescription lenses for Meta smart glasses — including Ray-Ban Meta and Oakley Meta — and we ship internationally. For those who prefer a face-to-face visit, our Watford showroom is open for reglazing consultations or browsing our curated designer frames and sunglasses. Premium lenses, great prices, proper customer service. That’s why people choose Lensology.

After a couple of days with new prescription varifocals, I am very happy with the quality of work. The lenses transition well and are comfortable to wear. Also, the cost of reglazing of my glasses is incredibly good value compared with the quote from my usual opticians.

Better than the originals, by far!

Ray-Ban Meta 2 Smart Glasses Review
I bought my Ray-Ban Wayfarer Meta 2 smart glasses directly from Ray-Ban and, overall, I have found them brilliant.
Original Lenses
The only real drawback was the grey transition lenses. In my experience, they barely worked as sunglasses and did not provide the level of tint I expected.
Replacement Lenses
I chose brown transition lenses from Lensology, and the improvement has been very noticeable. The difference is stark: they perform much better in bright conditions and now work extremely well as sunglasses.
Fitting Experience
The replacement lenses were a bit fiddly to fit, but once they were in place, they looked great and transformed the glasses overall.

Hi Martin,

Thank you so much for your fantastic review!

We're elated to hear how much of an improvement you’ve found with your new brown Transitions lenses in your Ray-Ban Meta 2 smart glasses. It's fantastic to know they’re performing so much better in bright conditions and giving you the level of tint you were hoping for.

It's wonderful to hear that you've found the replacement lenses such a significant improvement over the originals.

Thank you for choosing Lensology and for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We truly appreciate your support and hope you enjoy your Meta glasses even more with their new lenses!

Kindest regards,
Barry

Hi William,

We have an online service for placing an order online which you could have used- You are not obligated to upload any prescription at the time of ordering either.

You had chosen to use our pack request system to send the glasses in for a recommended quotation which we sent you today.

You had emailed over a prescription via a different email address and different order number several months ago. If you ordered via a different email, this would classify you as a different customer file on our database.

We spoke to you today, saved your prescription onto file, sent your quote and now you have decided to leave this review. The email we sent has the link to your quote. You are supposed to open up the link to open the quote so when you say there is no price, this seems an odd conclusion to reach when we have advised otherwise.

In light of what has transpired, we think this reviews seems misplaced which at worst would be a misunderstanding. We have tried calling you to clear this up on top of this but haven't been able to get through to you either. We are trying to help you with this so I sincerely hope you would allow us to do this and reconsider the statement you have put here.

Kind Regards
Neil

Great customer support

The frames i sent to have replacement lenses fitted were sports frames and required variafocal lenses with a mirrored finish, the time frame i was initially quoted was between two and four weeks, this was an issue as i wanted them for a holiday in three weeks time. I hadnt heard anything after two weeks so contacted the help line who arranged for them to be with me the day before my holiday and they even arranged for them to be returned special delivery to ensure i received them in time. Excellent quality lenses and amazing customer service. Thankyou and would highly recommend

Hi Paul,

Thank you so much for your wonderful review!

We're delighted to hear that, despite the tighter turnaround required for your sports frames with varifocal mirrored lenses, our team was able to make sure your glasses reached you in time for your holiday.

We completely understand how important it was to have them with you, so we're pleased we could arrange the special delivery to ensure they arrived the day before you travelled. It's wonderful to hear that you're also so happy with the quality of the finished lenses.

We'll be sure to pass your kind words on to the team. Thank you for your generous recommendation and for choosing Lensology! We hope you had a fantastic holiday with your new lenses!

Warm regards,
Barry

Great result...

Good service, glasses came back looking like new. I had the extra clean and service so very happy with the result. The new lenses are Transitions, total cost £130 great value considering Vision Express quoted £200.
My only slight criticism is the delivery time suggests just a couple of days for standard lenses with their fast track service - but they still took 7 days, 10 from post to delivery. Not a problem for me but if you're expecting fast it could be! Overall I'm very happy
NOTE:
following the reply from Barry, I'd suggest you check your own website for accuracy as GEN S grey ULTIMA is listed as 1-3 days

Hi Grant,

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a detailed review.

We're glad to hear your glasses came back looking like new and that you're very happy with the Transitions lenses and Extra Clean & Service. It's also great to hear you felt they offered excellent value compared with the quote you received from Vision Express.

We appreciate your feedback regarding the turnaround time. Just to clarify, our standard turnaround for single-vision clear ULTIMA lenses in stock is 1–3 working days with our priority service. However, the ULTIMA Transitions lenses you selected have a longer turnaround of 5–6 working days with priority service, as compared to our standard in-stock clear lenses.

We're pleased that the longer turnaround wasn't a problem on this occasion and, most importantly, that you're very happy with the finished glasses.

Thank you again for choosing Lensology and for your recommendation! We look forward to serving you again and hopefully earning the missing one star!

Kind regards,
Barry

I had a really positive experience with Lensology

I had a really positive experience with Lensology. I took in my own frames along with my prescription to have the lenses fitted, and the whole process was so easy and straightforward.
The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and everyone was friendly, helpful and professional. I was served by Sunny, who was lovely and made me feel completely at ease. Nothing was too much trouble.
The price was fantastic too – I paid around half of what I would have expected to pay at either Boots or Specsavers, which made the experience even better.
I’m really pleased with the service, the finished glasses and the value for money. I would definitely recommend Lensology to anyone looking for friendly service, quality and great prices.
Thank you, Sunny and the Lensology team.

Exceptional Service. I’ve used Lensology on two occasions now. They deglazed my scratched Ray Bans and another pair. Both were total write offs. Their service was quick with informative emails along the way.

Great business

Great business, was cheaper than purchasing new prescription lenses. Plus it repurposed an old frame which I would have otherwise thrown away/recycled. Queries were dealt with quickly, the ordering process was easy and clear to follow. The turn around & shipping was within the outlined timescale. Would use this company again

Hi Emily,

Thank you so much for your fantastic review!

It's so wonderful to know that you found Lensology to be such a great-value alternative to purchasing new prescription glasses. Glad that our reglazing allowed you to give your existing frame a new lease of life rather than having to throw it away.

We're also pleased that you found the ordering process clear and straightforward, and that your queries were dealt with quickly. It's great to hear your glasses arrived within the outlined turnaround and shipping timescales too.

Thank you for choosing Lensology and for your kind recommendation. We're thrilled to hear you'd use us again and look forward to helping you with your next pair!
