Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 3,554 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers frequently mention that the online ordering process is completely seamless, and prices are significantly more affordable compared to traditional high street opticians. People are also exceptionally pleased with the brilliant quality of the replacement lenses and the regular email updates received throughout the entire procedure.

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.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Easy, quick, excellent quality and incredibly cost effective.

I was dismayed at the price Specsavers had set for a reglaze with a minor increase in my near distance. I understood that I required varifocals, but was shocked nonetheless. I searched online for reglazers, and Lensology was an option. From the initial quote through the box to protect my lenses to the time to complete the reglaze and return my glasses was reassuring, expeditious and the price was more than fifty percent less than Specsavers. I will use them again and highly recommended Lensology to others.

Hi,

Thank you so much for your fabulous review!

We’re glad that you found the whole reglazing process easy, quick and reassuring, from your initial quote right through to receiving your glasses back. It’s especially wonderful to hear that you were so pleased with the quality and that we were able to save you more than 50% compared with your Specsavers quote.

Thank you for choosing Lensology, for putting your trust in us and for recommending us to others. We’ll look forward to helping you again in the future!

An online service I can trust!

This was my first experience with the company so everything was new, the decision making process was made easy by the well layed out online options, deciding on how many additional features I wanted to include in addition to the standard was easy. I felt confident with the online, secure payment method which included simple option choices. The postage arrangement was clear in terms of how to package my glasses with or without the prescription. The turn around time was fantastic, in no time at all I received my reglazed glasses which were glazed correctly with the option of adjustment made available if needed. Really good service from start to finish, what's not to love.

Excellent!

I chose Lensology for a Reglaze of a pair of RAYBAN frames that I had hardly worn. The whole process was very easy online and the price for single vision lenses was excellent - so much cheaper than an opticians. I was kept up to date with every step of the process by email. The re glazed glasses are perfect. It was all very impressive and I would certainly use Lensology again should the need arise.

Brilliant quality lenses

Brilliant quality lenses. I had the middle range varifocals as per usual and there are no blurred parts when I wear them. I also have the thinnest and they are excellent. I have purchased from lensology for about 15 years and would not go to anyone else for my lenses.

I just received the Transitions® XTRActive® lenses. I’ve tested the originals from Ray-Ban and a pair from a German company, and here is my verdict: they are cheaper than the originals but more expensive than the German ones. They are the best lenses at a very good price and work exactly as described—if you want a quality product, choose these. As for the seller, 5 stars for service; I highly recommend them. Best regards.
