Single vision FAQs

What is a single vision prescription?

A single-vision prescription corrects one type of vision issue, providing clarity for either near or far sight. It addresses four common vision problems: nearsightedness (myopia), where objects in the distance appear blurry and are corrected with a negative (-) prescription; farsightedness (hyperopia), where close-up objects are hard to see and are corrected with a positive (+) prescription; astigmatism, which causes blurred vision due to an irregularly shaped cornea and is corrected with cylindrical lenses; and presbyopia, an age-related condition that makes it difficult to focus on nearby objects, usually requiring reading glasses or a prescription with near correction.

How do I upload or submit my single vision prescription?

You can upload, email, or manually enter your prescription details on the website. Check out the complete guide here: How To Order Prescription Lenses Online.

Can I send my prescription later?

Yes you can. Just email us your prescription after purchasing. Your order will not be shipped without receiving your prescription first.

Is it okay to wear single vision glasses all the time?

Definitely. Some people wear their single-vision glasses only when needed, like for reading or driving, but you can wear them all day if preferred.

How do I know if I need single vision glasses?

If you have difficulty seeing clearly at either a distance or up close, a single-vision prescription may be right for you.

Can I get single vision glasses with any frame style?

Yes, all frame styles are available with single-vision lenses.

Progressive vs single vision lenses: what's the difference?

Progressive lenses correct near, intermediate, and distance vision in one seamless lens, ideal for presbyopia. While single vision lenses have a uniform prescription for either distance or near vision.

How much do single vision lenses cost?

Prices vary based on the brand, lens material, and added treatments. To see the final cost, choose a frame and customize your lenses.
