HOW DO I ORDER MY GLASSES WITH SPECKYFOUREYES® ? |
|
| |
Ordering glasses from SpeckyFourEyes® is simple and safe. All you need is your prescription. Your Optician has to provide you with a copy by law (UK Opticians Act 1989). Please note that just because you had your eyes tested at your regular Opticians it does not mean that you have to buy your glasses from them. Instead, have your eyes tested, let us know your prescription and save money!
|
|
 |
 |
HOW DO I OBTAIN MY PRESCRIPTION ? |
|
| |
By law, your Optician must provide you with a clear, legible copy of your prescription after an eye test, and you should not be subjected to any pressure to buy glasses from them.
|
|
 |
 |
HOW CAN SPECKYFOUREYES® CHARGE SUCH LOW PRICES ? |
|
| |
Simple. We do not have to finance expensive high street properties or pay for the upkeep of numerous expensive eye testing equipment. We do not offer advice relating to Optical issues, we simply make high quality glasses for you using your very own prescription.

HOW MANY PAIRS IS IT ADVISABLE TO BUY ? |

| |
It’s up to you. You can buy a spare pair – you must admit, at our prices you can afford to. We do however recommend that you change your glasses every time your prescription changes. It is important that you have your eyes checked by your Optician at least every 2 years.

These options are available in the ordering process. We also offer Anti Reflection (AR) coatings, Scratch Resistant/Hard Coatings, UV Coatings and sunglasses tints.

|
|
 |
 |
WHAT SEGMENT SHAPE DO SPECKYFOUREYES® USE IN THE BIFOCAL LENSES ? |

We use D28 Bifocal lenses as standard. These are 28mm wide ‘D-shaped’ segments that are positioned 3mm below the centre of the lens and horizontally are centred on your PD (Pupillary Distance). If you would like them positioned differently please state this on your order.
|

 |
CAN I USE MY CONTACT LENS PRESCRIPTION TO ORDER GLASSES FROM SPECKYFOUREYES® ? |
|
| |
No. Your contact lens prescription may look the same as your spectacle prescription but they may have small differences. You must have an eye test and a prescription issued for use with glasses, which is less than 2 years old to be able to order from SpeckyFourEyes®.
|
|
 |
 |
WHAT IS MY PD AND HOW DO I MEASURE IT ? |
|
| |
PD is the distance from the centre of one pupil to the centre the other (the pupil is the black spot in the middle of your eye). If this measurement is not on your prescription please call your Opticians and they will give it to you. Most Optical Stores will measure it for you in under a minute at no cost. The standard Distance PD is set to 63mm by our Dispensing Opticians. The standard Near PD is set at 60mm and the standard Intermediate PD is set at 61mm.

CAN SPECKYFOUREYES® READ MY PRESCRIPTION OFF MY EXISTING GLASSES ? |

| |
Yes - providing that your original prescription for those glasses is less than 2 years old. You must send your glasses accompanied with a mail order form to: www.SpeckyFourEyes.com Ltd, PO BOX 908, BD1 9AQ. There is a £10 charge for this service. We will return your glasses to you as soon as we have examined your lenses.
|

 |
 |
CAN YOU RE-GLAZE MY EXISTING FRAME ? |
|
| |
Yes we can. more info >>
|
|
 |
 |
WHAT DO THE FRAME MEASUREMENTS MEAN ? |
|
| |
The best way to get the right frame size is to look at the dimensions from a pair of glasses you currently own. They do not need to be exact, but the closer they are the more likely your new glasses will be equally comfortable. On the frame itself you will usually find three measurements, the first two are separated by a square or rectangle.
