Most online lens shops are mailrooms.
They take your order. They take your money. Then they ship your frames to a lab in another state — sometimes another country — and tack on their cut.
- • Order goes to a middleman
- • Middleman ships to a lab (often out of state)
- • Lab ships back, middleman ships to you
- • You pay for every hand-off
- ✓ Order goes to our Utah lab
- ✓ Our optician cuts your lenses
- ✓ We ship them straight back to you
- ✓ You pay for lenses, not logistics

People who got their favorite frames back.
“From the time I place my order until I had my glasses with the Lenses back in hand was about two weeks. That's super quick considering even ordering glasses online from scratch takes two weeks without an extra shipping frame. Wonderful quality and works exactly as advertised. So great, will be ordering for my wife soon”
“Lensonus has completed several pairs of eyeglass lenses for me, and the quality has been very high and consistent. I've had zero issues, which is not always the case with tri-focal lenses from other suppliers. I'm very pleased with the product and service.”
“I have been very satisfied with my lenses and will soon purchase more for my back up glasses. Price, quality and service is the best. A pleasant surprise was when I received my glasses Lensonus provided me with a very nice new glass case. Thank you!”

You probably found us because…
Your scratched-up favorites
You've had the same frames for years. They fit your face. They suit your style. The lenses look like a windshield in a dust storm.
Your prescription changed
Same eyes, new numbers. New frames cost $300+. New lenses in old frames cost a lot less — and you skip the adjustment period.
You bought designer frames
You spent real money on the frames. You're not throwing them away because the lenses got tired. Reuse the frames. Refresh the lenses.
You want sunglasses too
Same prescription, sun protection. We cut polarized and Photochromic lenses for any frame you send us.
Questions, answered straight.
No fine print. No "contact us for details."
Will my frames be safe?+
Yes. Every package is insured both directions. When your frames hit our Utah lab, an optician inspects them before any work begins. If we see a crack, a loose hinge, or anything we'd want to know about — we call you first.
How long does the whole thing take?+
Most orders ship back within 5-7 business days of arriving at our lab. Progressive lenses with specialty coatings can take 7-10. We'll email you when your frames arrive, when your lenses are cut, and when they're back in the mail.
Are you actually the lab, or just a middleman?+
We're actually the lab. Every lens is cut, edged, and fit by our optician team in Utah. Nothing gets outsourced. That's the whole point — fewer hands, lower price, better quality control.
What if my new lenses don't fit?+
30-day satisfaction guarantee. If something's off — fit, prescription, coating, anything — send them back and we'll re-cut them or refund you. We'd rather fix it than leave you squinting.
What kind of frames do you work with?+
When purchasing a frame, please make sure it is RX-compatible (able to accommodate prescription lenses). If you are unsure, email us a picture of the frame, and we will confirm whether it will work.
Can you make sunglasses lenses?+
Yes. Polarized and photochromic — both with your prescription. Same frame, two pairs of lenses if you want.
Do you do progressives?+
Yes. We make digital free-form progressives and standard progressives. If you've worn progressives before, send us your old measurements and we'll match them.
What about high prescriptions?+
We cut lenses for most prescriptions up to ±20.00 SPH and ±6.00 CYL. For strong prescriptions, we automatically upgrade you to a thinner, lighter lens so they sit comfortably in your frame — nothing extra for you to pick.
Do I need a current prescription?+
Yes — and it needs to be unexpired (under 1-2 years depending on your state). You can type it in during checkout or upload a photo of your prescription card. Don't have your PD? We'll show you how to measure it at home in 60 seconds.
Do you accept insurance?+
We don't bill insurance directly, but we provide itemized receipts you can submit for out-of-network reimbursement. Most FSA and HSA cards work at checkout.
How much do I save versus my optical shop?+
Customers tell us 40-60% on average. A pair of progressives that runs $400+ at a retail optical chain is $199 with us — same lens materials, same coatings, made by opticians with twice the experience.
What if I don't know what coatings I need?+
Anti-reflective, scratch-resistant, and 100% UV protection are standard on every order. Add our Digital lens if you stare at screens, Photochromic if you don't want to swap glasses outdoors, or our Light Sensitivity / Migraine lenses if you need them.
Do you ship outside Utah?+
Yes — anywhere in the United States. Free shipping both directions. International orders aren't supported yet.
Can I talk to a real person?+
Yes. Email, chat, or phone. You'll reach our Utah team — not a call center. If you need a licensed optician on the line, we have those too.
Why replace lenses instead of buying new glasses?
The frames are the hard part. The fit. The bridge width. The way they sit on your nose, not someone else's. Most people try on dozens before finding a pair that works — and once they do, they stick with them for years.
The lenses are the easy part. They scratch. They smudge. Your prescription drifts. Coatings wear. None of that means the frames are done.
At LensOnUs, we make replacement prescription lenses for the frames you already own. Our Utah lab cuts single vision, progressive, and sunglasses lenses to fit almost any frame — designer, vintage, sport, or off-the-shelf. The result: you keep the look you love, and you spend a fraction of what a new pair would cost.
How replacement lenses work
You configure your order online — lens type, prescription, and any lens treatment. We mail you a prepaid, insured shipping kit. You pop your frames in and drop the box at any carrier. When the frames arrive in our Utah lab, an optician inspects them, surfaces and edges your new lenses, fits them to your frame, and ships everything back to you. Most orders ship back within 5-7 business days.
No appointment. No waiting room. No upsell at the register. Just the lenses you ordered, made by people who care whether they're right.
