How Your Glasses Are Made at Towne Optical

At Towne Optical, our state-of-the-art lab creates high-quality, industry-leading eyewear for all our locations. Every pair of glasses goes through a careful, hands-on process to ensure you get exceptional clarity, comfort, and style.

1. Precision Lens Creation

It all begins with choosing the right lens blanks. These start with only a clear front surface. Using advanced optical generators, we expertly shape the back of the lens, then polish it until it becomes crystal clear.

2. Premium Lens Coatings

Next, your lenses receive protective coatings—such as anti-reflective or scratch-resistant layers—for durability and better vision. Every lens is thoroughly inspected by our trained Opticians to make sure it meets our high standards.

3. Custom Shaping for Your Frame

Using an advanced edger, we cut each lens to match your exact measurements and the shape of your chosen frame. Once perfected, the lenses are securely mounted into your frames with expert care.

4. Quality Check & Final Touches

Before your glasses head to our branches, they’re cleaned, adjusted, and checked again by our Opticians. Only once they pass our final inspection are they ready for you to enjoy.

At Towne Optical, we’re proud to offer fast, reliable 1-hour service on many prescriptions—without ever compromising on quality.

Our advanced in-house lab and experienced Opticians allow us to handle even the most complex orders with precision and care. Whether you need specialized lenses, unique measurements, or intricate frame adjustments, we ensure your eyewear is crafted accurately and delivered quickly.
