How it works
Three steps to your new glasses
1
Choose a frame
Browse men's, women's, kids' and safety frames. Pick a color and a size. The size is printed inside the temple arm of glasses you already own.
2

3
Pay with PayPal
Check out with your PayPal account or a debit or credit card through PayPal. We email you when your glasses ship.
Single vision only
Reading your prescription
Single vision lenses have one power across the whole lens, for distance or for reading. We use SPH, CYL and AXIS for each eye, plus your PD. If your prescription lists an ADD for bifocals or progressives, we can't fill it yet.
Example prescription
| Eye | SPH | CYL | AXIS | ADD |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| OD (right) | -2.25 | -0.75 | 180 | — |
| OS (left) | -2.00 | -0.50 | 175 | — |
PD 63 · Single vision: no ADD, no prism.

Before you order
How much are your glasses?
Everyday frames are $79 and prescription safety glasses are $149. Both prices include single vision prescription lenses. Free shipping to the states we serve.
What lens options can I add?
Every pair comes with standard plastic (CR-39) single vision lenses. On each frame page you choose your lens material, anti-glare and tint before adding it to your cart:
- Lens material: Standard plastic (CR-39) (included), Polycarbonate +$15, Hi-index 1.67 +$45
- Anti-glare coating: No anti-glare, Standard anti-glare +$35, Crizal Easy anti-glare +$50
- Lens tint: Clear, Solid tint +$20, Photochromic +$55, Transitions GEN S +$68
- Extras: Engraved temple +$18
Prescriptions stronger than ±4.00 SPH or 3.00 CYL add $15 per pair plus $1.50 for each extra diopter per lens.
Can I buy just the frame, or just lenses?
No. Every order is a complete pair: a frame with single vision prescription lenses made to your Rx. We don't sell frames without lenses or lenses without a frame.
Which states do you ship to?
We currently ship to Oregon, Montana, Delaware and Michigan. We're adding more states soon. Email fasteyeglasses@gmail.com if you'd like to know when we reach yours.
Do you make bifocals or progressives?
Not yet. We make single vision lenses only, which have one power across the whole lens, for distance or for reading. If your prescription has an ADD value, email us before you order.
What do I need to order?
Your eyeglass prescription (SPH, CYL and AXIS for each eye) and your PD. You can type the numbers in at checkout, upload a photo or PDF of your prescription, or both.
