LensFactory

Specialties

We help you save up to 75% on new eyewear by replacing the prescription lenses in the frames you love. We work direct with the same factories that brick and mortor stores use, without the overhead, so you get great lenses at a great price.

History

Established in 2011.

LensFactory was originally founded under the name RelensMyFrames, with the goal of providing eyeglass wearers with unparalleled access to large national optical labs. The prescription lenses these labs (who typically only operate business to business) manufacture go through substantial price markups by the time a customer can purchase them though a retail store.

RelensMyFrames set out to change that and provide consumers with premium quality lenses at incredibly low prices. By focusing on replacing lenses in existing eyeglass frames, the service is highly optimized and customer dissatisfaction over frame fitting or style is eliminated.

In 2013, the name was changed to LensFactory. With the new name came an entirely new website with more products and options, better status reporting and a host of new features and improvements. LensFactory continues to operate under the same dedication to great quality, value and customer service that the company was originally founded on.

Meet the Business Owner

Brandon P.

Business Owner

I’m a software developer, entrepreneur, and eyeglass wearer. In 2004, I wrote a software application for analyzing Anti-​reflective coatings for a large optical lab that was developing new Anti-​reflective coatings. During that time, the challenges for eyeglass wearers to get reasonable prices on quality lenses, especially in their own eyeglass frames, became increasingly clear. The next several years were spent developing social network APIs for big financial companies, but the pull to return to the optical industry to try and improve the experience for customers was overwhelming. So in 2011, the company that would later become LensFactory was born and we have been striving to provide eyeglass wearers with great prices on factory direct lenses ever since.
