About Pimsley

An Optical Shop Without The Guesswork

We opened with a simple idea: glasses should be priced like everything else you buy — clearly, on the tag. Pick a frame, add the lenses you need, and you'll know the total before we measure you.

Our opticians fit every pair, and our small lens lab means we're not waiting on a truck for most everyday prescriptions.

  • ✓Every price on the tag
  • ✓Licensed opticians fit every pair
  • ✓Most vision plans accepted

How A Same-Day Pair Works

1

Bring Your Prescription

A current prescription from any eye doctor — or book an exam with us first.

2

Pick Your Frames

An optician helps you choose and takes your measurements with the frame on.

3

Lenses Cut In Our Lab

Many single-vision prescriptions are in stock and edged to your frame in-house.

4

Pick Up And Adjust

Come back later that day for your final fit. Progressives and special lenses take a few days.

Thinner Lenses

From $60 — high-index lenses for stronger prescriptions, so edges stay slim.

Anti-Glare

From $40 — fewer reflections on screens and at night.

Light-Reactive

In Every Pair

Included, Not Extra

Scratch-resistant coating

Good To Know

Questions We Get Every Day

Can every pair be ready the same day?

Many single-vision prescriptions can. Progressives, strong prescriptions and special lens types usually take a few days — we'll tell you when you order.

Do I need an appointment?

Not to shop for frames. Eye exams are by appointment, and walk-ins are welcome when there's a gap in the schedule.

Can you use a prescription from another eye doctor?

Yes. Bring a current prescription and your pupil distance if you have it — we can measure that for you.

Do you take vision insurance?

We accept most vision plans for exams and glasses, and we'll show you what your plan covers before you choose.

Can you put new lenses in my own frames?

Usually, yes. We'll check the frame first, then quote the lenses before we start.

What if my new glasses don't feel right?

Come back. We'll adjust the fit, and if the lenses aren't right we'll check them against your prescription.
