How do I know what glasses to get? And how do I know if they fit?

Some people already know what style or model they might have interest in, or they can tell from the picture. If not, luckily, most outdoor retail stores will carry a major brand of glacier glasses. If you don't have a store like that around your area, or if it is not convenient for you to go to a store like that, we offer our frame Test Drive Program. Here is how it works: (We only offer this program if you are purchasing our specialty lenses) Take a look at the pictures of the frames we offer, pick a couple that you think you might like. Call us and ask to take part in our Test Drive Program. What we will do is send you those frames, you can try them on at home, take them outside, and really feel what they will be like. We charge you a deposit for each pair of glasses, plus a non-refundable $10 S&H. When we get the glasses back with your order, we will credit your merchandise deposit towards the purchase. You are responsible for shipping them back to us.

Is there a warranty or guarantee on the glasses?

All of the frames have at least a ONE year manufacturer's defect warranty. Your lenses are guaranteed to be ground and made to the prescription given to us at the time of ordering. Dr.'s errors (changes and re-do's) are done at a 50% discount within one month of purchase date.

How do I know what lenses to pick?

Our trained staff will discuss your personal needs to ensure that the lenses you choose will work in your situation, whether you are climbing Everest, hiking trails or just being outside!

Do you take my health insurance?

We are not part of any health insurance organizations. Depending on your plan, you may be able to be reimbursed for part or all of your purchases. Most health insurance plans dictate what material and procedures a lab can do and use, usually they are not in the best interest of the customer, but in the (cheapest) interest of the insurance company. So rather than compromise on quality and performance, we are independent of any insurance companies.

What is a P.D.?

Pupillary Distance. This measures how far apart your eyes are. This measurement ensures that we can properly center your lenses in the frames. Your Doctor may or may not have it, so you may need to call the last place that made a pair of glasses for you to get this measurement.
