SelectSpecs Rocks!

We receive parcels everyday containing customer’s own glasses that they have sent to us either to be re-glazed to replace damaged lenses or updated with their new prescription from a recent eye test, or because they would like us to perform a PD (Pupillary Distance) Check on an old pair of prescription glasses when ordering a new pair.
