Lens Replacement Guide for Optical Shops

PLANOSUNLENS · BUILT FOR OPTICAL SHOPS

Give your customers a fresh outlook with the right sunglass lenses. PlanoSunLens helps optical shops source non-prescription lens blanks across tinted, polarized, and photochromic families. Use this guide to select your specifications, plan the job, and order with confidence. Frame assessment, edging, and fitting should be completed by a qualified optical professional.

Start with the frame. Build around your customer.

Every replacement starts with the eyewear already in your hands. Inspect the frame condition and discuss the customer’s intended use and preferred appearance. Confirm whether the job calls for non-prescription plano lenses or prescription lenses. Plano lens blanks are not finished prescription lenses or ready-to-install replacements.

Find your fit in the PlanoSunLens range

• Classic solid tints: explore CR-39 Standard Solid Tint and CR-39 Special Solid Tint for a uniform tinted appearance.

The right details make the right order

On the selected PlanoSunLens product page, check the variant’s material, color, diameter, base curve, and available quantity. Match the specifications to the job rather than choosing by color alone. If a required detail is unclear, confirm it before purchasing.

Your professional expertise completes the replacement

A lens blank does not guarantee frame compatibility. Have the optical professional confirm suitability for the frame and whether the lens can be edged and fitted appropriately. Follow the applicable equipment and frame manufacturer’s instructions.

Check your order. Finish with care.

Before checkout, review the selected variants, ordering units, quantities, and shipping details. Do not assume a listing is sold as a pair unless it states that clearly. After professional fitting, inspect lens seating, frame condition, alignment, and the finished result before returning the eyewear to your customer.
