On-site Optical Laboratory

The Fastest Optical In-House Lab in Manhattan, New York City
Schedule an Eye Exam

An optical lab is a magical place where technicians measure, cut, fit and verify spectacle lenses to meet the requirements of each individual order. After an optometrist gives a prescription for corrective lenses, the opticians work in the lab to shape them according to those prescriptions. Utilizing cutting-edge manufacturing machines, our certified opticians ensure that our customers’ lenses are curved perfectly to fix any vision issue they may have. There are a few stations along the chain of lens production: selection, manufacturing, assembly, and verification. Each technician is appointed to a station according to a rotating schedule and moves along those stations throughout the day.

Our on-site laboratory is equipped with the Mr. Blue 2.0 from Essilor, a genuine ECP partner that provides a whole range of new functions and even greater flexibility than before. Thanks to a hybrid ending technology – buffing and milling in one, the optician has absolute control over the axis and overall processing of the lenses. The equipment ensures complete control of lens mounting, i.e. optimal monitoring of all trajectories, irrespective of shapes or finishing materials. With these innovative tools, our opticians will accurately determine your eyeglass prescription needs and create a new pair of ideal glasses, while our eyewear stylists, Ellen and Odila, will find the perfect frame for your face and lifestyle. Visit EuroOptica and get an unrivaled customer experience for your comfort and satisfaction.
