At BuyNewSpecs, we are driven to keeping our prices as low as possible. We do this by purchasing in bulk and keeping our overheads low. We don’t operate from a main street store hence we don’t have the costs associated with running such a store e.g. Shop fit out, staff etc which helps maintain lower costs, and therefore lower prices to you.
We offer many of the same frames that are on sale in your main street opticians, (but at much lower prices), and use the same frame, lens manufacturers and glazing machinery used in such stores. All our glasses are checked by our resident optician M. Staunton Bsc. Optom (OP012907)
The lenses are made to the highest specification and all conform to BS2738-3.
You will need an up to date prescription (less than 2 years old), Your P.D. measurement, (see how to measure my P.D.) and a rough idea what size frame you need. How to measure your glasses.
All you need is your prescription from any Opticians. They are obligated to give this to you after a Sight Test as it’s your property. Please ask for your 'Pupillary Distance' or PD at the same time. You cannot order from us if your prescription is older than two years old, as it is likely your prescription may well have changed during that time. Just simply input the details onto your computer screen as they are written on your glasses prescription. Please take extra care with inputting + or – signs as errors with these signs may result in your new glasses being un-wearable.
