Eyeglass Purchase Policy
Custom prescription glasses are non-refundable. If you are unable to adapt to your prescription eyewear, we will re-make the lenses into a type that is of equal or lesser value at no charge. This one-time re-make policy must be done within 30 days of purchase for changes in prescription only. Upgrades will incur additional charges. *Note to Medicaid recipients, there is no allowance for a re-make under your plan, we can only make your glasses one time.*
Contact Lens Services
Contacts are medical devices (regulated by the FDA) that can cause discomfort, infection, and even permanent vision loss. New AND existing contact lens wearers require additional time and testing (as regulated by the state of Alaska) to minimize serious eye problems. For this reason, there are additional charges associated with new AND existing contact wearers. Feel free to ask your doctor about your options at the beginning of your exam.
