Your Prescription
Everything you need to order prescription glasses from EYE POWER.
To order prescription lenses, you need an eyewear prescription from an eye examination. Your prescription contains the values we use to make your lenses.
We review every prescription before production begins. If anything is unclear, we contact you before making your glasses.

Ways to submit your prescription
1. Upload your prescription
Recommended. Attach a PDF or a photo (JPG, PNG) of your prescription during checkout. We review it before production.
2. Enter your prescription manually
Type in the values from your prescription using guided dropdowns that reduce typing errors.
3. Send it later
You can complete your order now and send your prescription afterwards. Your order will show the status PRESCRIPTION REQUIRED, and production begins only after your prescription has been received and reviewed.
We recommend uploading your prescription to reduce the risk of entering prescription values incorrectly.
I don't have a prescription
EYE POWER makes prescription eyewear based on an appropriate eyewear prescription. If you don't currently have one, arrange an eye examination before ordering prescription lenses, and ask for a copy of your eyewear prescription and your PD measurement when available.
EYE POWER does not provide eye examinations or assess whether a prescription is medically suitable for you. If you have questions about your vision or prescription, please consult your eye care professional.
