That will vary on the type of lenses you require. But usually it takes between a few days and a week or so for your spectacles to be completed.Some lenses are made with special materials and special coatings, they take longer to be made, Some spectacles can be made within one hour if the lenses are available out of stock and do not have special coatings. If you need that service then feel free to ask. |

| Question |
Who invented Spectacles
|
| Answer |
Nobody knows who invented spectacles. Roman tragedian Seneca is said to have read all the books in Rome by peering through a glass globe of water. A thousand years later, presbyopic monks used segments of glass spheres that could be laid against reading material to magnify the letters, called a reading stone. Venetian glass blowers, who had learned how to produce glass for reading stones, later constructed lenses that could be held in a frame in front of the eyes instead of directly on the reading material.
The invention of spectacles profoundly influenced progress in the arts and sciences, yet we do not know whom to thank for this invention. Marco Polo, journeying to China in 1270, is said to have observed elderly Chinese using spectacles. The Chinese themselves claim that spectacles originated in Arabia in the 11th century.
