What happens in the test, and how long it takes.

About 15 to 20 minutes. No charge, whether you buy glasses or not. Bring your old glasses if you have them.

  1. Auto-refractor reading

    You look into a machine for a few seconds. It gives a first estimate of your power for each eye.

  2. Chart reading with trial lenses

    The optometrist puts a trial frame on you and swaps lenses until the smallest line on the chart is sharp. This is the part that takes the time, and the part that matters.

  3. Near vision and reading check

    For anyone over 40 we check reading distance too, and explain whether bifocal or progressive makes more sense for you.

  4. Written prescription

    You get the power on paper, with the date. It is yours to keep. You can buy here or anywhere else.

Lenses explained

Three kinds of lens. Here is which one you need.

Most confusion in an optical shop is about lenses. This is the plain version. Prices are per pair, fitted, with a one-year scratch warranty.

Which lens is for me?

  • Single vision

    One power across the whole lens. For distance only (driving, TV, the board in class) or for reading only. Most people under 40 need this.

  • Bifocal

    Distance on top, a visible half-moon for reading at the bottom. Cheaper than progressive and easy to get used to. The line shows.

  • Progressive

    Distance, computer and reading in one lens with no line. Takes a week to get used to. We give a 30-day change guarantee if you cannot adjust.

Coatings: anti-glare cuts reflections at night and on screens. Blue-cut is for computer use. Thin (high index) is for powers above 4 so the lens does not look thick.

Frames

400 frames on the wall. Try as many as you like.

Frame prices only; lens prices are in the table above. Every frame carries a one-year warranty on hinges and coating.

About the shop

One shop, one family, twenty years on Rashbehari Avenue.

Nayan Opticals opened in 2004 with two display cases and one trial lens box. Today the shop has a computerised testing room, a lens fitting lab at the back, and three people who have been here more than ten years each.

We sell what fits your face and your power, not what costs the most. If a cheaper frame suits you better, we will say so. Every pair leaves with a printed bill, the lens warranty card, and a cloth and case.

Common questions

Things people ask at the counter.

  1. Is the eye test really free?

    Yes. There is no charge and no condition to buy. If you only want the prescription on paper, that is fine.

  2. Can I bring my own frame and get new lenses?

    Yes, if the frame is in good condition. Lens prices are the same as the table. We check the frame first and tell you if it is too weak to hold new lenses.

  3. What if the new power does not feel right?

    Come back within 30 days. We re-test for free and change the lenses at no cost if the power was wrong. For progressives we give a 30-day change guarantee.

  4. Do you accept a prescription from an eye hospital?

    Yes. Bring the paper. If it is more than six months old we will suggest a fresh free test, but it is your choice.

  5. Do you repair glasses?

    Nose pads, screws, and small adjustments are free, even for glasses not bought here. Temple replacement and soldering of metal frames cost ₹150 to ₹400.

  6. Can I pay by UPI or card?

    Yes. UPI, cards and cash. For orders above ₹5,000 we can split the payment over three months on most credit cards.

What customers say

In their own words.

I had been wearing the wrong power for two years. Priyanka found it in ten minutes and the progressive pair was ready on Saturday as promised. No headaches since.

Took my son for his first glasses. They let him try twenty frames without any fuss and fitted them again for free when they went loose after a month.
