Why ZEISS · Made to Order

ZEISS Progressive Lenses in NYC

We make ZEISS progressive lenses to order for your prescription and your frame. Choose a frame at any of our stores, or bring your own.

Upper East Side Chelsea Brooklyn

How Long It Takes

Progressive lenses take 3 to 7 business days. Single vision glasses are different: they are typically ready in about one hour, because we keep over 1,000 ZEISS single vision lenses at each store.

ZEISS ClearMind Progressive Lenses

We fit ZEISS ClearMind progressive lenses, including ZEISS ClearMind Individual 3. Here is how ZEISS describes them:

“The optimized hybrid design in ZEISS ClearMind Progressive Lenses provides large fields of clear vision at all distances, in all directions.”

“An extra large intermediate zone with minimal blur at the edges promotes smooth transitions from near to far.”

Quoted from ZEISS ClearMind progressive lenses on zeiss.com.
