Yes. You can select "Frame Only" when placing your order.

We offer thousands of frame styles, and you can use the Virtual Try-On to select the glasses that best suit your face shape.

Lenses

The primary thing you need to determine is which prescription eyeglass lenses will best correct your vision. Depending on your visual needs, you may require either single-vision or multifocal lenses. After that, you can focus on the lens material, special coatings, tints, and other options to make an informed decision about which lenses will suit you best.

Our lenses are made of resin, which is lightweight and highly impact-resistant. Resin lenses also have a strong ability to block ultraviolet radiation to protect your eyes.However, if you choose "Frame only" when placing your order, the glasses will come with temporary PC lenses not intended for daily eyewear

Single vision lenses refer to the lens that have only one use, to see objects in the distance, to see intermediate like computer or phone, or to see near for reading.
While progressives are a type of prescription eyeglasses that can corrects near, intermediate, and distance fields of vision in one lens so you don't have to switch between multiple pairs.

We offer standard tint colors such as gray, brown, purple and pink.

Polarized lenses help to reduce glare that reflects off of surfaces such as water or glass, as well as to help enhance color definition and visual clarify in bright conditions. Since glare can distort color and obstruct your vision, polarized sunglasses are a good choice for even the most basic daytime outdoor activities, whether you’re competing in sports or just driving around.

Photochromic Lenses look like regular clear lenses when indoors, but automatically darken when moving into a brighter area. They will darken in the light even on overcast days as UV rays still penetrate clouds.

The effect of the tinted lens is thorough and only one tint color matters indoors or outside.
The photochromic lens is transparent indoors while the color darkens outside.
The polarized lens has the same color indoors and outdoors, and its effect is better than the tinted lens and can filter harmful UV.

The thickness of the lens is related to the lens index. We offer lenses with different indexes. Generally speaking, the higher the indexes are, the thinner and lighter the lens becomes.

Lens index refers to the refractive index of an eyeglass lens material. It is a measure of how efficiently the material bends (or refracts) light. The higher the index, the more the material bends light, which allows the lens to be thinner while still providing the same prescription strength.
Here’s a breakdown of the common lens index categories:

1.57 (Mid-Index)
Best For: Mild to moderate prescriptions.(e.g.,0.00 to ±2.00)

1.61 (High Index)
Pros: Thinner and lighter than mid-index lenses.
Best For: Moderate prescriptions (e.g., ±2.00 to ±5.00).

1.67 (High Index)
Pros: Significantly thinner and lighter, ideal for stronger prescriptions.
Best For: Higher prescriptions (e.g., ±5.00 to ±8.00).

1.74 (Ultra-High Index)
Pros: Thinnest and lightest available, excellent for strong prescriptions.
Best For: Very high prescriptions (e.g., ±8.00 and higher).

How Lens Index Affects Lenses

Thickness: Higher-index lenses bend light more efficiently, so they can be thinner than standard lenses for the same prescription strength.

Weight: Higher-index lenses tend to be lighter, which can make glasses more comfortable to wear.

Aesthetics: Thinner lenses have a more flattering appearance, especially for higher prescriptions.

In addition to single vision lenses, reading glasses, and progressive lenses, we also offer optional selections to suit your preferences and needs such as UV protection,blue light blocking and driving lenses.

We offer Scratch Resistant Coating,Anti-Reflective Coating.and a Super Hydrophobic Coating which is specifically formulated to prevent any type of debris build-up on your lenses and make them easier to clean.

Sorry, we don't provide lens replacement. We kindly sugguest you can buy a new pair of glasses.

Unfortunately we are unable to sell lenses independent of their frame.

Yes, we provide blue-violet light protection as an additional enhancement to your prescription lenses. You will be able to select the Blue Light Blocking option before adding glasses to cart.

Prescription

You may request a written copy of your valid prescription from your personal eye care provider.

Your eyeglass prescription is typically written in a grid, using a combination of terms, abbreviations, and numbers. Keep in mind that usually the further from zero the numbers are, the more correction you need. A + symbol means that you’re farsighted, or have trouble seeing things close up. A – symbol means you're nearsighted, or struggle with seeing far away. Additional abbreviations are as follows:

• O.D. stands for oculus dexter, meaning right eye.
• O.S. stands for oculus sinister, meaning left eye. SPH (or Sphere) indicates the eyeglass prescription power, or how strong your lenses need to be to correct your vision.
• CYL (or Cylinder) indicates astigmatism, a condition where the cornea is irregularly shaped causing blurred or distorted vision. It also tells the lens strength needed to fix it.
• AXIS describes the degree and direction of your astigmatism.
• ADD is added magnifying power in the lower part of a multi-focal lens. It’s used to correct presbyopia which is the inability to focus on close objects. If you need a bifocal or progressive lens, there will be an ADD.

When placing an order, you can either manually enter your prescription or upload a picture of it. When entering your prescription, it's essential to double-check the accuracy of each value. Any discrepancy could lead to incorrect lenses.

We strongly recommend that you get an eye exam every two years, or more frequently if you notice that your vision has changed.

Pupillary distance (PD) is the measurement of the distance between the center of the pupils of your eyes. Your PD is usually included in your prescription. If not, you can measure your PD yourself or contact your eye doctor to measure it for you.

You can do it yourself or have someone else measure it using a mirror and a ruler. Place a ruler, millimeter side up, directly under the center of your right or left pupil. While looking straight ahead, measure the distance from the center of your left pupil to the center of your right pupil. Repeat for accuracy. Note that the average PD is between 57 and 65mm.

In an eyeglass prescription, "ADD" (or Add Power) refers to the additional lens power needed for reading or other close-up tasks. This value is typically associated with multifocal lenses, such as bifocals, trifocals, or progressive lenses, and is used to correct presbyopia (age-related difficulty in focusing on near objects).

Prism correction is a type of optical correction used in eyeglasses and other visual aids to help people who experience some form of double vision or vision displacement (seeing separate images of the same object).

Absolutely! When entering your prescription, click Add Prism.Whether it's a single vision Rx or progressive lenses, we can accommodate prism values of up to 6.00 in any base direction.

No, contact prescriptions and eyeglasses prescriptions differ, and using them interchangeably will result in problems with your glasses. Make sure you have the correct prescription before entering it.

if the scratches or film are still there, please contact customer service at service@elklook.com

If your vision isn't as clear as expected in your new glasses, don't worry—there are steps you can take to address the issue. First, ensure that you have your prescription and PD (Pupillary Distance) measurements correctly entered for your order. Sometimes a data entry error in your prescription or PD can lead to unclear vision.

If you've recently experienced a prescription change, keep in mind that it might take a few days to a few weeks for your eyes to adjust to the new prescription. To aid in this adjustment period, consider the following suggestions:

Double-check that your prescription details were accurately entered.

Avoid frequently switching between your old and new glasses.

However, if there was a data entry error in your prescription or PD or if the unclear vision persists or worsens, don't hesitate to contact our customer support team for further assistance.

Here are some tips to help you take care of your glasses:

Cleaning: Regularly clean your glasses with a microfiber cleaning cloth and lens cleaning solution. Avoid using abrasive materials or rough fabrics that could scratch the lenses.

Proper Storage: When you're not wearing your glasses, store them in a protective case. Avoid placing them face down on surfaces, as this can expose the lenses to potential damage.

Avoid Extreme Heat: High temperatures can cause the frame material to become more pliable, which might lead to misalignment. Avoid leaving your glasses in places with excessive heat, like the dashboard of a car.

Handle with Care: Be cautious while putting on or taking off your glasses. Using both hands to remove them can help prevent misalignment.

Regular Check-Ups: Visit your eye care professional for regular check-ups and adjustments if needed. They can ensure that your glasses are properly fitted and comfortable to wear.

Remember, the durability and longevity of your glasses depend on how well you care for them. Regular cleaning, proper storage, and gentle handling can help extend the life of your eyewear.
