To buy eyeglasses online you should first know your frame size, and prescription. Next, after you choose your frames, you’ll then be able to choose your lens type, lens material, and lens treatment options. Yang Low online offers hundreds of styles from top brands, so your first step is fun—just browse our incredible collection!
First, decide what style of eyeglasses you want. With thousands of frames to choose from, you can narrow down results when browsing by using product filters like frame type, color, frame shape, and size.
For any pair of glasses to fit properly, you’ll need to know your frame size. You can find your frame size by looking for the three frame size numbers on the inside of the temple of your current glasses.
Keep in mind that different frame shapes complement different face shapes and choosing the right frame for your face can mean the difference between a pair of glasses you absolutely love and glasses that you’re not very excited about wearing. Our handy face shape guide will help you choose the right glasses to flatter your face.
Once you have an idea of your face shape and frame style, you can just order that on it’s own from us! This is our most popular way of buying eyeglasses on our website!
While you don’t need a prescription to order eyeglasses from Yang Low, you will need a current prescription if you require corrective lenses. With your prescription in hand, you can enter details in the ordering process so we can craft your custom lenses. If you don’t have a current prescription, you can visit us in our physical shop and see our Optometrists for an eye exam. Alternatively, if you are far from our Miri, Sarawak shop, you can visit your local Optometrist!
Choose your lens type from options like single vision, bifocal, and progressive no-line lenses. Each lens type has its own benefits and some may be better suited for your prescription and lifestyle than others. Most nearsighted and farsighted people need single-vision lenses, which have only one corrective power and are also commonly used for reading glasses. While multifocal lenses have two or more different corrective powers, which can help you see better at different distances.
Choosing the right lens material for your eyeglasses will depend on your prescription and preferences. Some prescriptions will limit you to a specific material, while others will allow you more choices. Additionally, your lifestyle will influence which lenses you may prefer. If you’re concerned with impact resistance, then polycarbonate lenses would be preferred and if maximum clarity is essential, then a thinner high-index lens would work best.
Most lenses come with scratch-resistant coating, UV protection, and edge polish. You can also choose enhanced features like Duraclear Anti-Reflective (AR) coating, Digital Light Protection, or Transitions® lenses to add to your lenses that can improve eye safety, cut major vision annoyances like glare, or can offer the convenience of eyeglasses and prescription sunglasses in a single pair of frames.
Once you have decided on all the options (or even just the frame!) above, you can go right ahead and add your favourite frame (or frames) to your cart!
Yang Low accepts all major credit cards, including Visa and Mastercard. If you’d like to use your eye insurance coverage for your glasses, you can get reimbursed by your insurance company for qualifying purchases.
