Buying sunglasses online is very simple. Buying correct prescription glasses is a little more complicated, which should not be now: there is much more variety and savings when you avoid brick and mortar and simply buy online.
While you don’t have to go to the store to find your perfect pair of specs, you should do a few things, including being able to consult your ophthalmologist before you start searching the sites. But, now things have changed a lot; getting your current prescription has never been easier!

The Lens Scanner app makes shopping for your new glasses easier and more comfortable than ever.
When it comes to buying glasses online, people are always looking for a spontaneous and practical experience. Not remembering your current prescription could, for example, require you to review your prescription again, wasting not only time and patience but also money.
SmartBuyGlasses launched a virtual eye clinic introducing the Lens Scanner, powered by 6over6 technology, to avoid these unpleasant situations and improve access to vision care. Lens Scanner is a free and easy-to-use recipe reading application that allows users who already have prescription glasses to retrieve their recipes directly from their phones. This means that eyeglass wearers no longer need to go to an eye clinic to get their current glasses prescription. Thanks to this new technology, eye care can be provided practically and directly. This app is completely safe for users.
How does it work?
The process is straightforward. You only need four things:
1. The app is available from both the Apple Store and Google Play Store, a smartphone with the Lens Scanner app installed.
2. A laptop or computer (with a 12-inch or larger screen).
3. Your current pair of glasses.
4. A standard size magnetic card for measurement.
By manipulating the light on your digital display and using the magnetic part of your card, the app can retrieve your current lenses’ optical parameters. Once the app has finished scanning the lenses of your glasses, it will provide you with an authentic recipe. Your eyeglass prescription will be automatically registered and added to all the eyeglasses you want to buy.
What are the advantages of using Lens Scanner?
The main advantage of the Lens Scanner app is that you will save time and money by checking your vision correction details in minutes.

In a few easy steps, you can get your prescription glasses with a designer pair anywhere, anytime.
