Frequently Asked Questions.
1. Can I buy prescription spectacles online from Himalaya Optical?
Yes, you can buy prescription spectacles online from Himalaya Optical. Choose your preferred frame, colour, size and lens option from the available products. Depending on the product, you can purchase the frame only or select powered lenses. Your prescription details can be submitted through the website or shared with the customer-support team after placing the order.
2. How do I add my eye power while ordering spectacles online?
Select your preferred spectacle frame and complete the online order. You can then provide your prescription details through the website’s power-submission facility or share a valid prescription with the customer-support team. Ensure that your prescription clearly mentions the sphere, cylinder, axis, addition and pupillary-distance details wherever applicable.
3. Can I purchase only the spectacle frame without powered lenses?
Yes. Selected spectacle products provide a “Frame Only” option, allowing you to purchase the frame without prescription lenses. You can later get lenses fitted according to your eye prescription. Always check the available lens options on the individual product page before placing your order.
4. What types of prescription lenses can I select with my spectacle frame?
Depending on the selected frame, you may be able to choose frame-only, single-vision or progressive lens options. Available lens choices can include Digisafe, Thin Digisafe, ARC Progressive, Wide ARC Progressive, Crizal Easy Pro and Crizal Sapphire HR. Lens availability and pricing may differ by frame and prescription.
5. What is the difference between single-vision and progressive spectacles?
Single-vision spectacles use one prescription power across the entire lens and are commonly used for distance, reading or computer vision. Progressive spectacles combine distance, intermediate and near-vision correction in one lens without a visible dividing line. The right option depends on your prescription, age, visual requirements and daily activities.
6. Can I buy progressive eyeglasses online?
Yes. Many spectacle frames available on Himalaya Optical support progressive lenses. Select “Progressive” under the lens options on an eligible product page and choose from the available progressive lens types. A complete and recent prescription, including the near addition power, is required for accurate progressive-lens processing.
7. Do you offer computer glasses or lenses for digital-screen use?
Selected spectacle frames can be fitted with Digisafe or Thin Digisafe lenses. These options are designed for customers looking for lenses suited to modern digital lifestyles. Lens suitability depends on your prescription, working distance and screen-use habits, so consult an eye-care professional before selecting your lenses.
8. Which spectacle lenses are suitable for high eye power?
Customers with higher prescriptions may benefit from thinner or high-index lenses, depending on their power and selected frame. The ideal lens index should balance thickness, weight, clarity and cost. Very high-index lenses are not automatically necessary for every prescription, so professional guidance is recommended before making a selection.
9. How do I choose the correct spectacle-frame size online?
Check the lens width, bridge width and temple length listed on the product page. Compare these measurements with a pair of spectacles that already fits you comfortably. For example, a size may appear as 53-18-140, where 53 mm is the lens width, 18 mm is the bridge width and 140 mm is the temple length.
10. How does the virtual try-on feature for spectacles work?
Products marked with “Try-On” allow you to preview how a spectacle frame may look on your face using your device’s camera or an uploaded image. Virtual try-on can help compare different shapes, colours and styles. However, you should still check the frame measurements because virtual try-on does not confirm the physical fit.
11. Which spectacle-frame shape will suit my face?
As a general style guide, round faces often suit rectangular or square frames, while square faces may look balanced with round or oval frames. Oval faces can usually carry most frame shapes. Cat-eye and butterfly frames can create a lifted appearance, while rectangular frames offer a structured look. Personal comfort and preference should remain the deciding factors.
12. What is the difference between full-rim, half-rim and rimless spectacles?
Full-rim spectacles have a complete frame surrounding the lenses and generally provide a bold, durable look. Half-rim frames partially surround the lenses and offer a lighter appearance. Rimless spectacles have minimal visible framing and create a clean, understated style. Himalaya Optical allows shoppers to filter spectacles by full-rim, half-rim and rimless designs.
13. Are spectacles available for men, women and unisex styles?
Yes. The collection includes spectacle frames for men, women and unisex wearers. You can use the gender filter to narrow down the available options. However, frame categories are primarily style guides, and customers can choose any design that fits comfortably and matches their personal style.
14. Which spectacle shapes and colours are available online?
The collection includes rectangle, square, round, oval, cat-eye, butterfly, aviator, pilot, hexagon, clubmaster, wayfarer and other frame shapes. Available colours include black, brown, blue, gold, silver, green, purple, red, transparent and Havana variations. The exact colours and shapes depend on current product availability.
15. Which spectacle brands are available at Himalaya Optical?
Himalaya Optical offers spectacles from brands such as Ray-Ban, Oakley, Vogue, Emporio Armani, Gucci, Prada, Burberry, Versace, Bvlgari, Tom Ford, Michael Kors, Tommy Hilfiger, Silhouette, Stepper, Maybach and several other international and in-house eyewear brands. Brand availability may change as new collections are introduced.
16. Are the branded spectacle frames sold online genuine?
The products sold through its website are 100% genuine. Product pages include details such as the brand, model number, colour code, frame material, measurements and country of origin, wherever available. Keep the invoice, original packaging and warranty documents safely after receiving your order.
17. Are spectacle prices inclusive of taxes?
Yes. The prices displayed on Himalaya Optical product pages are shown in Indian rupees and are inclusive of applicable taxes. The final price may vary depending on the selected frame, colour, lens option, prescription lens type and any active online offer.
18. Is shipping free, and how long does spectacle delivery take?
Yes. Shipping is free across India. The estimated delivery time is 5–10 working days. Certain products may require additional time, as mentioned on their respective product pages.
19. Can I cancel, return or exchange spectacles ordered online?
Cancellation: Complete spectacles can be cancelled within 4 hours of placing the order or before the lenses are processed, whichever is earlier. Once the order has been shipped, it cannot be cancelled. A timely cancellation is eligible for a 100% refund.
Return: Returns must be requested within 7 days of receiving the order and are accepted only for manufacturing defects. The product must be unused, unworn and returned with its original packaging, invoice, tags, warranty documents and accessories.
For powered spectacles, the cost of customized prescription lenses is non-refundable. Only the frame cost may be refunded after inspection.
Exchange: Products may be exchanged for another product of equivalent value within 7 days of delivery, subject to inspection. A ₹200 redelivery charge applies.
20. Can I try spectacle frames at home or visit a Himalaya Optical store?

A Home Try-On service is also available in Kolkata, allowing customers to explore selected spectacles and sunglasses from home. Service availability and appointment slots should be confirmed while booking.
