Leeds Glasses Repairs | AlphaOmega

Yes, in most cases we can help. Broken arms are one of the most common problems we see. We can usually repair them so the fix is barely noticeable, whether it’s a simple break or something more complicated. We’ve even brought back frames that were run over by cars or chewed by pets, as our reviews show.

Simple repairs are affordable, while more complex ones may take a bit longer. We recommend sending your glasses to us for a proper assessment rather than trying to fix them with superglue, which can damage the frame and make repairs more difficult.

Yes, we repair all brands and models, no matter where you bought them. Many customers in Leeds tell us that other opticians said their frames couldn’t be fixed and tried to sell them a new pair. We’re proud to show that’s not always true. We work with all kinds of materials, from plastic to titanium and even precious metals. Whether you bought your glasses in Leeds or online, we’ll give you honest advice and a free repair quote.

Sadly, we can’t repair scratched lenses. We often have to let customers know that this is the one thing we can’t fix. Trying to polish out scratches will only remove important coatings, like anti-reflective or polarised layers, and make the lens worse. We believe clear vision is important, so we want to be upfront about this. The best solution is to replace the lens. We can help by finding high-quality lenses that fit your original frame, which is usually much cheaper than buying new glasses.

Yes, we specialise in repairing vintage frames. Restoring glasses that are 70 to 100 years old is something we’re passionate about. Customers send us unique finds and family heirlooms, and we enjoy the challenge of bringing them back to life. We can repair frames made from wood, bone, horn, gold, or silver. Fixing modern plastic frames is usually simple, but vintage metal or delicate materials need expert hands. We always treat every heirloom with care and respect.

Yes, we’re one of the few UK specialists who can supply genuine replacement parts for Oakley and Ray-Ban. Many customers in Leeds ask us about this. For designer brands, it’s important to use real parts. We source our parts directly from the manufacturer, so you’ll receive a genuine hinge, arm, or lens. For example, we often fix loose nose bridges on Oakley Juliet X-Metals, which many people think can’t be repaired. We always use genuine parts to keep your sunglasses valuable and in top condition.

We’re proud of how fast we work. Most repairs are finished the same day we get your glasses. Many Leeds customers send us their glasses and get them back, fully fixed, within 24 to 48 hours. Our modern equipment and skilled team make this possible. The total time depends on the postage you choose. We also give you a tracking code so you can see your repair’s progress at every step.

Yes, and it’s easy to get started. Just fill out our online enquiry form, tell us what’s wrong, and upload a photo. We’ll send you a quick, free quote. Many customers in Leeds find this helpful when deciding to send us their glasses. We can’t give a final price until we see the glasses in person, but we never charge for the assessment. If you choose not to go ahead, we’ll send your glasses back for free, just as you sent them. There’s no risk.

Our prices are competitive, especially compared to the cost of buying new glasses. The final cost depends on the damage and the frame material, but we always try to give you the best value. Simple fixes like replacing a screw or nose pad are cheap. More complex repairs, like soldering metal frames or making custom parts, cost more but are still much less than buying new designer frames or lenses. We’re always clear about pricing, so you can approve the cost before we start.
