Featured sustainable eyewear ranges

JP Opticians published a blog post in February 2023 about sustainable eyewear. It highlighted some eyewear ranges that use lower-impact materials, such as bio-acetate, which is a plant-based plastic, and renewed materials. The post also mentioned packaging made with more environmentally friendly materials for some products. This shows the brand has promoted some products with a smaller environmental footprint, although the post focuses on selected ranges rather than the whole business.

Offers reglaze lens service

The company offers a reglaze service, which means it can put new lenses into a customer’s existing frame instead of replacing the whole pair. Reusing a frame can cut waste because it keeps usable products in use for longer. The website says this service is part of its product and support offer, and it is presented as a way for customers to keep their current glasses while updating the prescription.

Uses optician review for orders

JP Opticians says prescription glasses orders are only accepted after review and approval by a registered optician. This is mainly a safety and quality step, but it also helps reduce the chance of wrong orders and returns. Fewer returns can mean less transport and less wasted product. The company also says it will contact customers if it has concerns about a prescription.
