How Long Do Glasses Take? (And Other Questions We Hear All the Time)

From appointment planning to glasses pick-up, Dr. John Maurillo at Village Visions helps make eye care easy for families across Skaneateles.

Most of the time, your new glasses will be ready in five to seven business days. Our in-house optician takes the time to ensure every order is precise and high quality before we call you in for pickup.

Occasionally, orders may take longer due to:

  • Complex lens prescriptions
  • Back-ordered or specialty frames

If there’s ever a delay, we’ll let you know up front. Our priority is accuracy and quality—so you receive glasses that look and fit just right.

Is There a Warranty on Glasses?

Yes! Every pair of glasses comes with a one-year warranty. If they break or don’t feel right, bring them back to Village Visions—we’ll make it right.

We stand behind every frame and lens ordered through our Eyeglasses & Designer Frames collection.

What Happens When You Pick Up Your Glasses?

We don’t just hand them off. When you come in, we will:

  • Adjust them for a perfect fit
  • Clean and polish your lenses
  • Explain proper eyewear care

During your visit, we walk you through how to care for your glasses—like why you should never wipe lenses dry or use harsh cleaners. These simple habits can extend the life of your frames and lenses.

How Far in Advance Should I Book My Appointment?

  • Existing patients are usually pre-booked one year in advance during their comprehensive eye exam.
  • New patients, or anyone scheduling during high-demand times like back-to-school or year-end insurance use, should aim to book at least a week in advance.

The best way to secure your preferred slot is to plan early, especially if your schedule is limited to certain days or times.

Can I Book My Whole Family for the Same Day?

Absolutely. We regularly accommodate family eye appointments to make things easier for busy households.

Just one ask: if your plans change, please let us know as soon as possible. Last-minute no-shows for grouped bookings leave big gaps in our schedule—and we want to keep those slots open for families like yours.
