About

LensesOnly is a unique optical shop that’s been serving local communities for the past 10 years. We have a total of 5 locations, Avon, Bloomfield, Torrington, Wethersfield, and Plainville being our newest!

At LensesOnly, we specialize in providing high-quality lenses for your existing frames. But that’s not all—we also offer a large selection of frames to choose from, ensuring you find the perfect fit for your style and needs. Each store carries between 1,000-2,000 frames. Plainville specifically has about 1,500 frames on display.

The story of LensesOnly began 10 years ago when Steven and his long-time friend, who’s an experienced optician, recognized a gap in the optical industry. They saw that many optical shops and big box retailers didn’t cater to customers who wanted to keep their own frames. Often, those customers would be asked to sign waivers, leave their frames behind, and wait up to three weeks for their lenses. That’s where the name LensesOnly comes from—a simple, straightforward concept focused on providing lenses without the hassle.

What sets us apart is our team of highly skilled opticians. We specialize in the art of opticianry and take pride in carefully crafting each pair of eyewear, from start to finish. Unlike many optical shops, we don’t ask you to leave your frames behind. You can walk in, choose your lens options, and have them expertly mounted right in our office while you wait.

At LensesOnly, we are committed to offering a service that’s convenient, efficient, and personalized. Whether you need new lenses for your current frames or you’re searching for a fresh new look, we’ve got you covered.

We look forward to continuing to serve this wonderful community!
