The eyewear industry is dominated by a few large companies, which keeps pricing high and limits access. Starers opens frame production to local makers and home printers.
The goal is simple: practical, customizable frames that people can make anywhere and complete with standard optical lens edging services.
After print: lens edging guide
1. Determine lens type
Choose single vision, bifocal, or progressive according to prescription needs.
2. Determine lens material
Choose plastic, polycarbonate, or high-index depending on budget, durability, and prescription strength.
3. Measure PD
Pupillary distance aligns the optical center to your eyes. Ask an optician if you need help measuring it.
4. Choose coating
Anti-glare, scratch-resistant, and UV coatings improve comfort and durability.
5. Place edging order
Share lens type, material, PD, and coating details with an optician or online lab.
6. Delivery and installation
Have the delivered lenses installed by an optometrist or optician for proper fit.
No existing lens? Frame shape can still be measured.
Optometrists can trace the printed frame directly using equipment such as the Briot Scan 8 tracer, or use 3D/manual measurement tools.
