Return & Warranty Policy
American Eyecare Center is committed to providing you with the highest quality vision care, custom-crafted prescription eyewear, and contact lenses. Because all of our prescription lenses are custom-made to your unique medical and optical measurements, and professional services are rendered at the time of your visit, we enforce a strict policy regarding returns and warranties.
Non-Refundable Services and Products
- Professional Services: All professional exams, consultations, diagnostic testing, and medical evaluations are non-refundable, regardless of whether they are paid out-of-pocket or covered by vision/medical insurance.
- Insurance Benefits: Once insurance benefits have been applied and utilized for an exam, service, or product purchase, they cannot be reinstated, reused, or refunded by our office for the benefit year.
- Custom Eyewear & Contact Lenses: All prescription frames, custom prescription lenses (including single vision, progressive, anti-reflective coatings, tints, photochromic, polarized etc), and contact lenses are final sale and non-refundable, whether purchased out-of-pocket or utilizing insurance benefits.
Frame and Lens Warranties
We stand behind the craftsmanship and durability of our products. If you experience manufacturer defects, we offer the following warranty protections:
- Prescription Lens Remake Policy: If there is an intolerance to a new prescription verified by our doctor, or an error in the lab fabrication, we will re-evaluate and remake your lenses within 30 days of the original pickup date at no additional charge. (Note: Doctor-prescribed changes requested outside of a clinical error may incur standard material fees).
- Frame Manufacturer Warranty: Most frames include a 1-year manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. This warranty does not cover accidental breakage, scratching from normal wear and tear, or loss and theft.
- Contact Lens Exchanges: Unopened, undamaged, and unmarked contact lens boxes can be exchanged for a new prescription strength if your doctor changes your prescription within 60 days of purchase. Opened or expired boxes are ineligible for exchange.
