Well before Facebook and Google, Heavyglare emerged in 1999 as an innovation in the eyewear industry. We were determined to provide specialty prescriptions for a vast selection of eyeglasses and sunglasses—completely online. While a local optometrist might be limited by chain store policies or high-volume demands, we focused on crafting eyewear that truly fit each individual. The vision was simple: Saying Yes When Others Say No. We partnered with different labs to provide our customers with exactly what they needed. We offered a diverse range of products - from specialty lenses and tints to sports glasses designed for peak performance - our goal was to ensure complete customer satisfaction. A Small Business With a Big Impact Word of our eyewear company spread quickly. Customers who had been unable to find the perfect frames or high-prescription solutions at their local optometrist discovered Heavyglare. We partnered with specialized professionals and built our own lab to solve even the rarest prescription challenges, ensuring our clients could experience clear vision. By 2000, our online presence was thriving, but we knew we could do more. We opened our first physical store, offering in-person consultations and building relationships with renowned brands. Our dedication to providing exceptional service and a vast selection of stylish frames, combined with our expertise in prescription lenses, has made us a trusted name in the eyewear industry. Today, we stand proudly as one of the world's leading online optical destinations, complemented by a thriving retail presence.
