English-Speaking Optician for Broken or Lost Glasses in Kathmandu

For broken frames, missing screws, damaged nose pads, lost glasses or lens-only replacement, send a photo of the problem, your prescription if available, your location and departure deadline before visiting.

I lost my prescription. Can you copy my old glasses?

The optical team can inspect and measure an old pair, but this does not replace an eye examination in every case. A fresh check may be recommended if vision has changed, the lenses are badly damaged or the measurement is uncertain.
