Need same-day prescription glasses in Kathmandu because your glasses are lost, broken, damaged or no longer usable? Vision Concern Eye Clinic & Optical provides fast prescription verification, replacement glasses and urgent optical support for tourists, expats, international visitors and local patients.
Same-day completion depends on your prescription, lens type, frame choice, coating and current lens availability. Contact us before visiting so we can advise what may be possible.
Check Same-Day AvailabilitySome standard single-vision prescriptions may be completed quickly when suitable lenses and frames are available.
Complex prescriptions, high-index lenses, progressive lenses, customised coatings or special orders may require additional production time.
For the fastest answer, send your prescription and deadline through WhatsApp before visiting.
International visitors often have limited time in Kathmandu. If you need replacement glasses before a flight, trek or onward journey, send us:
Our team can then advise whether same-day or fast-turnaround service may be practical.
Eye Care for Tourists & Expats →
If you already have a valid prescription, bring or send a clear copy. If your prescription is unavailable, outdated or your vision has changed, a professional eye examination may be recommended before making new glasses.
Comprehensive Eye Examination →
| Lens Type | Same-Day Possibility |
|---|---|
| Standard Single Vision | May be possible for selected prescriptions if stock is available |
| Reading Glasses | May be possible depending on prescription and lens availability |
| High-Index Lenses | Depends on prescription and stock; some require ordering |
| Progressive Lenses | Usually requires more time because of measurements and lens production |
| Photochromic / Special Coatings | Depends on product and coating availability |
In some cases, new lenses may be fitted into an existing frame if the frame is in suitable condition and compatible with the required lenses.
The frame must be physically inspected before confirming this option.
If your frame is damaged, bring the glasses for inspection. Minor issues such as loose screws, nose pads or certain frame adjustments may sometimes be handled without replacing the complete glasses.

Check Same-Day AvailabilityIf you need urgent prescription glasses before a flight or departure, send your prescription, a photo of your old glasses, hotel or location and departure time before visiting. Same-day completion is not guaranteed; it depends on prescription, lens type, frame choice, workshop timing and availability.
The team can inspect and measure an existing pair, but a fresh eye examination may be safer when the old lenses are damaged, vision has changed or measurements are uncertain.
