Broken frames, scratched lenses, bent nose pads: what we can fix same-day in Tamarindo, Guanacaste
Whether you snapped a hinge surfing, sat on your frames, or scratched your lenses on a rock scramble in the hills, you need a solution today — not shipped from overseas in two weeks. Ojos Del Mar has Guanacaste's only on-site Lens Lab, and most repairs and replacements are done same-day or within 24 hours.
Here's exactly what we can do.
Lens replacement
This is our most common service. If your frames are intact but your lenses are scratched, outdated, or the wrong prescription, we can cut new lenses to fit your existing frames. We stock a range of lens materials and coatings, and the turnaround for most standard replacements is same-day to 24 hours.
We can replace lenses with:
- Single-vision prescription lenses (distance or reading)
- Progressive (no-line bifocal) lenses
- Anti-reflective and anti-scratch coatings
- Polarized lenses for sunglasses
- Photochromic (light-adaptive) lenses
- UV400-protective lenses
- Blue light filtering lenses
If you have a recent prescription from another provider, we can work from that. If not, we can perform a quick exam and cut the lenses in one visit.
Frame repair and adjustment
Bent frames, misaligned temples, loose or popped hinges, and broken nose pads are all fixable in most cases. If a frame can be physically repaired, we'll tell you upfront — and if it can't, we'll let you know rather than wasting your time.
We also adjust frames that have shifted out of alignment or no longer fit correctly. This is a standard part of any visit — free with any lens service, and quick to do on its own.
Sunglass lens replacement
If your sunglasses are still structurally solid but the lenses are scratched, delaminating, or you want to upgrade to a polarized or prescription option — we can often replace them. Bring in your frames and we'll assess what's possible.
What we need from you
Bring the glasses. If you have your most recent prescription, bring that too. If you're not sure whether a repair is feasible, message us a photo first and we'll give you a quick assessment before you make the trip.
Visit our Lens Lab page for more detail, or message us on WhatsApp with a photo of the damage and we'll let you know what's possible.
