Fast Trade Glazing Turnaround
The Glasses Basket provides fast, trade-only lens glazing for UK opticians and optical practices. Approved partners submit a frame or prescription through the portal, and every order is glazed in a UK lab and dispatched within 24–48 hours of acceptance. Next-day delivery is available. Single vision, bifocal and varifocal lenses are all handled, into a catalogue frame or your own supplied frame. Each job is tracked in real time from submission to dispatch in the partner dashboard, with job sheets and VAT invoices generated automatically. Single-vision reglazes start from £19 and varifocals from £49, coatings included. To start ordering with fast, predictable turnaround, open a partner account at lenses.theglassesbasket.com — approval is typically within 24 hours, often within 4–6 hours.
