During earlier days, if you lose your pair of glasses, you will have to book an appointment with your eye doctor and wait for your turn to get a new prescription. Usually, the process would take a lot of time. This delay would result in a lot of inconveniences but not anymore.

There are several startups in the eyewear industry now. All these startups aim to provide a better experience for their customers. The industry has changed a lot in the last decade with the help of the internet. Just like how technology has shaped up the other sectors, the eyewear or glasses industry is also witnessing new transformations that take on the giants that already exist in the business.
