At JINS, it takes around just 30 minutes after payment at the quickest to have your glasses ready. And you don’t need to have an eye examination beforehand. Just visit the store, choose a frame, and the staff will check your eyes to make lenses that fit your prescription. After paying, if your lenses are in stock, you’ll be able to pick up your glasses in just 30 minutes at the fastestーenough time to browse some of the shops in the ever-buzzing Shinjuku!

Prescription Glasses Starting From 6,600 Yen!

JINS sells high-quality prescription glasses starting from 6,600 yen, and all prices are clearly displayed. There are also plenty of add-on options, like blue light-cutting lenses and colour lenses. Plus, JINS offers in-store eye examinations at no extra charge, and the price for glasses includes both a case and cloth. Despite these amazing prices, often much cheaper than overseas, JINS glasses boast world-class design and durability, earning them hordes of international fans who stock up with each visit to Japan. This is made even better by the tax free shopping discount (10%) for overseas travelers!
