In 2018, longtime online friends Will, an industrial designer and Jason, an optician hadn't met in person untill a mutual friend's wedding. Both were VR users and both had the same problem: Wearing glasses in VR was terrible.
The scratched lenses, the frame pressure and headaches. There had to be a better solution than what was currently available. Jason had some ideas from his many years in the optical industry but hadn't fleshed them out yet.
He presented his ideas to Will, and they reached an agreement to work together on a solution. They aimed for a blend of traditional eyewear aesthetics with ergonomic features prioritizing user comfort.
Why not provide the absolute best, even if it means sacrificing a little profit

Quality Design and Engineering
Quality Design and Engineering

High-Quality Optics
High-Quality Optics
While some companies charge extra for higher-end lenses, Reloptix lenses are premium high-index with anti-reflective or blue light coated as a standard.
We also tune your prescription to the specific headsets' depth of field; giving you a better quality image and sense of immersion.
Customer Service and Value
Customer Service and Value
We pride ourselves on our customer service and ability to cater to individual customers needs. whether that be special high prescription lenses or a custom insert for a user with disabilities, we try our best to accommodate.
Where other companies have turned away customers, Reloptix has been able to help thousands experience VR like everyone else.
Reloptix sources their lenses from the same companies that white label lenses for a lot of the big names in the optical industry, cutting out the middle-man. This ensures high quality at a lower price and allows us to offer a larger array of lens powers and coatings for a flat rate.
We wanted to make a solution that people bought not just because they needed it to see but, overall elevates their experience.

Timeline
2019
Initial Design and Development
R&D started in the later part of 2019 on the Quest 1 and Rift S. Many different designs with quick detach features we're posed but none match the ease of removal and versatility of magnetic attachment.
Easy removal also meant ease of retrieval which seemed to be a issue with several of the units on the market. This is where the tab we include on most of our inserts comes in, giving the user a soft, tactile portion to grab and not come in contact with the lenses.
2020
Company Founding and Kickstarter
Like most companies, the beginning of 2020 brought development to a temporary standstill. The middle of 2020 saw a major ramp up and after many prototypes we're tested, an eventual final production model was agreed upon.
Jason and Will proceeded to focus on establishing production and commencing a Kickstarter endeavor for funding. The outcome of this campaign was not as anticipated, yet they pressed on by personally financing Reloptix and upholding the support of a large portion of their contributors.
2021
Early Success
Design and production was entirely in-house, utilizing Jason's basement as a lens lab and Will's home office as a design studio. Leveraging their established presence in the online VR community, word-of-mouth sales began to occur.
VR groups and influencers started to recognize Reloptix, building a name for quality and customer service within the VR community.
2022
Company Expands
With exceptional products and diligent customer service. Expansion was certain. Reloptix advances to a fulfillment center to manage rising demand.
Upon addressing the challenges and enhancing the fresh supply chain, sales commence to escalate, setting new company benchmarks.
2023 - 2024
Plans for expansion
With a global vision, Reloptix is working on offering improved shipping rates, with the UK in mind.
Additional areas are being considered to aid in fulfillment efforts in Europe.
I’d heard people say these lenses are a game changer and they sure are. Makes wearing the headset more comfortable. Since I have bifocals I was concerned they were only the distance script but they are perfect!
Outstanding product. I have severe astigmatism and with these glasses I can play and read text without squinting and getting headaches. Thank you so much. The shipping was fast too.

A real game-ing changer!
My Reloptix prescription lenses for my Meta Quest 2 are a real game changer. I used to need my contact lenses to go to VR. Now I just pop on the headset and away I go. My only suggestion for Reloptix, the price is too low!
Quite simply, these lenses have made my VR experiences so much better, more comfortable, enjoyable, immersive, an all round game changer! I HIGHLY recommend Reloptix lenses.

Very Pleased
Very happy with these, so much better than trying to manage glasses. Rather than trying to fit glasses that are too wide into the space of the quest 2, I just pull my glasses off and put headset on, way more comfortable. quality of materials seems top notch. I struggled a bit trying to get the mounting rings on, it was not as easy as the instructional video portrays, and I have had one instance of the mounting ring popping off. The lenses are a single prescription (not progressive or bifocal) and so I thought there would be a fairly wide area of focus, not so, but that may be a product of the quest itself. I ordered these to ship to Canada and with exchange and shipping and duties whatever the price was pretty high, however, the convenience and quality of these lenses justify the cost.
Overall Verdict: Happy.
It was easy to find what I was looking for and to order prescription lenses. It is a simple installation process to put the lenses into the headset. The prescription is spot on and they are working perfectly. The fit and finish is excellent and they are very comfortable to use. Highly Recommend!!!

10/10 Fantastic / Fantásticos
I can finally play without filling like my glasses are cutting my face.
Thank you for the great work!
Although I ordered these after Christmas and things were delayed a little, Reloptix kept me updated on progress. Once they arrived, these inserts worked perfectly, were super easy to attach and just makes wearing the Quest 3 so much more comfortable! If you're going to invest in a headset, why not do the same so you can see properly when you use it! Definitely recommended!

I must admit I thought this was too cheap to be a quality set of lenses for my psvr 2, but I was very wrong.
I can see perfectly without my glasses, I don’t even notice the lens when I put on the headset. These things were amazing and I’d recommend anyone who wears glasses and plays vr to try these. 10 out of 10. Will definitely buy another set if I ever get a new vr headset.

Non rx
very fast shipping.
Used frame and non RX glasses for 2 days, pushed out non rx glass and taped in old rx lenses from Q2 order. Would have been nice to have a plastic (3d printed) interface from Q2 to Q3 frames. Taping is only a temporary fix until I can get a new rx and order new Q3 lenses and frames..

Huge difference!
The prescription lenses made a significant difference in my ability to clearly see the various apps on my new Meta Quest 3. I have a lot of experience having to us my "readers" in Meta Quest 2 and that was never pleasant. I couldn't be happier with these prescription lenses!

Worked as advertised
They do what they're supposed to do...take the place of my glasses when using my Oculus 3. Very easy to install and even easier to remove for cleaning or if someone else is using the headset. Price was right. Nothing not to like.

The Best VR Lens Inserts
I’ve been through multiple brands of prescription inserts. As a big VR user who’s been through multiple headsets, I’ve found Reloptix to be my favorite brand. Not only do they have some of the highest quality lenses out there, but their product goes above and beyond to ensure the user has the smoothest experience possible. I’ve had zero fogging issues, no extra glare issues, they’re super easy to clean, and the added blue light filter is a great little addition. They put customer experience first over everything. From the premium carrying case it comes in to their customer service. You pay for the best possible VR experience with no extra hassles.
