Lumos Optical: Making Eyewear Affordable for Idahoans

Last updated March 25, 2021 by Totally Boise

Quality eyewear shouldn't be a luxury item, and finding a pair of glasses to fit your style shouldn't cost a fortune. After years of finding that glasses are just too expensive, a team of passionate professionals decided it was time to make a real difference in the optical industry.

A New Vision of The Optical Industry at Lumos

Known as 'Boise's Eyewear Rebellion,' Lumos Optical is located Downtown. Lumos provides quality, trendy, and unique eyewear at reasonable prices. Understanding the importance of transparency, there are no hidden costs. All prices are listed on a menu; customer's simply choose their price point. By offering package pricing, Lumos is able to expand services and products to a broader group of individuals in need of prescription glasses.

How Does Lumos Ensure Quality Glasses at an Affordable Price?

Following the direct-to-consumer model commonly used in Europe, Lumos cuts out the middleman by working directly with frame and lens manufacturers. They've also built an in-house lens cutting facility that provides them the opportunity to offer premium lenses complete with UV protection and anti-glare at no additional cost.

Testing Your Vision at Lumos

Lumos partners with Smart Vision Labs, a leader in telemedicine technology. The vision test takes only a few minutes and is evaluated by an off-site optometrist.
