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

We strive to bring the best design and quality to everything we make while trying to keep cost down and passing it on to our valued customers.
Quality Design and Engineering
Quality Design and Engineering
We pride ourselves on our thoughtful design and attention to detail. From bevel placements to easily removed magnetic attachment, Reloptix stands out from the competition.
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.
Great product as advertised. Shipping is a little slow but worth it. Now if I could just decide from the huge selection of perscription sunglasses. Great prices!!
To be honest, I was a little worried at first. It took a while to receive these (which was stated prior to ordering, how long they would take to receive, so no surprise) and I had just gotten a new eye-glass prescription. Not having ordered from Reloptix before, I did not know what to expect. I feared bad glass or even worse, a prescription which was off... well, keep reading.
They came in the mail today. A little past estimated arrival date, but not too far off. I worried for nothing. Nailed my prescription spot-on!! It was pleasant to find the installation process to be easy and straightforward (I watched the video from their YouTube channel). Everything about the design of these screams DETAIL & QUALITY. Great engineering. Love the magnetic bases and snap-onto-mount design which perfectly lines up and stays in place.
It may possibly be some of the best money I have ever spent. I can now perfectly see while wearing the Quest 3 without the need for eye glasses. The glass is also very clear, which I am happy about. Now wearing the Quest 3 is very very comfortable and even better!
Would I order from Reloptix again? Most certainly! When I installed these and first looked through them, Reloptix literally made my day. Made me very happy. Let's face it, eye-glasses are a pain, but I feel a lot more freedom with these lenses and am absolutely over-joyed from this purchase. Now I can use the headset with comfort and clarity. Love the product they made and have delivered.
Thank you Reloptix!

Works as advertised
I was a bit confused on how to install the backing plates. Once you get them in the correct orientation they snap into place. I wish the lenses would adhere to the plate better. They fall of quite easily. Other than that I’m amazed at how clear they make the the view. Well done.

One of the things that I love the most about my reloptix prescription lens inserts is that I don't even think about them. May sound a little strange but what it means is when I pull off my glasses and put on my quest 3 The lenses are just there. Simple, easy, efficient and giving me a beautiful view in my headset. At first I wasn't sure about having to constantly pull my glasses off but measuring that against scratching either my glasses, which happened in the past before getting the reloptix lenses, or the lenses on my VR headset it's no contest. Thanks so much for making such a wonderful quality product that was so easy to order.

Glad I made the purchase. It's so nice to play my Quest 3 without wearing my glasses. Easier to install than my wife's VR-Rock lenes. Highly recommended!
