1 hour optical service Mallorca: how it works

A qualified optometrist guides each test so we capture precise measurements and up‑to‑date prescriptions.

From vision check to finished glasses in a single visit

We break the visit into clear stages so you know what to expect. Each eye test takes 30 minutes, and we set realistic time slots for frame choice and lens preparation.

Arrival & test: history review, measurements and the core checks that define your prescription.

Selection & production: choose frames and lenses matched to your needs; we confirm options that can be turned around quickly.

Choosing the right lenses for your eyes and lifestyle

We match lenses to screen use, driving, reading and outdoor light to boost comfort and clarity. Our optometrist explains trade‑offs so you can decide fast.

When time allows, we recommend coatings that improve durability and reduce glare without delaying collection.

Quality checks we run before you leave

Before handover we adjust fit, check alignment and confirm comfort. We also run a visual verification so you can wear your glasses immediately.

On‑the‑day decision checklist: frame comfort, lens type, and essential add‑ons. This keeps the visit within the target timeframe and ensures confidence at collection.

Book an appointment or walk in for quick service

Reserve a slot online or drop by the shop — either way, we aim to get you seen quickly and clearly.

How to book in-store or online

You can book with us in person at Carrer de Pollèntia, 9, 07400 Alcúdia, Illes Balears or call Teléfono: 971 89 72 14. We also accept reservations via our online form for added convenience.

Walk-ins welcome, but booking ahead helps avoid waiting

Walk-ins are accepted when space allows. However, demand varies and booking ahead reduces waiting and improves your overall experience.

Tell us if your visit is urgent, if you wear contact lenses, or if you have a current prescription. These details help us prepare and speed up your visit.

How long your visit typically takes

Each eye test takes 30 minutes. Add time for frame selection, fitting and any rapid lens preparation. Plan your day around these steps.

To reduce waiting, arrive a few minutes early, bring existing glasses and decide which features matter most: speed, lens coatings or cost.

Our eye tests and eye health checks

Our eye checks focus on both vision clarity and the health of your eyes.

Each test is led by an expert optometrist and takes around 30 minutes. We keep the process efficient while covering key measures: visual acuity, refraction, pressure checks and retinal assessment.

eye

What happens during our eye test

We explain each step so you feel comfortable. First we check how well you see at distance and close range.

Next we measure eye pressure and view the back of the eye. Tests are painless and clear in their purpose.

Eye health screening: early signs of glaucoma, diabetes and macular degeneration

We look beyond basic sight to screen for conditions that can be silent in early stages.

Our exam can reveal early indicators of glaucoma, diabetic changes and macular degeneration. Early detection helps prevent progression.

What you’ll receive afterwards: prescription and recommendations

After the test we give an up‑to‑date prescription and plain‑English guidance.

You will also receive:

  • Clear next steps if further tests are needed.
  • Advice on eyewear options and timing for collection.
  • Follow-up suggestions tailored to your risk profile.

How often we recommend testing your eyes

We advise yearly testing for most adults. Those with family risk factors or diabetes may need more frequent checks.

Item checked Purpose Typical result
Visual acuity Measure clarity at different distances Updated prescription
Eye pressure Screen for glaucoma risk Normal or referral if raised
Retinal exam Detect diabetes signs and macular changes Advice or specialist referral

Contact lenses, glasses and preparation before your visit

A little preparation before you arrive helps us complete your checks and eyewear faster.

If you already wear glasses, bring them with you

Bring your current glasses so we can compare fit and see any wear patterns. This helps us confirm what is or isn’t working for comfort and clarity.

If you wear contact lenses: when to remove them before your appointment

Remove soft contact lenses at least 30 minutes before your visit and hard lenses 12 hours before. Doing so improves tear film stability and gives us accurate measurements for new lenses.

  • Follow our pre-visit checklist to speed up service and increase accuracy.
  • Bring any recent prescription details and note key use-cases — driving at night, screen work or reading — so we can recommend the best option quickly.
  • Removal timing matters because it affects measurement reliability; please follow the guidance rather than guessing.

Action-led note: follow these steps and we can move faster from assessment to ready-to-wear results. If you have questions before your visit, contact us and we will advise.

How optometrists and eye‑care specialists work together for better outcomes

Our optometrists measure visual quality and set precise optical correction for glasses or contact lenses. They lead the testing and define the prescription.

Ophthalmologists diagnose and treat wider eye conditions and take over when medical referral is needed. This multidisciplinary link gives comprehensive care.

Our approach: personalised, time‑efficient service

We position our team clearly: qualified optometrists and in‑store specialists work together to deliver fast outcomes without sacrificing accuracy.

  • Clear handoffs from testing to frame selection reduce delays and lower the risk of error.
  • Defined steps and accountability mean speed never equals a rushed exam.
  • Personalised guidance focuses on your lifestyle needs so you decide quickly and with confidence.

We align with established regional standards and signpost to specialist ophthalmology clinics (operating locally since 1998) when further care is required.

Who is the quick service ideal for?

We designed this option for busy people, holidaymakers and anyone needing urgent eyewear. It suits those with straightforward prescriptions, single-vision lenses or ready-to-wear reading glasses. If you have complex requirements, we’ll advise the best route and schedule follow-up care.

What can we help with regarding glasses, lenses and vision?

We supply prescription glasses, reading spectacles, sunglasses, and both soft and daily disposable contact lenses. Our team fits single-vision, bifocal and thin high-index lenses and offers advice on lens coatings, blue-light protection and sun protection for sensitive eyes.

How does the process work from test to finished glasses?

First, we perform a comprehensive eye examination. Next, you choose frames and lenses suitable for your prescription and lifestyle. Our onsite technicians then fit the lenses and finalise adjustments so you can collect your glasses in the same visit when possible.

How do we choose the right lenses for your eyes and lifestyle?

We discuss your daily activities, screen use, and visual priorities before recommending lens materials, coatings and designs. For example, we suggest thinner high-index lenses for stronger prescriptions and anti-reflective coatings for frequent screen users.

What quality checks do we run before you leave?

We verify the prescription, lens centration and frame alignment. We confirm visual comfort at typical working distances and make final adjustments to ensure proper fit, ensuring your new spectacles perform reliably from day one.

How can I book an appointment or walk in for quick service?

You can book online via our website or call us directly. Walk-ins are welcome, though booking ahead reduces waiting time. We’ll confirm availability and advise if you should allow extra time for more complex tests.

Are walk-ins accepted and is booking recommended?

Yes, we accept walk-ins, but we recommend booking to guarantee a short wait and immediate attention. Booking helps us allocate an optometrist and prepare suitable frames so your visit is efficient.

How long does a typical visit take?

Most visits for a standard vision check and simple spectacles take under two hours. If additional tests or bespoke lenses are required, we’ll explain expected timings and arrange the fastest possible turnaround.

What happens during our eye test?

Our optometrists assess visual acuity, refractive error and binocular vision. We screen eye health using fundus inspection and intraocular pressure checks where needed. The exam is comfortable and tailored to your age and medical history.

Do we screen for glaucoma, diabetes and macular degeneration?

Yes, we perform eye health screening to detect early signs of glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy and macular degeneration. When we find concerns, we refer you promptly to an ophthalmologist for advanced investigation and treatment.

What will I receive after the eye test?

You’ll get a clear prescription, personalised lens and frame recommendations, and written aftercare advice. We also explain follow-up intervals and how to manage any eye-health issues identified during the exam.

How often should we recommend testing your eyes?

We generally advise adults to have an eye test every two years, or annually if you have diabetes, glaucoma risk factors, progressive vision changes or wear contact lenses. Children and older adults may need more frequent checks.

What should you bring if you already wear glasses?

Please bring your current spectacles and any recent prescriptions. This helps us compare measurements, check lens performance and ensure continuity of vision during the transition to your new glasses.

What if you wear contact lenses—when should you remove them?

For accurate measurements, soft lenses should be removed at least 24 hours before your exam when possible; rigid gas-permeable lenses may require longer. If you must wear lenses to see, bring them plus a pair of spectacles.

Our optometrists collaborate closely with dispensing technicians and ophthalmology specialists when needed. This team approach ensures accurate prescriptions, precise fittings and prompt referrals for complex eye-health concerns.
