Our Laboratory

At ACT Optical we possess our own fully functioning surfacing laboratory; here we manufacture optical lenses from raw materials to the highest standards in aspheric forms. We are the only optical store in the ACT to own a surfacing laboratory. This allows us the right resources and capabilities to be specialists in high and unusual prescriptions and to also offer same day service.

Our surfacing laboratory is capable of producing any kind of combinations of ophthalmic lenses, including different materials, designs and powers.

We manufacture many different types of lenses, including but not limited to, high prescription single vision, polarised, vocational lenses, bifocal and progressive lenses. Tinting services are also provided, including UV coating.

Due to our fully functioning surface laboratory, we are able to source only the highest quality lenses available for our clientele, without the hefty price tag.

We receive our lens blanks from Essilor Australia, who manufacture their lenses here in Australia. This allows for only the highest standards of quality control to be administered.
