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 approached Will with his ideas and the two agreed to partner up on a solution. Something that was aesthetically pleasing like traditional eyewear but, also ergonomic and keeping the user in mind.
Why not provide the absolute best, even if it means sacrificing a little profit

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 customer, 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, a eventual final production model was agreed upon.
Jason and Will then focused on establishing production and creating a Kickstarter campaign for funding. This campaign unfortunately was not successful but, instead of getting discouraged they persevered on a small budget and reached out to several of the Kickstarters to see if they we're still interested and started Reloptix.com.
2021
Early Success
Design and production was completely home grown the basement of Jason's house becoming a lens lab and Will home office becoming a design studio. From their already established names as VR users in the burgeoning online VR community, word of mouth sales started happening.
VR groups and influencers started to take notice and Reloptix started to make a name for itself in the VR community for its quality and customer service.

Summary: The lenses are superb. Better than my glasses! The hard case they came in was impressive, a premium product feel.
Delivery: Yes, there is a bit of a wait from order to delivery, but the team kept me updated throughout.
Product: Upon arrival I was wowed by the delivery case. The lenses arrived in velvet bags each inside an impressive hard case. Definitely a premium feel.
That being said, if that is where a chunk of the price is going, I think it could be scaled back. Once the lenses are fitted to the headset they aren't going to be coming off that often.
The lenses: Easy to fit (although they had been delivered in the wrong L & R bags) and really good quality, crystal clear. They fit as shown in the video guide, simple.

I ordered lens for my MetaQuest 3. I do have astigmatism so I knew that it might take a little longer. But, it was worth the wait. The lens fit perfectly and I no longer have to wear my glasses. They matched the prescription perfectly and I could not be happier. Thanks Reloptix!

Crystal clear and already easier on my eyes. So far have been very beneficial to reducing headaches and seeing clearer. Quick and easy to install and if I need to order more, they can be swapped on a dime.
The lens fits in perfectly, is also easy to install, and doesn't mess with your vision. They provide a clear view and come with a nice kit that includes a cloth and a sticker to put wherever you desire. I just love the quality of these lenses. Overall, a very good company to order from. Thank you!

Now I can finally use my quest like it was meant to be
Installation was super easy, love the care and case the lenses came with, the communication from the team handling my prescription was great, the i formed me that I needed special order lenses and gave me the option of continuing or canceling which I appreciated. It took a little bit longer because of that but once I recieved them and started using them it was completely worth it!

Great product and company
How refreshing to find a company that delivers what it promises. From the website ordering, follow up emails and the great prescription lenses I received, it was a pleasure doing business with you. My only minor critique would be, do the lenses really need such a large plastic case that they come in? Half the size would be plenty big enough in my opinion. Anyway, thanks again for a great product and service. Highly recommended!
Absolutely perfect! Reloptix got my RX perfectly - now I can see out of my Quest just as well as if I was wearing glasses, but without any of the discomfort. I can't believe I didn't buy these sooner.

Excellent!
Unknown to me, I didn’t provide the proper prescription that I use. Reloptix emailed me as soon as they received the order and mentioned it me, luckily. Once I got the proper document from my optometrist, I sent it to them and they confirmed that this was the correct document. Less than a week later, I received the lenses. Excellent service! I had been using my reading glasses with my Quest 3. What a difference! Definitely worth every penny. Clear to the edges.

Love my lenses
These are so easy to use. I normally wear contacts but, by the end of the day my eyes are so tired, I just want to take them out. I had other lenses for my headset that just were a pain to pop in and out. With my new lenses I'm not forced to wear my contacts if I decide to play later in the evening.

Great addition to the Quest 3
I never liked wearing my glasses while playing with my Quest 3 but I could never get things really clear. With these inserts I can seen perfectly with no change to the way the headset feels or functions. Great addition, highly recommend

Contact lens users take care !
It took 5 weeks between order placement and delivery (by DHL) of my prescription lenses but I was well aware it would take this long and was fine with that as I had seen many excellent reviews. I normally wore contact lenses and thought I should get my eyes retested for an up to date prescription and told my optician what it was for, while also getting a pair of glasses for general use in the evenings, etc. I sent the prescription to Reloptix when I placed my order.
However, a few weeks later I noticed that my vision wasn't as good and the optician said the contact lenses had changed the shape of my eyes, especially the right one, by flattening the front of it. I then realised that, when the Reloptix lenses arrived, they would not be in perfect focus either. The optician then gave me a new prescription since my eyes had then settled, and I placed another order with Reloptix which arrived much quicker (using UPS this time). She also explained that if I wore my contact lenses again then the eyes would change shape again to the "old" prescription and the first Reloptix lenses would be in focus ok. But, so far, I haven't gone back to wearing contacts.
Jason and Will have been great about all of this and even gave discount for my extra set with the new prescription as well as discount on my daughters non- prescription lenses to protect her headset lenses. Excellent customer support !
As for the lenses themselves, they are really good. Excellent sturdy packaging to begin with, very easy to click in the base section for each lens and then the magnetic lens itself attached easily to the base and has a strong magnetic grip with no danger of it falling out. As for my vision with the new prescription, everything is perfectly sharp. I can also easily switch over to my daughter's headset if I need to, just by swapping the magnetic lenses over. I'm really glad I got them, and Reloptix seems like a great company to deal with. I'll be dealing with them again when my wife gets her eyes tested and gets her prescription, as we've three Meta Quest 3 headsets in the house !
