In addition to LensCrafters’ over 900 in-store labs, Luxottica
operates three central lens surfacing/finishing labs in North
America and an additional lab based in China dedicated to
its North American optical retail. Leveraging the combined
network capabilities, Luxottica lens operations reduce the
time and cost to surface and finish lenses while improving the
quality of service. All labs use state-of-the-art technologies
to meet growing demand. The central laboratories serve all
Luxottica’s North American optical retail stores.
In addition, the Group operates Oakley optical lens
laboratories in the United States, Ireland and Japan. These
labs provide Oakley prescription lenses to the North and
Latin America, European and Asian markets, enabling them
to achieve expeditious delivery, better quality control and
higher optical standards.
Most of the Australian laboratory’s needs are provided by
the Eyebiz laboratory, a joint venture between Luxottica and
Essilor formed in February 2010.
