What you find on Seecly

The frames come from individuals in France, opticians (stock), or manufacturers (previous collections). All listings are filtered; only frames in "Good condition" to "Nine" are offered. The original case of the frame will be sent if provided by the seller in good condition, otherwise, a Seecly case and a microfiber cloth will be provided.

- Nine: New frame from a professional seller's clearance.
- In mint condition : Hardly ever worn, no defects.
- Very good condition: Some discreet micro-scratches.
- Good condition: Visible signs of wear.
The condition of a frame is defined by the seller when listing it, not by Seecly.
Please check the photos and descriptions. You can contact the seller for more details or zoomed photos, and negotiate the price via "contact the seller" on the product page.
If a major defect is detected, not presented in the listing, our Workshop will contact you to decide whether to proceed with the transaction.

The right size
To simplify size interpretation, we have implemented a size correspondence in letters (S, M, L, etc.) on Seecly.
The frame size refers to the horizontal width measured between the two hinges. You can measure this width on your current frame to determine your size and refer to the chart available in the size guide on each product page.
Use this correspondence to filter the catalog and find the perfect pair of glasses for your face.
You can also refer to the sizes noted (usually on the left temple) of your current glasses and ask the seller for the sizes indicated on the selected frame (e.g., 52¤18).
Lenses
Optical frames:
- The old corrective lenses are removed.
- The new lenses will be installed if you ordered a prescription pack.
Sun frames:
- Delivered with their original sun lenses.
- Order tinted corrective lenses (category 3/100% UV) in green, brown, or gray. Indicate the tint in the email with your prescription. By default, the original color will be ordered (excluding gradient).
- To replace non-corrective sun lenses, select from our packs and specify that no correction is needed.
The pupillary distance considered will be the one specified by your ophthalmologist on your prescription, otherwise average centering will be applied.
To change only the lenses while keeping your frame, order your lenses pack alone in "Replace my lenses" send us your glasses with the prepaid label you will receive, and your prescription to [email protected]. Learn more.
