You must use ClipHouse. Superb.

Both of our local labs offer to make custom clips. The price is very reasonable, and of great quality. The one we use most is GK optical, and the other is an EOLA Bell-Duffens.

LOL. Website is rather weak. But the clips are beyond good.Originally Posted by spartus
I have used E Clips for years.
Their toll free number is 800-463-2547
What kind of turnaround time can you usually expect? I may see if they can send me a sample or two...
Huge fan of E Clips as well, huge. Been using them for almost 10 years now..Originally Posted by hip chic

They can provide same day service if needed. Same day=they will create your clip & ship it the same day its received.
Customer service manager = Melissa.
You can make them in your lab as well. Ask Melissa for a Sample "Lab Starter Kit"
Great Product!!
I don't know why anyone would use anything but e-clips.
I don't know why anybody wants clip ons at all, aren't you all in the business to sell glasses. Why sell a hangover system when you can supply proper Rx sunglasses.Originally Posted by shanbaum
I used to use E-Clips--found something I like better. We have a sample E-Clip at the office, and, to me, it's faintly embarrassing to look at it compared to what we're getting now.
E-clips it is, we received the clip within 2 days of ordering and it fit and looked perfect
LOL Chris…There are people that despise sunglasses and we need to have visual solutions for "every" patient!! My father in-law for instance is one of them. He prefers his glasses to be Progressive with transitions, including several clip ons for different occasions vs. owning a pair or multiple pairs of sunglasses. Some people are truly set in their ways.Originally Posted by Chris Ryser
I have a few customers that are golfers and like that they can change their clip-on to a different hue for golfing and then change back to a hue for whatever conditions by purchasing 2 clip ons, sometimes 3 vs. owning multiple pairs of sunglasses.
Some men do not like carrying around MAN BAGS!!!
For the E Clips fans out there….
Not sure if you are aware but not only do the make Clips Ons, E Clips has a PLANOZ program.
For those of you that do not have a lab on the premises and hate the cost to have this done at the labs.
Ever have a person come into your office and their Plano Sunglass lenses are scratched and they are not interested in purchasing another pair of sunglasses? They want new lenses but the manufacture of their sunglass doesn’t sell replacement lenses. Or a customer wants a particular sunglass (that doesn’t come with polarized lenses) and wants Polarized lenses?
You have to try their Planoz Program = they will cut down any of their E Clips Sun lenses to the frame you send in. Excluding Grooved & Rimless frames. This has work very well for our office!!!!
They also have clear lenses in sphere plus powers as well & will place them in a clip for your patients that do not want a multifocal of any kind.
P.S. I love the fact that E Clips is owned and operated by a “true” Optician and that I can make use of this company in many ways vs. just having a clip made.

E Clips' #1 Fan..
what are you getting now?Originally Posted by spartus
These guys. Very, very pretty.
I've had very good results with OKO.
Anyone who gets nausea or headaches from switching between glasses...Originally Posted by Chris Ryser
No matter how closely matched my glasses are I still hate switching between sunglasses and my reg glasses- ugh that astigmatism can be evil to the head/tummy.
You dont know but you just invented a new argument against selling a full pair of new sunglasses.................................and sell a little clipon instead.Originally Posted by spec_chick
In the old days we used to call clip-ons "emergency solution" or for the ones that could not afford better.
:D
I invented it? Wohooo! Go me. Um, maybe, that is if I am looking to sell a clip!Originally Posted by Chris Ryser
Here is another one making clip ons..................

what I want to know is, who is the patent holder for the "clip-on" ??
Here I am giving you half of it....................Originally Posted by Snitgirl
Eyeglass holder clip, United States Patent 6533414
Abstract:The present invention provides a A clip for holding eyeglasses, comprising (a) a base having top and bottom portions; (b) a tongue having a top part connected to the top portion of said base, said tongue extending downward to lie near said bottom portion of said base, said base and tongue being a one-piece member with said tongue in relaxed state lying in or close to the plane of said base, said tongue being resiliently bendable away from said plane of said base, said tongue having a bottom portion with a terminal edge, and upward from that edge an aperture; (c) a jump ring extending through said aperture in said tongue and situated generally perpendicular to said tongue; and (d) a holding ring interlinked with said jump ring and lying generally parallel to said plane of said base.
this is something that was designed to hold your eyeglasses so you do not loose them, correct? <--This is not for a sunglass clip on..
There are more than 2 dozens of clip-on sunglasses patent holders in this country.
We use 1800 Clip Ons. They are the ones who use the cell phone and clips are sent 1-3 days depending on what we request.
Patients have loved them and they are the most personalable people I have ever dealt with. When their office was ruined by the hurrican, the president called accounts to let them know what was going on:D
their phone number is 1800-254-7667
good luck
