Prescription Eyewear

The VCE Optical Lab, based at the Fluvanna Correctional Center for Women, is Virginia’s trusted provider of prescription eyewear—serving state agencies, correctional institutions, juvenile justice facilities, and mission-minded nonprofit partners.

Prescription Eyewear

  • Trusted partner – We’re the primary eyewear vendor for the Virginia Department of Corrections (VADOC), Department of Juvenile Justice (DJJ), and other state entities.
  • High-volume capability with precision – Operating with modern, retail-grade optical equipment, we fulfill over 13,000 jobs annually with consistent quality and accuracy.
  • Mission-aligned workforce development – We incorporate hands-on training for justice-involved individuals (on average 10 participants per year) through a partnership with VADOC’s Optical Technologies program. Many trainees transition into careers in the optical industry.
  • Flexible and advanced offerings – From standard single-vision to bifocal, trifocal, and high-index lenses, plus premium options like anti-reflective coatings, tints, transitions, and more (with medical necessity documentation).
  • Safety-compliant designs – For nonprofits and government users, we offer a wide selection of safety frames (in partnership with Hoya). Inmate options are limited but meet essential safety and durability standards.
