Overview
Mister Spex sells prescription glasses, sunglasses and contact lenses through online shops and physical optician stores in Europe. Its service links digital frame selection with in-person advice, so shoppers move between a website and a local store when choosing eyewear and arranging follow-up adjustments. Customers use virtual fitting tools to compare frames, while store teams and partner opticians handle eye tests, fitting and adjustments. The business earns money from eyewear and contact lens sales, with prescription lenses tailored to each customer's vision needs and preferences. Founded in 2007, Mister Spex is headquartered in Berlin, Germany.
