Tints

At CR Labs, we take great care to ensure the highest standards in lens tinting. All tints are applied using precise processes to achieve consistent quality.

  • Manufacturing Warranty: Tints are covered under warranty only if there is a confirmed manufacturing fault (e.g., incorrect colour applied, uneven tinting, or faulty application).
  • Colour Preferences: Tints requested to match a specific shade are considered custom. Variations may occur due to lens material, index, thickness, or lighting conditions. For this reason, warranties do not cover dissatisfaction with colour preference, personal perception of shade, or change of mind.
  • Remakes: Requests for remakes due to dissatisfaction with tint colour, depth, or tone will be treated as new orders and charged accordingly.
  • Samples & Guidance: Where possible, please provide a physical tint sample for our tint department to replicate as closely as possible. If no physical sample is provided, our tint department will apply their professional discretion when matching colour tones and densities (if not otherwise specified). While every effort is made to achieve the closest possible match, final results may vary slightly from samples due to lens material, thickness, and other factors.
  • Match Tint: While every effort is made to achieve a consistent match between lenses, please note that an exact match cannot be guaranteed. This is especially the case with lenses that have an anti-reflective (AR) coating which can influence the final appearance of the tint.

By proceeding with a tint order, you acknowledge and accept these conditions.
