Liingo Eyewear becomes The Framery

While Liingo Eyewear dons a new name, it still maintains the same obsession with quality frames and zero tolerance for overpriced glasses.

So, why the name change? After joining the 1-800 Contacts family in 2017, Liingo continued offering sleek, stylish glasses online. But the team saw an opportunity to streamline and supercharge the brand experience, one that focused even more on you.

Here's how the timeline shakes out:

• 2017: Liingo Eyewear joins forces with 1-800 Contacts.

• 2024: Strategic rebranding begins.

• 2025: The Framery officially launches, bringing a fresh new name and vibe to Liingo's product line.

The Framery keeps the things you loved about Liingo, including their stylish frames, high-quality lenses, and free home try-ons, and builds on it with even better value and smarter tools. 

Who Owns Liingo Eyewear

Liingo Eyewear is owned by 1-800 Contacts. You read that right (assuming you've got your reading glasses on), Liingo has been part of the 1-800 Contacts family since 2017.

Liingo started out doing its own stylish, independent eyewear thing. Think trendy designs with a flair for affordability and a no-pressure home try-on experience (because let's be honest, trying on glasses at the mall under fluorescent lights is never the move). But then 1-800 Contacts came along, saw the sparkle in Liingo's lenses, and said, "We see you. Let's team up." And the rest is high-quality, low-hassle eyewear history.

Fast-forward to today, and Liingo Eyewear has transformed into The Framery. It's a new name, but the same mission applies: Offer stylish, affordable frames with the ease of online shopping. 

So, now you know: You can get stylish glasses from Liingo Eyewear (now The Framery) from the same people who made ordering contacts ridiculously simple.

Where is Liingo Eyewear located?

Since Liingo Eyewear is now The Framery and part of the 1-800 Contacts crew, it lives where 1-800 Contacts lives — at their snazzy headquarters in Draper, Utah. (If you're imagining majestic mountain views, you're not wrong.)

Here's the address, in case you're into sending thank-you notes or GPS stalking:

261 W Data Drive
Draper, UT 84020

Now, when it comes to where the actual frames are made — because we know you care about the details — The Framery sources frames from trusted, high-quality manufacturers. Some are crafted in the United States, others in Italy, and some come from other reputable global suppliers. (Yes, your glasses might technically be more well-traveled than you.)

So, while the HQ is cozy in Utah, The Framery's reach is worldwide, bringing you the best designs, materials, and quality from around the globe without the eyewear boutique price tag.

Wondering where The Framery glasses lab is based as well? Every pair of prescription glasses sold is hand-assembled from premium materials in Utah. Then triple-checked, balance-tested, and built to fit like a dream. 

Where to get glasses online

Now that you know who owns Liingo Eyewear, aka The Framery, let's get down to where you can get amazing glasses online without mortgaging your dignity — or your weekend.

Shopping at The Framery means:

• Seriously stylish frames at prices that don't cause sudden sweating
