same day glasses?

Hey, I broke my glasses frames yesterday, and am though my husband was able to repair them with superglue, I'm not confident in how long they will hold up.

I seem to recall that LensCrafters can make glasses on the same day you visit them (though I could be wrong), and am wondering a) if anybody can confirm this, and b) whether there are any local eyeglass places that provide the same service.

I know that 241 Optical in Harvard Sq. does — a friend of mine had her own glasses emergency a couple of years ago, and I took her there. It took them a couple of hours I think. She got two pairs of glasses for about $200 I think.

Thanks for this. Ended up going to Lenscrafters after all, but will be good to know if I end up in a similar situation again!
