Santinelli On-Site Edging at Our Canton Optical Lab
Most people never think about what happens after they pick out frames. The lenses still have to be cut — edged — to the exact shape of those frames. That step decides whether your glasses sit true, stay comfortable and deliver the prescription your eye doctor wrote.
At Bolt Eye Group, edging is not outsourced by default. Canton is our centralized on-site optical lab, and we edge with Santinelli precision edgers — equipment from a company widely recognized as a leader in precision lens edging.
Why on-site edging matters
- Quality control stays here — our optical team checks the cut, the fit and the finish before glasses leave the building.
- Measurements and cut stay linked — Optikam digital fitting numbers and the Santinelli cut live on the same workflow, instead of a handwritten ticket disappearing into a distant wholesale lab.
- Fast turnaround without same-day pressure — glasses are not same-day, but because the lab is on-site in Canton, turnaround is very quick compared with shipping every job out of state.
Santinelli: precision cutting for modern lenses
Today’s free-form and high-definition lenses are calculated to fractions of a millimeter. An imprecise edge can throw off optical centers, leave stress in the lens or force a remake. Santinelli edgers are built for that precision work — cutting lenses to the exact shape and bevel your frames need so the finished pair matches the design your optician measured.
How it fits with Optikam
Think of two halves of the same promise:
- Optikam measurements tell the lab exactly how your frames sit on your face (far beyond a Sharpie marker on demo lenses).
- Santinelli edging cuts the lenses to that plan, on-site in Canton, under Bolt Eye Group’s quality check.
Together they support the high-definition and progressive lenses patients ask for — and they are a big reason we keep the Canton lab central for Bolt offices.
