About Us

A Little About Us

We’re a team of engineers from San Diego, California, and Shanghai, China, brought together by something we all share: myopia and a love for sports. We’re not just a company—we’re people who know what it’s like to squint through a game or struggle to find glasses that keep up with an active life. That’s why we started PandaOptical: to create prescription glasses, sunglasses, and sports eyewear that are as reliable as they are affordable, so you can see every moment clearly.

Our Supply Chain

For over five years, we’ve been working hard to bring you eyewear we’re proud of. From our base in Del Mar, San Diego, we dream up designs that fit your life, while our partners in China—some of the best in the business—bring them to reality. 

We want you to know exactly where your glasses come from, and we’re not afraid to say it: like many companies, we manufacture in China. We’re open about this because we’ve got nothing to hide. Our production happens in places like Danyang, Shenzhen, and Xiamen—regions known for their top-notch eyewear craftsmanship. But it’s not just about quality for us; it’s about people too.

We’ve carefully chosen our suppliers to make sure the folks making your glasses are treated right. That means safe working conditions, fair treatment, and respect for the people behind the process. We don’t just pick anyone—we visit these places, meet the teams, and ensure they share our commitment to doing things the right way. It’s how we keep our promise to you: great glasses, made responsibly.

Quality You Can Count On

Every pair we send out comes with a promise: if you’re not happy, we’ll fix it. It’s that simple. We stand behind our work with a 100% satisfaction guarantee because we want you to feel as good about your glasses as we do. Whether you’re hitting the trails, catching rays, or just enjoying the day, we’ve got frames that match your vibe—sports-ready, stylish, or both.

Here for You

PandaOptical is more than a name to us—it’s a community of folks who care about seeing the world clearly and living it fully. We’re humbled to be part of your journey, and we’d love for you to join us. Let’s make every view a little sharper, together.
