OWNDAYS Parkway Parade is the Katong branch of OWNDAYS, the eyewear brand known for quick in-house lens work and a wide, easy-to-browse range of glasses. Located on basement one of the Parkway Parade shopping centre along Marine Parade Road, the store covers the full optical spectrum: eyeglasses for men, women and kids, sunglasses, contact lenses in clear and colour options, Ortho-K lenses, and a lineup of accessories that includes the playful ZOOTOPIA | OWNDAYS collaboration.
What draws many customers in is the lens replacement counter. Bring in spectacles you can no longer wear — whether the prescription has changed or the lenses are damaged, and even if the frames were bought at another shop — and the team will assess the frame, run a complimentary eye test and fit new lenses. When lenses are in stock, glasses can be ready in as little as 20 minutes, and every order is backed by a one-year warranty on lens visual performance under the OWNDAYS Customer Guarantees programme.
The lens menu goes well beyond the basics: premium anti-glare and ultra-thin options, blue-light filters such as BlueNyte, BlueHive and Japan SV Bluelight, Transitions light-adaptive lenses, polarised and anti-fog lenses, progressive designs from entry-level up to Japan Progressive DAS and ZEISS Light 3D, and Myopia Control 3.0 lenses. Add regular campaigns like second-pair discounts and outlet sales, and it is a practical, friendly stop for anyone in the Marine Parade area needing glasses fixed, replaced or freshly fitted.
Step onto basement one of Parkway Parade and you'll find one of the East Coast's most convenient optical stops: OWNDAYS Parkway Parade, the Katong branch of the eyewear brand known for fast, in-house lens work and a refreshingly simple way to buy glasses. From unit #B1-96/97/98 on Marine Parade Road, the store serves Marine Parade, Katong and the surrounding neighbourhoods with the brand's full range of frames, lenses and eye care services.
Start with the frames. The eyeglasses wall covers men, women and kids, spanning bestsellers, new arrivals and house lines such as OWNDAYS | AIR and OWNDAYS | ESSENTIAL, with regular sale campaigns like second-pair discounts and outlet sales. Sunglasses for men and women are here too, along with contact lenses in clear and colour options, Ortho-K lenses, and accessories that include the ZOOTOPIA | OWNDAYS collaboration. Gift cards make an easy present for anyone due a new pair.
What OWNDAYS is really known for, though, is its lens replacement service — and it does exactly what it promises. If you own spectacles you cherish but can no longer use, whether your prescription has changed or the lenses are damaged, you can bring them in and have new lenses fitted. Glasses originally bought at other shops are equally welcome.
The process is deliberately simple. Staff first assess the condition of your frame and recommend the most suitable solution, which may involve replacing the lenses, cleaning them, or adjusting the fitting — sometimes the frame itself is the better thing to replace. A complimentary eye test is part of the package, so you can walk in without a prescription; if you would rather keep your current lens strength, bring your existing glasses or any record of it and the team can match it.
When the lenses you need are in stock, your glasses can be ready in as little as 20 minutes after payment. More specialised work takes longer: rimless frames require precision edging and may need a few days, while option lenses and certain prescriptions take roughly seven working days, with colour and progressive lenses — being custom-made — sometimes needing up to about two weeks. Every order is backed by a one-year warranty on lens visual performance under the OWNDAYS Customer Guarantees programme.
The upgrade menu is broad enough to reward a little browsing. Everyday favourites include premium anti-glare lenses with 99% UV protection, anti-reflection, scratch resistance and dust repellence, and ultra-thin 1.74 lenses that suit high prescriptions. Heavy screen users can look at BlueNyte, BlueHive or the Japan SV Bluelight range, which cuts HEV blue light in the 400–420nm band while preserving natural colour vision.
For the sun, there are Transitions GEN S and XTRActive lenses — including the New Generation and Polarized versions — plus PhotoShade light-responsive lenses, polarised options and colour tints in grey, brown, green or blue. Wearers managing presbyopia can choose from Enhanced Progressive, the Prestige range, the Japan Progressive DAS with its double-surface aspheric design, or ZEISS Light 3D and 3Dv lenses customised to individual visual habits. Myopia Control 3.0 lenses are available for those who want help managing myopia progression.
Whatever you pick, the fundamentals stay constant: all OWNDAYS lenses are produced by major Japanese manufacturers and come with UV protection and anti-reflective coating as standard.
Because the shop sits inside Parkway Parade, it slots easily into a mall errand run — collect your glasses after lunch, or drop off a pair before browsing the rest of the centre. Eye tests can be booked in advance through the OWNDAYS website, and staff are happy to assess an old frame on the spot and tell you whether it can take new lenses.
Whether you need a first pair, a backup, a new lease of life for glasses you already love, or simply a lens swap done while you shop, the Parkway Parade branch makes the whole process quick, transparent and guaranteed.
