Editorial Policy

Editorial Independence

GlassesGuide operates with complete editorial independence. No brand, advertiser, or affiliate partner influences what we publish.

• Paid placement must be identified; it is not presented as an editorial comparison
• Advertisers do not receive approval rights over editorial conclusions
• Affiliate relationships are disclosed and do not create a numeric score or ranking
• We do not claim a purchase, sample or hands-on test without a retained evidence record
• All affiliate relationships are disclosed on our Disclosure page

Accuracy & Corrections

We use a source-led process and state what still needs current verification:

• Product and policy details are attributed to retailer or manufacturer pages
• Like-for-like cost comparisons use the same prescription, options and destination
• Independent sources are preferred for performance or health claims when available
• Time-sensitive details are labelled for checkout verification rather than treated as permanent
• A page date changes only after a substantive editorial review; it is not generated automatically
• Report errors to [email protected]; corrections are reviewed as soon as practical

Content Updates

Prescription-eyewear listings and policies change frequently. Updates are triggered by evidence, not an unsupported freshness promise:

• Price or promotion claims are removed, dated or rechecked when a current source is available
• Policy changes prompt a review of affected comparison fields
• Substantive product changes prompt a new listing and specification check
• Reader corrections are assessed against the current primary source
• Stale details are qualified or removed when they cannot be reverified

Our Team

GlassesGuide is independently operated and publishes general eyewear buying information. Pages are based on cited or attributable public information and editorial comparison fields. We do not claim clinical expertise, purchases or hands-on testing without a retained evidence record, and the content does not replace advice from a qualified eye-care professional.
