LensCrafters agreed to pay $39 million to settle a lawsuit by prescription eyeglass customers who accused the eyewear chain of misleading them about how well its Accufit technology could measure their eyes.
A preliminary settlement of the nearly six-year-old class- action lawsuit was filed on Monday night in federal court in Brooklyn, and requires a judge's approval.
Customers said the claims were false because LensCrafters' manufacturing processes did not support its claims, and that an update would not be clinically significant. The settlement covers all U.S. customers of LensCrafters who since Sept. 5, 2013, bought prescription glasses after being fitted with Accufit. They are eligible to receive up to $50 for each pair.The company denied wrongdoing and stood by the quality of its eyewear, but settled to avoid the cost, inconvenience and distraction of further litigation, court papers show.
