Eyebot and The Framery at 1-800 Contacts Debut End-to-End Optical Experience at CES 2026

A first look at the future of optical

LAS VEGAS, Jan. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- At CES 2026, Eyebot and The Framery at 1-800 Contacts will introduce a new end-to-end optical experience—marking the first public debut of a partnership that will roll out a custom retail experience later this year.

The CES activation represents the official partnership announcement for both companies, offering attendees an early look at how vision care and eyewear can be delivered faster, more accessibly, and with significantly less friction.

"This partnership is about removing barriers to vision care," said Matthias Hofmann, CEO of Eyebot. "At CES, we're showing how people can get a doctor-verified prescription and find great eyewear in one simple, accessible experience, and previewing what we'll bring to market later in 2026."

For the first time at CES, attendees will be able to move seamlessly from a rapid vision test to doctor-verified eyeglass prescription into curated eyewear selection—in just minutes.

"We are excited to debut our partnership with Eyebot at CES. For our entire 30-year history we have focused on delivering exceptional customer experiences in the vision care space. By combining that passion for the customer with Eyebot's cutting-edge technology we are creating a seamless experience that is convenient, accessible, and empowers customers to get glasses they will love with confidence and ease." - Amy Larson, President of The Framery at 1-800 Contacts

From Prescription to Glasses—In Minutes

At the center of the booth is Eyebot, a vision test kiosk that delivers a doctor-verified eyeglass prescription directly to a user's phone or inbox.

• No appointment
• No waiting room
• Fully reviewed by licensed eye doctors

Prescriptions will be free for all eligible CES attendees.

A Preview of What's Coming in 2026

Once attendees have their prescription, they'll step into The Framery Experience–a curated eyewear space designed by the vision care experts at 1-800 Contacts to make finding their perfect pair effortless.  Attendees can explore frames that fit their style, try them on in-person or virtually, and enjoy a 50% off CES exclusive discount. It's a beautifully simple way to go from prescription to ordering glasses - without the hassle of making an appointment at a doctor's office.

For select media and invited guests, Eyebot and The Framery will offer a VIP white-glove experience, demonstrating what the future of optical retail looks like when technology, clinical oversight, and thoughtful design come together.

This CES activation serves as a preview of a custom, permanent Eyebot × The Framery experience set to debut later in 2026.
