The Accufit class action settlement payment distribution is expected in April 2025. The class members who filed the claim form last year are expected to receive compensation from the $39 million fund.
The New York Eastern District federal court granted the final approval order on 27 September 2024, as the final hearing was held on 27 March 2024. The class action involves the defendant LensCrafters, the plaintiff claiming they have violated the laws as they made AccuFit system misrepresentation materials, which say it was five times more effective than traditional methods.
The plaintiffs allege that the claims were false, making them ineffective, as they claim, and customers paid more due to such claims. The defendant denies the allegations but has agreed to settle the lawsuit with a settlement fund. The class members can now expect compensation of up to $50 anytime soon.

Who is eligible?
The US resident who meets the following eligibility criteria will receive the upcoming payout of the AccuFit class action settlement:
- You live in the US and bought the prescription eyeglasses from LensCrafters in the US between class period, 05 September 2013 to 20 September 2023, after it was fitted with AccuFit.
- The class members who have filed the claim before the deadline of 26 April 2025.
Exclusion:
- The LensCrafters employees, directors, officers, legal representatives, affiliated companies, successors, and heirs are excluded from the settlement.

Settlement Payout Amount
The $39 million settlement fund of the AccuFit class action will be first used to cover the administration cost, Class Counsel expenses, attorney’s fees & costs, Service awards for class representatives for bringing this case to the court, and other administrative expenses.
After the administration has deducted the above-mentioned expenses, the remaining funds (net settlement fund) will be used to provide compensation to the class members with approved claims. The net settlement fund will be allocated in equal proportion among the class members with valid claims.
According to the settlement administrator’s estimate, the approved claims class members can expect a payout of $50 for each set of prescribed glasses they bought from LensCrafters during the class period. So, the higher the purchase of the prescribed glasses from LensCrafters, the higher the payout amount.
Payment Method
The AccuFit settlement class members who have submitted the claims form online or postmarked before the deadline can expect the payment to be processed digitally via email. The administrator will send the payout based on the valid email address and mobile phone number you entered in the claim form.
The administrator will process the payment digitally based on the method you have selected while claiming the settlement. However, if your claim information is changed, it’s your responsibility to inform the administrator about the change and get the payment to the right destination.
