Now powered glasses will also reach home in 10 minutes, service started in these cities

Blinkit announced on Friday that it will now deliver Lenskart's powered glasses in India immediately. This facility has been initiated in certain major cities of the country at the moment and will be expanded gradually to other locations. In this, numerous frame alternatives shall be provided in various color schemes. At present, only a few power alternatives can be chosen from the pre-set dropdown list. Earlier in the year, this fast commerce platform began rapid delivery of Apple devices, Xiaomi phones, Nokia feature phones, and computer products.

Blinkit founder and CEO Albinder Dhindsa (@albinder) posted on X (formerly Twitter) on Friday that Blinkit is now providing quick delivery of Lenskart-powered spectacles as well. He said that their delivery will also be completed in just 10 minutes like other products available on the platform.

Dhindsa also said that customers will not need a prescription to order. They will only have to open the Blinkit app and select their lens power from the dropdown menu, then select the color of choice and checkout. Currently, the preset power options include -0.25, -0.5, -0.75, -1.0 and -1.5. The company did not say whether more power options will be added in the future.

Lenskart's powered spectacles are currently available in Delhi-NCR, Bangalore, Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kolkata and Mumbai with 10-minute delivery. It is expected that this service will gradually be started in more cities across India.

Blinkit started the delivery of Airtel SIM cards in 10 minutes in select Indian cities at a fee of Rs 49 in April. Under this service, customers can activate the SIM instantly through Aadhaar-based digital KYC, which eliminates the need for paperwork. It supports both prepaid and postpaid plans and also provides the option to port numbers from other networks to Airtel.

Quick delivery of computer accessories from brands like HP and Apple laptops, Lenovo, Zebronics, MSI and Canon is also available in many Indian cities through Blinkit.
