Wow my glasses cost almost $300 and you are telling me I can get some online for $50-$70? I have been getting hosed by my eye doctors and lenscrafters!
Yep! A company called Luxottica is screwing you. They have a monopoly on the glasses industry. Read the pinned comment.
My favorites glasses cost me 6 plus the anti reflective layer 4,95 and also opted for antioleophobic layer too another 5 bucks then shipping all it was 22 bucks on zenni, my first pairs ofcourse were from the recommended store by the doctor and they were 250$ and they even were worst quality than this cheap ones, since i knew this type of sites never been in a store anymore.
Taylor I paid $500 once 😭. Today I’m finally ordering online :)
Yeah I pay about £96 and that includes shipping and also all the mod cons on the lenses also like literally all the coatings anti scratch anti glare uv400 and blue light coating and high impact Kodak lenses also
you can get some for 6 dollars on zenni thats where i get mine lol
Zenni is the best! Just got mine back, $40 for 2 pair of glasses is unheard of. You can't beat it!
They are awesome!
Robert Gray how many days was the shipping
@@knk4lmjm828 I think it was 5 days.
They any good?
@@selinamelc9975 Yep, quality frames too. I got them on right now...............I wish I knew about them years ago. $200-$300 for a pair of glasses is just highway robbery and I been wearing glasses since high school.
Wow I got my glasses costed $200 and I found the exact model in the websites you mentioned it costed around $50-$20
Bruh.. These sites might just be saving my life.
Lol thank you, no bs. This video deserves to be upvoted wayyyyy more than it is!
Thank you for the good info and keep the good content rollin : )
- Axxo
You explained everything very well, I had no idea the size was printed on the arm of my current glasses. Thanks a lot.
Aw I love the ones from zenni on you, they look great!
i just paid 25 dollars for my glasses. THANK YOU
Which website
I've been using zenni optical for years, their frames start at $6.95 they are alot cheaper than eye doctor offices
$100 for plastic? that's nothing lol my 2nd pair of prescription glasses were $600 (they even came with a free case!) and they weren't even anything "fancy" like transition lenses. i was so glad when i found zenni because i knew i was getting hosed for my prescription lenses. i think people feel trapped because they don't realize you can use your prescription anywhere, it's not like a drug prescription, they're just angles of glass or whatever so you could even give a company someone else's prescription and they don't care, you still get your glasses.
Yep, that's exactly right. Glad you are happy with Zenni! They are my favorite site.
I feel the same hundreds of dollars for a pair of glasses in the past. Was being taken advantage of for sure.
I have paid that much as well. I was going with Zenni, but they've raised their prices so I'm shopping around for a new company.
Zenni is the best! Just got mine back, $40 for 2 pair of glasses is unheard of. You can't beat it!
After posting my ire to social media, Zenni gave me full credit toward another pair of glasses. Hooray for social media! In the past, I would have been out of luck. I will not order the same frames, though.
*Spring hinges aren't popular because not only do they cost extra; but they add needless forward weight and needless clamping pressure that can be uncomfortable as your body changes. It's also something else that can break. Simplicity can be beautiful even if it's not snappy.*
Fair point! My current frames don't have spring hinges and are comfortable.
I bought my first from Zenni. They have blue block, progressive and AR coating. They cost me $120 at Walmart they cost $480. I liked them so much I bought a pair of sunglasses for $25. They are dark and progressive with AR coating. I love them!!!!
Helpful video,as a almost life long wearer of eyeglasses(prescription) and contacts, got tired of the high prices of eyeglasses @the optical,eyeglasses shouldn't be so expensive especially if you need them(medically) so now shopping around online.
My entire experience with PG has been the worst customer service experience I have ever had. I have been in upper management and very aware of the importance of customer satisfaction, unfortunately, PG does not share that philosophy. I would guess the main concern a customer has about purchasing eyeglasses online is "what if there is a problem", will there be a hassle in getting an exchange/refund? I ordered a pair of glasses for my husband ( total was $94), and after doing so realized I had not selected his "saved" prescription, but my own. This was on a Friday night. I immediately called the following day (Saturday) and was told the order was being processed in the lab (which I did not believe). After explaining my issue to the representative she did say they would issue a "one time 100% store exchange". Great, I thought, as I did not wish to have a refund. I ended up selecting a better fitting frame for my husband, which was less expensive.
Because the representative stated there was a 100% store exchange, I proceeded to select a pair of prescription sunglasses as well. The revised order came out to $104 (more than the original order). In my next conversation with the representative, I specifically asked if the credit could be used for "additional items", which she replied "yes". After giving her my replacement glasses info as well as the other product info., she then tells me the 100% store exchange can only be used for one pair of glasses and if I selected a replacement pair that was less, I would forfeit the remaining credit???? WHAT??? I challenged her on the policy as it made no sense. since I did not want a refund but only to use my full credit. Rather than explain the purpose of the policy, she continued to repeat, "I'm sorry, but this is our policy" She could have cared less that about customer satisfaction, so I asked to speak with a supervisor, at which point she indicated she was the supervisor (obviously not a properly trained one, because after reviewing the return policy of PG, nowhere does it state only one pair of glasses could be used in an exchange situation. In fact, it says the exact opposite (100% Store Exchange).
I have written a letter to someone in a higher position and we'll have to wait to see what happens. I advise anyone who wishes to purchase eyeglasses online, stay far away from PG. I ended up using EyeBuyDirect for a pair of glasses for my daughter and received excellent customer service.
Great review! I'm not kidding when I say that if I'm trying, I could get five pairs from these online retailers for the price of one in a physical store in Canada
I paid 504 for my single vision. I paid 140cad for 3 pairs of glasses from Zenni, 1 being custom mirrored sunglasses. Way better prices.
My optometrist office quoted me $427 for a pair of single vision glasses in the least expensive frames they had. The only upgrades I asked for were anti-reflective coating and polycarbonate lenses.
I came home and ordered two pair from Zenni with better frames. My total, including shipping was $47.75. That included $4.95 shipping and a $5 off coupon. The glasses were $23.90 per pair. I could have bought 17 pair for $406.30, added $4.95 for shipping ($411.25 total) and had $15.75 left over from the $427.
We all have our differences on glasses. I have Firmoo glasses and haven’t had a problem with them. They have such stylish high quality glasses! I know it’s from china, but not all their products are fake. 💁🏻♀️
Super informative, thank you for comparing different sites and giving us an honest review, plus the tips and tricks and the end were helpful.
bro, this is an excellent review thanks for making this video. Which site do you recommend for sport prescription sunglasses? I lose or trash them all the time but they cost so much.
Justmyopinionlol I got mine from GlassesShop and they are still working great for me. I got some regular glasses and paid another $10 to have the tinted lenses put in. Great bang for the buck.
You may try Glasseslit. The price and quality is amazing.
I ordered now, 4 pairs from them and they are amazing. Every single pair they nailed. 350.00 at Walmart, now $69. Are you kidding.
It’s not just plastic it takes about 4 days to make them they have to design them so they refract light into your eyes correctly-_- and they have to cure and the machines that they use to make them are u guessed expensive try having an eye thing where your eye muscles don’t relax (as in you can’t focus) and what I have is called fractal hyperopia (:
I love Ibuydirect, best quality frames for the lowest price but they just need to up their game when it comes to polarized lenses, zenni has so many options it's not even funny. And what were your frames from Zenni?
Max77 Frame #4419623
I found your first two, Eyebuydirect and Glassesshop to be MORE expensive for me than Zenni or Payne. When you get up to needing a high index for a -7 in both eyes, EyebuyDirect and Glassesshop SOAK you for it. I can get a decent pair of glasses from Zenni and Payne for $72 and a similar pair would push me over $120 at the first 2 with the same high index and blueblock features.
are eyebuydirect lenses aspheric or spheric?
@@Viewer13128 Not sure why you are asking me, I use Zenni.
@@thedoctor7158 ah, just thought you researched the costs and materials for all and Zenni came out on top, so you might know. I already asked Zenni so I didn't ask here.
@@Viewer13128 All I did was research price to fit my needs. No clue what aspheric or spheric is.
Got my first pair for $579 from local store and $120 from zenni as a spare pair
Thank you so much man!!!! I will cancel my Lenscrafters order tomorrow = $360!!! .....not anymore.
That's crazy! Did they have a blue light blocking coating or something driving the price up?
Insurance with vsp who owns eyeconic.com. same glasses and frames of 2 years ago for 340 at eyeglass store under same insurance, is 120 if u use their online store. Unbelievable mark down. Vsp has cracked the code in bring an affordable way to get glasses.
I have bought like 6 pair from Zenni and I love them all and prescriptions are dead on! I hate the blue blocker coating on them though
Yeah, Zenni is the best! Interesting, why do you not like the coating?
Christian Taylor it gives the glasses a weird tent when taking selfies that you can’t get around, and I always feel like I’m looking through a slight film when compare to the glasses without
Is the quality good??
@@crystaltorres6299 zenni is the best
Safety first is really a must! thats why I always wear my Softgle Comfort. have anyone use the same brand? This is great brand!
Awesome video--have you done any more glasses reviews?
Im here because I just got back from Target Optical, where the frames were from $99 to $350. Frames Only. Then lenses are like $350 extra. wtf?
Have you heard kits eveywear? You can try free pair… love kits frames are very quality but had $10 shipping. Kits in the USA only. I also like kits now before I used old firmoo fits me for true and zenni okay.
Eyebuy direct most have changed costumer service. No one on live chat wrong hours on website. Prescription only goes to -16.
Thanks for the review of the websites! It was helpful.
I did an eye test today and I can see the bottam line on the eye chart eek so I am getting glasses and this helps alot
Thanks for all the info! Xlent video. I'm getting ready to order a pair from Zenni and EyeBuyDirect. Need progressive lenses, but haven't seen videos about anything other than single vision. Here's hoping!!!
EBD'S progressive lenses are top quality
Do you any that sell safety glasses that can handle high prescriptions. I check Zenni and only handle low range safety. Zenni can handle other type of glasses but safety glasses in high levels not so much.
so helpful ! thanks alot
I use zenni and Payne. I love them both so much!!!
Can you tell me how Payne compares to Zenni? Since I require a high refraction index to keep my glasses thinner with a -7 in both eyes I am interested in hearing from someone who has used them before I order. I am mostly concerned about the quality and how well they ship as well as time to receive.
@@thedoctor7158 honestly, except from the different styles I haven't seen much difference. They both ship within a week or two. And I've never been disappointed with the quality.
Hey I just have a quick question which glasses where the ones that you have from eyebuydirect? Like what is the name of them they are really nice
Those are called the Escape www.eyebuydirect.com/eyeglasses/frames/escape-marbled-gray-m-19559
I have two other as well but uv protection anit reflection anit scratch...
I have tried discount glasses.com and mine are metal framed and added an anti glare finish and it was 64 dollars, including lenses and frames and free shipping. You can find something as cheap as 40 tho.
That's a great price! I'll have to check them out.
I like your style. So, are those glasses progressive and respond to any prescription requirement? My right eye is stronger than the left.
My glasses aren't progressive, just a basic prescription. Supposedly you can do progressive prescriptions with more complex inputs but your mileage may vary.
Zennis cheapest perscription glasses are actually 11.90 that's 6 dollars and some cents for frames and 5 for anti reflective and the actual prescription was actually free
I've heard many people say that Zenni is actually a cheaper option now! Glad to hear it. I still wear Zenni glasses to this day. In fact, I ordered the same clear frames with my updated prescription because I just love the look! You can see me still wearing them in my latest videos.
@@Craylor what are the frames clear frames in the video called?
I personally like payne glasses. Ive gotten a few pairs from them and was never disappointed
No frames direct? Been using them for years. I like these options as I might try zenni to get a couple in rotation
AR coating is free on Zenni 👍
Yep! Zenni gives you a good coating included in the cost. I still use Zenni glasses to this day and I love them.
I would highly recommend the cheaper route if you are a contact lense wearer and need some backup glasses.
Great overall review, thanks so much! Needed this before ordering
No problem! Glad it helped you make a purchase decision.
Zenni Optical is not expensive!!! They are the best!
Compared to the other options on this list, I find them expensive. I prefer Zenni though. They are the best, and I just bought new glasses there.
I have terrible vision I bought a pair of glasses I still couldn’t even see very good they were my first bifocals trifocals whatever they cost me over 600 bucks so then my doctor was like oh you should go to the scale that I use she’s great those cost me 1200 bucks never going back there again and never going to that doctor again.
I looked thru a machine when I went to an optometrist. How can you get the proper strength lens without doing that?
Do you have the name for the zenni glasses? I really like how they look.
Whats the p.n. of the Zenni frame? 🙏🏼
what are the frames that you got from zenni optical?
I had issues with the PD. The place at the mall where I got my prescription from wouldn’t give me the PD. 😎
Just tried two sets for my fiancé and I with Eyebuy direct . Both perceptions were wrong. Had to return as our vision was blurry. Frames nice. Customer service good but lenses were terrible
my glasses at the eye dr were $500 each (included an eye exam) ouch. The frames have the spring. Most uncomfortable frames I’ve had in 20+ years. So I’m going online, thanks for the help!
This guy's sounds so chill high and it's great
what about glassesusa.com?
When you order the glasses from any online you can take them to any optical place and they will adjust them for free
Pro tip! I've heard this but haven't needed to try it yet.
Costco refused to adjust mine.
There is a lack of competition in this area, this leads to high pricing. I have no quarrel with that line of thought. But , I will say that if you like the look and features of high quality prescription sunglasses. You are probably going to have to pay a premium for that. Just my personal opinion based on my own experience.
Yes, there is absolutely something to "you get what you pay for." I'll say that the only pair of glasses I ever bought from an eye doctor were built very well. Overpriced, but nice.
is there a way to figure out your prescription with a test online?
Very helpful vid! Mom was going to pay $300 got glass that she'd get in two weeks! Instead I got her some for $60 in two days!
Do any of these companies accept insurance?
I've used firmoo for 5 years. My entire family got their glasses from them. First time I tried firmoo I bought a Pair from eyebuydirect as well just to compare. Firmoo was wayyyyy better and had better customer service. I don't know what this dude is talking about.. personal preference I guess
Glad to hear you had a better experience with Firmoo! They weren’t the best in my testing, but that’s subjective.
Which frames are those clear ones you got from Zenni?
Hey! Thanks for making this video. I bought some Zennis (two pairs) and they both give me a weird fish bowl effect, which I read is common at first. Just feels like the floor is so far away and everything kind of tilts. Did you ever have this experience with new glasses bought online? Just bought a pair from Eyebuydirect to see if maybe their lenses won’t give me distortion. Let me know your experience if you can, thanks! Rachel
Hey Rachel,
If this is your first pair of glasses or your first pair with a new prescription, you may just have to get used to it. If this is a prescription you're used to already, it looks like you may have entered the pupillary distance wrong, or maybe you entered your prescription wrong. If you are sure you entered it right, you may want to get new measurements made with your optometrist. I'm not really sure, but that shouldn't happen! Reach out to their support and they should take care of it.
I hope that helps!
It's most likely the frames but not a defect per se. They probably have too much pantoscopic tilt for your prescription. That's the angle of the lens in relation to the eye - or if you prefer, the angle of the front of the frame in relation to the arms. If there is too much pantoscopic tilt in the frames, then when you look straight ahead you're effectively looking through a different prescription. This is useful in glasses for farsightedness and presbyopia, where you're looking down most of the time like at a desk or newspaper but not so much for nearsightedness. In the old round wire frames, pantoscopic tilt is nearly infinitely adjustable, with bar wire metal frames, it can be adjusted a little bit and not at all in plastic frames. If you wear bifocals, the pantoscopic tilt can be set for the ADD prescription portion and calculations done to correct the prescription for the distance vision portion. Normal glasses will have about 7-8 degrees of pantoscopic tilt but it can be up to double that in certain frames.
I have 3 from zenni optical.. just orderd my transparent pink with red details 1.61 photochromic lenses and oil resistant all under 80 bucks lol... plus uv protection anit scratch
How does one get the glasses adjusted to fit the ears etc?
(someone please reply) how do i get the right kinda classes, for example i'm near sighted, will any near sighted priscription glasses work fror me if i buy online, i'm not sure because when you go to the eye doctor the run a test to figure out which glasses you need.
Thanks very much!
Great info!
For my normal prescription, I can buy cheap glasses online anywhere, just about.
However, now I have an astigmatism & need Progressive, transition glasses. (Sun kills me)
My 1st pair was from Walmart because my old pair broke. (I was thinking I could get my glasses in 2hrs) Not! Progressive glasses take a few weeks. Those cost me $600 and I found the cheapest frames. They scratched very easily also using their cleaning cloths.
My current pair is from 39dollarglasses & I love them. These cost me $289
I just ordered another pair as a back up or maybe use my current pair as a back up pair from Eyebuydirect & I got those for $95! Out the door w/ a 30% discount code! That's the cheapest "Munroe" style Transition, Progressive glasses I've ever bought! I'm hoping they are good.. 🤟
I bought glasses from zenni, eyebuy direct and goggles for you! Only thing i dont like compared to my glasses from my eye doctor. The glare! Even with anti glare, there us a big green reflection over your eyes! As seen on this guy’s glasses!
Interesting! I've never put much thought into the anti-glare coating. Perhaps it is inferior to what eye doctors give you. I've been wearing my Zenni glasses for so long now that I don't notice it.
Thank you for this great video!!
Okay I gotta say something zenni optical is amazing there starting price is 6 dollars and some change and they're still good quality although there are some expensive glasses on there the ones under 20 dollars(there's over 500)
are still quality
That's awesome. It seems like their site has definitely changed since I made this video. I still wear Zenni glasses full time since releasing this video, and I love them.
I can’t find it ,please help me man,the clear one
It’s frame # 4419623
stay away from glasses usa. been waiting 5 weeks and still no glasses
Ouch. Are you opening a dispute with your card company?
@@Craylor soon yes
Thanka for the comparison video. Could you make an updated one if you havent already? Thanks. I'd like to see how they've held up
Hi Stefani,
I have taken my channel in a new direction content-wise so I won't be making an update video on this, but I will tell you that the only glasses I use daily are the Zenni Optical ones and the GlassesShop ones. I am beyond impressed with both of those and I wear the clear Zenni Optical ones literally every day as my main glasses - they have held up wonderfully. The only thing that bothers me is the hinge on one of the arms is a bit loose. They came that way, but it has gotten a little worse over time.
@@Craylor thank you very much! I appreciate your response 😊
Nice LISP. You should work on that.......
What is the name of the first pair from eyebuydirect called?
The first ones I didn't like were the November frames. The ones I stuck with were the Escape frames.
Enjoyed watching your video, it was very informative. I bought a pair of glasses from Eyebuy Direct and I wasn't happy with the glasses nor the lenses that I picked out. I wanted to like them so much, but the lenses I purchased didn't transition like they were suppose to, they did transition but not as sark as they should have transitioned. They should have transitioned into sunglasses when I went outdoors, instead they only transitioned to a shade darker than what they originally were. My brother took pictures of me outside in the sun -my eyes were very visible through the lenses- and the lenses went 1 shade to a very light tint. Needless to say I will not buy another pair from Eyebuy Direct.
Craylor, I want to know what your thoughts are on Anti-Smudge coatings. The only pair of prescription glasses I own were upsold with this extra and THEY SMUDGE LIKE CRAZY! Do I have a lemon pair or is this pretty common?
P.s. I moved away frkm where I bought the frames so I cannot just pop over and call them out on it...
In my experience, this is pretty normal. I’m sure anti-smudge coatings do a little something, but I find that they’re not effective and not worth the extra cost. Sorry you paid so much for it!
I tried eye buy direct , they were having a sale, but I hated the website. Maybe it's easier to use on a laptop. Ordered from zenni instead :)
Yeah, all of these sites can be difficult to order from on your phone. I’m glad Zenni worked out for you! Thanks for watching.
SportRx?
I really am interested in getting clear frames but wonder how bad glare would be from the sun, tv, and computer. I get really bad glare even if the edges are polished.
I've been wearing clear frames for years. It took me a while to get used to at first, and I hated the reflection in the sun, but I've gotten used to it and I don't even notice it now.
what are good canadian sites?
If the frame is properly built, it doesn't require the metal stabilizer.... That happens when you decide to buy the cheapest of cheap.
guitaristofspeed thanks for the input. My understanding was that a proper built frame = having a metal stabilizer, but I was just trying to stress not to buy the super cheapo frames because they aren't any good.
Does anyone know how much is the shipping to Europe on Zenni?
I wear my Hepburn eyebuydorect everyday,I have like six pairs
The metal reinforcement in the temple is not necessarily a deal breaker. If the frames are made of TR-90 they really don't need the metal reinforcement. That's not just my opinion. Ray-Ban sells nylon (i.e., TR-90) frames without the metal in the temple for over $100.
For decades acetate has been considered the best non-metal material for frames. TR-90 is changing that. It matches or surpasses acetate in every way imaginable, especially cost since TR-90 is injection molded and does not need to be machined like acetate.
Good to know! I don't doubt that there's strong enough plastic out there to eliminate the need for metal stabilizers. However, in the case of these websites, the plastic/build quality is often so cheap that I find the metal necessary. I'm sure that differs from premium brands like Ray-Ban
@@Craylor, apparently Ray-Ban believes TR-90 is strong enough to eliminate the need for metal reinforcement.
I tried there’s any experience but I got stuck at the measurement between the middle of your iris like I’m looking in the mirror and how can I get a measurement between those two when I’m constantly looking at one eye or the other to measure I can’t remember what it was called like the RP your PR p.m. measurement how in the world am I supposed to know how to do that. They should have some thing where you like use your camera and look into it and they just measure it for you.
Yeah, that is a challenge. I used a ruler and a mirror but it wasn't easy, and there was some guess work involved.
A few yrs ago, I was able to measure my PD accurately. It takes a few tries, just have to be patient
In your opinion, would it be better to buy a pair of glasses with transitions lenses or a sunglass pair?
Sunglasses all the way, but I'm going for style over functionality. I think transition lenses are more convenient, but I've always thought they look nerdy and you can't enjoy styles like mirrorized lenses or polarized lenses. I've always had separate prescription sunglasses.
@@Craylor Christian, I had an eye exam and checked out Zenni.com. The total cost for my glasses is $112.40. The frame cost $19, lenses are Blokz photocromic digital progressives with AR superhydrophobic, $84.95. I could not believe the price, it's so frigging cheap. Thanks again man!😀😀😀
Go to 11thmoon.in the sunglasses and frames there are awesome
I have a question, my doctor said my prescription is -600, is that the same as -6.0? I'm so confused, can someone help me?😭
It would have to be -6. AT -600 you'd be so blind you'd see black. He probably meant -6.00
Thank you ! I really need new glasses but. I. Couldn't afford. Them thank you again I will tray zenni
You're welcome! Glad this video could help you out.
When you buy them, do they come with your prescription?
Yes, you have to add it in the order.
Just me or does it sound like he talks in 0.75x speed
I HATE ZENNI! I’ve been a customer for three years, ordering at least two pairs of prescription glasses a year-just for fun.
They have a great selection and amazing prices. They used to have great
customer service and stood behind their products. That all changed this year.
*January 2019- I ordered a new pair of prescription glasses. This time the
prescription in the right lens was incorrect. Sent it back and told it was Zenni’s mistake. They made a new pair of prescription
glasses with the same frame. Three months later, I received my replacement, but
the left nose guard was missing. U contacted Zenni and was told they would send me a new nose
guard. I received it in May, but couldn't put it on the wire nose prop. The
plastic was stuck together. Contacted Zenni AGAIN. After
trying all of the customer service person's hints on what to do, even though I
told him it the tiny plastic nub was stuck together; leaving no room for it to
slip onto the wire, his solution was for Zenni to ship me
replacement frames. Then I would only have to pop out the lens from the broken
frame and pop them into the new frames. I don't feel comfortable POPPING out
prescription lens. At this point, I am frustrated! I ask if I can send the
glasses back for a credit, so I can buy another pair of glasses with different
frames. I’m told that I will only get 50% credit, because the second pair of
glasses was partially paid for with credit Zenni gave me from the first pair of glasses that was
badly made???? I tried to talk to a supervisor, but no one wanted to help me. I
gave up talking to a wall of indifference and decided to take off the remaining
nose guard from the second pair of prescription glasses I received and wear
them as back up glasses. PLUS, I’M NEVER ORDERING FROM ZENNI AGAIN. I don't
know if they changed management at the beginning of 2019 or just stopped caring
about customers. I promised them I would be telling everyone within the sound
of my voice to never buy from Zenni from now one.
Plus, I plan on using social media and GOOGLE to warn other people about their
change of customer and quality service.. SHAME ON ZENNI FOR TREATING A VALUED
CUSTOMER SO POORLY!
Oh my goodness! Sorry to hear about your awful experience. What site are you going to use from now on?
@@Craylor Going back to eyebuy direct. At least they stand behind their merchandise. Unless, they've changed quality control, like Zenni.
@@gypsyqueen1339 I personally find that EBD's lenses are lower quality than Zenni optical. After wearing the Zenni optical ones that they sent me in this video full time, my prescription changed. I had a large credit at EBD so I ordered some blue light blocking glasses from there in a similar style. The prescription was spot on but the blue coating wasn't working for me. I sent them back and ordered the same exact ones I had from Zenni with the new prescription. I got 2 pairs of sunglasses from EBD though and I love them both, so I think it is just the blue light blocking coating from EBD that makes things off. With that being said, EBD has PHENOMENAL customer support. They have always bent over backwards to make sure I've been happy. I've never had to use Zenni's support, but you aren't the first person to say you weren't happy with your customer service experience there.
After posting my ire online, Zenni has given me full credit for another pair of glasses. Hooray for social media! In the past, I would have been out of luck. I will not order the same frames, though.

8 - ) good discussion. Which site had the most interesting styles, Zenny?
What do you get when you cross Jason Momoa, with Walter White on marijuana? Lol, just kidding. Great channel!
Yo, i know im a year later, but would you say this video still applies?
Some things have changed, such as EyeBuyDirect now offering Oakley and Rayban frames, but it seems like these sites are generally still the same. I have not had to order glasses in over a year, but I will say that I personally use Zenni and EyeBuyDirect to this day. I've worn the same clear Zenni frames you see in this video every day and ordered new ones when my prescription changed. I like to invest a bit more and get the nicer quality from Zenni for my daily glasses, then I order sunglasses from EyeBuyDirect for cost savings.
Craylor Made ok thanks a lot!
What about lensable?
