I purchase mine and my childrens glasses from zenni! Make sure you get the correct PD and they work great! We are always getting compliments on them.

I managed an eye clinic and although we wanted to get your business we also knew that wasn't always doable. What we always told our patients was if you do order a "backup" pair online bring them in so we can read them and make sure they are the correct RX. They should also tell you your PD on you script so you know what to get. Maybe once you get them you can swing in and have them check your "backup"  pair.

I think it depends on how strong/complex your prescription is. I will only do my sunglasses with them because otherwise I can’t afford to get them. I prefer to get my regular glasses at my eye doctor in case something isn’t right.

If it’s a single rx I go to vision works and they have some for Iike $60. But when I used to have bifocals, nothing was ever under $600 even when I got the cheap frames.

I LOVE zenni! First time in my life my glasses became an accessory, fluent with my style, rather than a necessary nuisance ;)

I pay over $700 for mine. I have glaucoma and double vision so I have prisms and bifocals so that’s not an option for me

Zenni is great if you have no issues other than off vision. If you have really bad eyes, its not cheap. I opted for warby parker because I could try the glasses on with no commitment. $90 for frames and lenses

You can order 5 pairs to try on, risk free, NO FEES and return them, then place your order when you've found the pair you like. Free shipping both ways!
