    Crossfingers Eyeglasses, where U get Ur's?

    So..
    Was supposed to go to America best, they have a deal all the time 69.00 included exam, 2 pair of single lense glasses..
    HOWEVER, lve previously used them, the one pair I had to have fixed a # of X's, then they perma broke, the other pair (different style, & for distance only, night driving) they completely broke early on..

    So, where do you buy eyeglasses.
    Last pair of readers from Walmart broke after a week, don't even start me on $store

    https://www.firmoo.com if you know your prescription you can just plug it in. Search YouTube to see all the different styles and reviews.

    I've used America's Best $69 deal several times throughout the years and always had good experiences, but I only wear glasses when I read and drive so my use is very light. Maybe try another brand from them?

    I use eyebuydirect. I get my prescription info from my eye doctor and enter it into the site. I've bought several pairs from them, both regular eyeglasses and prescription sunglasses. If they don't arrive within a certain timeframe, they will resend them. I've had that happen before when I ordered a regular pair of prescription eyeglasses and a pair of prescription sunglasses. The company sent them out again and a week later, I got the original ones so now I have 2 pairs of eyeglasses and 2 pairs of sunglasses.

    I checked out a lot of reviews and websites before ordering my glasses. I wanted to buy online and to see what they looked like on me . So, my focus was on free return or dogital view sites that let you "try on".

    The winner with these options and price was zennioptical. I was also able to add blue light filter and the transition that goes dark in the sun for cheap.

    They automatically come with anti scratch, anti glare, case, cloth etc.

    I paid for 21 day shipping and they arrived in a week.




    If you use my link we are both supposedly going to get $5 off the next order. Haven't done that part before.

    Good luck!

    I don't wear glasses. But my brother does. He had problems with metal frames that would break and bend until he got plastic frame last year. He's very satisfied with it as they are re-usable when it comes to changing prescription.

    OP I know you don't like Wal Mart but for someone needing an eye exam they are really reasonable for someone without insurance.

    IIRC a lot of people order replacement lenses from Indian labs overseas (shipping takes a while but the prices are very low.)

    Question for anyone who has ordered prescription glasses online.
    Does the company require the ' pupil distance' measurement of each eye along with the prescription?
    Because I was at Walmarts optical department yesterday, and they said that all online purchases require it.
    I ended up spending $150 there to have my new prescription put into sunglasses that I brought in.
    Did I get ripped off and misled?
    Thanks in advance.

    I get new glasses either every 2-3 years, I think it's 2. Last time I bought 2 pairs of Oakley frames + lenses. One were polarized sunglasses the other were normal oakley glasses. Earlier this year I did the exact same things and both times the total for both pairs together was $1200.

    I purchase from LensCrafters. Wether I do that next time around or not I'm not sure but I was happy with the service both times and I really like the Oakley Fire Iridium lenses. Those kind weren't available in prescriptions until this year apparently.
