Placed an online order for frames (no Rx). I received the shipment, however, it only contained a case for the glasses and not the frames ordered. After contact they indicated they would investigate and get back to me, which has not happened. Disputed the charge with paypal and they used the fact that I received the shipment as reason to support the seller. So I am out the money and did not received the product I paid for. I shop almost exclusively online and this is the worst customer service experience I have encountered. Advise to stay away and look elsewhere for you glasses needs.
I'll keep this short and to the point
This company
WILL NOT HONOR THEIR RETURN POLICY 100%.
The lady who answered the phone was extremely unprofessinal (Reason she works there)
BEWARE I had to learn the hard way.
THEY kept $59 dollars of mines.
I will REPORT them.
I'll make sure friends and family wont shop there at all.
Was $59 worth it? Now you'll lose more
Thanks

They overcharged me and not refunded the difference owed to me. No returned phone calls! No answered emails!

First pair of frames were backordered. Company did not bother to reach out and let me know. Called/emailed numerous times with no response. Finally got ahold of someone, the representative verified new frames were in stock. Two more weeks have gone by with no communication from company, other than surveys to rate them. Finally spoke to same lady and was told second pair of frames are now back ordered, even though I waited 30 plus minutes so she could check stock. Company did not offer communication whatsoever. Or even try to remedy situation.

Answer: Actually its not a scam, I took my glasses to a gucci retailer and had them verified.
Answer: Mine were authentic as ever Versace store confirmed
Answer: Not easy at all! You can send an email, which will likely take at least a week for them to respond, or you can call. I have called and emailed several times. There are only 2 customer service people (I asked when I called) so you sit on hold for upwards of an hour. It is horrible. Then when you do finally get a person on the line, or an email response it is just, "Your glasses are almost ready. They should be shipped out soon." When you press for more detailed information they put you on hold and then come back and say that the lab is currently working on them. If you email for more information then you email is likely never returned.
Answer: Their Customer Service is absolute garbage...
Answer: I put in an order from Canada back in April 2025. There were some delays in shipping and delivery due to holiday long weekend and availability of the frames I ordered from the store. But I did get my order after a few weeks delay. So they are legitimate. Price I paid for the frames was reasonable even with the dollar exchange rate. I would consider ordering from Designer Optics again.
