Eyebuydirect Reviews Summary

The company has garnered a solid reputation for providing affordable, quality eyewear, with many customers praising the extensive selection and effective virtual try-on feature. Satisfaction with product quality is prevalent, particularly for prescription glasses, which are often noted as a cost-effective alternative to traditional retailers. However, concerns regarding slow shipping times and excessive communication, particularly following orders, have been highlighted as significant drawbacks. While most customers express overall satisfaction, the inconsistency in delivery and customer service experiences indicates room for improvement in operational efficiency and support responsiveness.

Top shelf for affordable prices. My eyes are happy and my wallet is heavier after the savings. Thank you very much for the Buy One Get One coupon.

Insude Scoop

Best way to shop & buy eye/sun glasses. I've ordered 9 pair. One pair needed to be sent back in exchange from progressive to bifocal. Another pair, the frame arm broke. Both returns was FREE without hassle.
I will ALWAYS buy EYEBUYDIRECT.!;-)

It has taken me a year of trying to convince myself to buy glasses online. I hesitated so long because I thought there must be a Vast difference in quality of the product due to the price difference... but after pricing the deals at the more traditional Eyeglass Retail Stores which averaged over $900 for 2 pair compared to the $230 price for 2 pair of EyeBuyDirect glasses I Very Nervously took the plunge! My other hesitation was over how long it might take to receive my order... AS OF TODAY ALL OF MY FEARS WERE SHATTERED as of today Aug. 28th, SEVEN days after placing my order I received the glasses. THESE PROGRESSIVE LENSES actually feel More correcting of my vision than any pair of glasses I have ever owned. Excellent Price and Product.!

I was confused as to selection of sunglasses. I thought I could just select my current style and make them sunglasses. Doesn't seem to work that way, hoping what I ordered works.

So far I don't have to speak with customer support because I don't have an issue. Prices are nicely acceptable, much lower than I find elsewhere, I can usually find a cool frame I can live with, NEVER pass up a coupon discount.

I have gotten 6 pairs now from this company and each time I have received my glasses in a timely matter, in nice cases, and whenever I have had a problem they are super quick to fix it. Love each pair I have bought (especially since I change my look like twice a year). 10/10 for them!

Very pleased with my purchases. Quality frames, lenses and service at a fraction of the cost of the brick and mortar stores. There was an error on my distance glasses which turned out to be MY mistake. EBD replaced the glasses at no charge and paid the shipping to have me return the original pair. That is going beyond, in my opinion. So happy with my prescriptions that I've ordered a second pair of my readers for my purse. Love this company and highly recommend there services.

This site is so easy to use and I love all the photos of models with the glasses and then the reviews have photos as well. It really helps. I was shopping a lot of websites but kept coming back because the choice of frames, the pricing, and the ease of the website was by far the best!

I can not say enough WONDERFUL things about my experience with EyeBuyDirect!
Easy, Affordable, the list goes on and on!
Recently, 3 people have stopped me in the airport to ask where I got my frames. They are shocked when I tell them from an online store. Send me business cards to hand out, as I can't stop talking about my positive experience with EBD!

Very simple ordering
August 23, 2018

I'm so happy I found this site. I do not have eye insurance so I have put off new glasses for 8 years. I can't believe how easy this was.

Good selection of frames and lenses. I was trying to order a duplicate pair of glasses with identical specs. While the order history has all the details of prior purchase, I was not able reorder the same item without having to go through the painful process of filling all the details. This process could be simplified for reorders.

I have been buying glasses from IBD for several years. I had to try out various designs until I settled on what works, but that's online buying and I have no complaints. The Help functions however are completely inadequate. The chat function starts by asking for an email and then results in an email 3 days after attempting to use it. Email contact is no quicker. Bottom Line--inexpensive (and cool, sometimes really cool) glasses but be sure of what you want because there is no help. Probably that is the price for "inexpensive". Works for me, but then I used to buy at Lens Crafters.

I am so happy with EyeBuyDirect. I started buying my prescription eyeglasses a few years ago from this website. I do have insurance through work who gives about $200 annually towards glasses or contacts so I always use my insurance towards yearly contacts, and ask my eye dr for my eye glass RX & order them from here! They come right in the mail & I've never has an issue. =)

Best Site for Glasses
August 23, 2018

I have ordered many glasses from EyeBuyDirect because I love the prices and styles! Also if you are a student you can get awesome discounts! If you don't like your style, returning is super easy! They also donate the other pair - which is fantastic!

I dropped my first pair in a canal never to be seen again. I loved the glasses and the whole web ordering process that I purchased another pair!

Love how you can virtually try on glasses, and if there is anything wrong, you can send back. Great prices on lenses!
