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.

Excellent Optics And Service

Easy to order, many modern stylish frames and economical pricing. EyeBuyDirect is my first choice when I need eyeglasses.

Didn't match my prescription
January 9, 2021
Updated review

The frames were very nice but the glasses didn't match the prescription I provided. I eventually found the glasses I lost so I could compare them to the new glasses. Close but not the same. Since they are only for TV viewing I'm just going to keep them as backups.

They were happy enough to take my money then provide a fake tracking number. Each time I called or emailed I got a different story as to when and from where my glasses had shipped. NONE were true. Glasses never arrived by the "No later than" date.

Fast, easy, good price, glasses have spots on them that can't be wiped away from the anti glare and blue light filter. So I would recommend sticking with the basic lenses

Super Easy
November 13, 2020

These glasses are awesome and you cant beat the price for quality glasses. I have been wearing glasses for 50 years and these are just as good as the glasses I paid 600.00 for. I also got them 2 days ahead of the estimated time. The web site was a breeze and the prescription what right on. I will defiantly recommend them all of my friends. I am always quick to make a review if its not what was expected, but this time they went above and beyond with customer service.

Everything was done in time, no delays and stress. This is exactly what I expect from any company. But in practice it is a great rarity.

I ordered my glasses and they were on their way to my address. After much time had went by, they still had not arrived. I finally called and they got sent back to the factory and i asked them to tell me why and they said they had no clue. My adress and everything was correct so the lady said she would process the order again. I called back again a couple days later after receving no update and the man said that they should be shipped out that day HOWEVER i checked back two days later and they were still in the factory! So i called ONCE AGAIN today and the lady said that my glasses are still in the damn factory. She said they should be shipped soon ( like what is soon?) but now it will take them even longer to arrive. SO i kindly asked for expedited shipping because I CANNOT see or even drive right now. I really needed these glasses A LONG TIME AGO. All she said she could do was send a form to the factory basically telling them to hurry up. This whole thing has been such a hassle and i am really upset because i am practically blind right now and cant even leave the house without glasses. Its been almost a month since i ordered and i still have not received anything helpful or offered.
SO upset and dissapointed.

The glasses look great and feel great. The try-on feature was pretty accurate, and the glasses look even better in person. There was a decent selection of the kind I wanted, and the prices are such a steal. The only thing was slow shipping, got my glasses a little bit after the 14 days as promised, and I never got an email that they shipped. Even though they assured me they were "in the last stage of quality check" for about a week, customer service was friendly and prompt at responding to emails.

Stylish things that deserve attention.
Many colors, different styles, good size range.
And the prices are of course also very affordable.

Absolutely Deplorable
November 15, 2020

Awful. Mistake after mistake without even the slightest concern from the company.
Paid the 2 day shipping as the glasses I had broke so I've been unable to see. 15 days later it was still listed as being in the lab and hadn't even gone through quality control yet.
Wrote customer service and was dismissed with a script responce. After writing back and forth they kept giving me mixed information and finally said they put an expedite order to the lab but didn't even know where they were.
2 days later they show up without any updates or emails. Glasses quality were bad and whats worse is it was completely the wrong RX. Not even close!
Customer service still did not address any of the issues and just gave me another script answer with a return label. Nothing done to make this right.
Now I have to wait for 3 or 4 more weeks to get my 290$ refund in before I can go buy new glasses elsewhere.
Absolutely unacceptable. Reporting them to the Better Businesses Bureau.

Eyebuydirect, even during a pandemic, has remained consistent, fast delivery, and product is still decent quality. The glasses aren't high end looking or anything but the price is right. My son also has glasses from them and they hold up to a ten year old. I have bought about 6 or seven pairs and usually during sales, so prices have been pretty good.

Always amazing
September 21, 2020

I've ordered off them so many times because I just keep coming back for more. EBD quality is fantastic and the prices are so affordable. I have a very strong script and used to pay upwards of $500 for glasses at the optometrist. Now on EBD I pay roughly $140 for glasses that match the quality of those $500 ones. I keep coming back for more because of their quality, service and value and I am never disappointed!

Not worth your time
October 13, 2020

The sizing is not correct. I had three frames total and although listed as different sizes, they were not at all. Trying to get help was an absolute nightmare, and once I decided to just get a refund, they kept offering other things after I repeatedly said I wanted to return the glasses. I shipped them back last week and I still haven't received my refund.

I love ordering my glasses through EyeBuyDirect. Their prices and quality of glasses are awesome! I love all the different styles. And my order always comes on time, and sometimes earlier. Highly recommend buying from this company!

I bought a pair of frames and the prescription was wrong. I had difficulty returning them. I got another pair and although t he prescription was correct, I didn't like the way the frames fit. They would not accept them as a return. You get what you pay for in the case of this company.

Great with the exception of trying to edit the lenses. I needed to add the correct pupillary distance but had to start completely over.
