EyeBuyDirect.com sells prescription eyeglasses and frames, as well as sunglasses.
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.

So the Sunglasses I ordered were NEVADA - BROWN STRIPE. However, in person, these glasses do not appear as they're advertised on the site. A new image of those sunglasses needs to be posted on the site as the one customers see. Because the frames are NOT brown striped, they're maroon.
With my Sebastian eyeglasses, I am THRILLED! They're beautiful and comfortable and I can SEEEEE!
My only complaint is how long it takes to deliver them.

The glasses I first chose were too big, but I was able to return them postage paid and try another pair. I had to wait on the phone a little long to get it taken care of, but the people who helped me were helpful. I hoped I could do the exchange online, but I didn't ever hear back or get the refund, so I had to call in.
We loved the site. Just got confused about shipping. We chose to pay an extra $20 to get the glasses sooner. We thought that meant we would receive them in 2-7 days. But after not receiving them for almost 2 weeks we called and were told that it takes up to two weeks just to make the glasses and that extra money was just to expedite the shipping process. Somehow this should be made clear throughout the process. Thanks for a great product.
Too easy. Will reserve comment until glasses received.
Received the glasses and not one issue. I hope they believe in this business model and not make any changes.
I watched a video on Youtube about purchasing eyeglasses on line compared to going to a store. When questioned, the managers of the walk in stores could not explain why their eyeglasses were priced so extremely high compared to the online stores. I couldn't be happier, and will continue to purchase future eyeglasses from your store, and have also spread the word of how we have saved a lot of money. My eyeglasses used to cost $400 - $500, and how cost somewhere between $120 - $190.00, depending on what extras I want. Thank you
Because they were progressive lenses, they took a little while to arrive, but the glasses are really great - worth waiting for. I'm a several time return buyer at eyebuydirect.com
Delivery time was around 10 days. I am honest when I say these glasses fit perfectly right out of the box! Chain store glasses never fit correctly, even after several pairs over the years, several adjustments. My face, nose and ears are not the easiest to accommodate. These glasses fit, fit very well, no adjustments necessary so far. Will buy from EyeBuyDirect again!
Love the try on feature. Works better here than on another site. Order updates were slow. Didn't realize delivery guarantee is 7-14 days after eyeglass production completion not from date of purchase. One lense was rough on the top edge, not sanded smooth.

The majority of this experience was amazing, cost effective, and there are SO many cute frames to pick from. The only reason I gave four stars is because I have a very different prescription in each eye and they placed my order on hold and never notified me. I actually noticed 2-3 days later and contacted them. Other than that everything was fantastic. Once they verified my prescription it was smooth sailing. AND I paid less for them than I usually do when I use my insurance! Highly recommended.
Ordering online is easy. This is my second time ordering from them. I received my glasses within 2 weeks. I ordered 2 pair this time and the 2nd pair didn't fit my face right so I called to exchange and they happily process the exchange for me. No hassle and it was quick and easy.
I have a problem with arms getting loose on every pair of glasses I get. Last pair only lasted 3 months before being unwearable. Ay $400 a pop, that's pretty expensive. Saw this company and decided to gibe it a try. Right now, they are perfect and holding up well.
I wanted transition lenses but didn't want to pay an arm and a leg for them at the eye doctor. Got them on EyeBuyDirect for under $100! Just came in the mail yesterday and they work like a charm.
The glasses I ordered were cute, but just weren't for me. At first, I thought that maybe the lens width was too narrow, but after wearing them for a few days I came to the conclusion that the frame was too narrow for my face. I am returning them for credit and I'm going to try something else.
It's easy to pick what I wanted, and place the order. The deliver was surprisingly fast.
I am super happy eith my new glasses! They came very fast!
Was able to buy online. Easy. Options on sale not that varied.
EyeBuy Direct has a very easy website to navigate and find a pair of frames and lenses. I've purchased a few glasses from the website and I've been very satisfied with the whole experience each time. I would recommend EyeBuy Direct over the other online eye glass sites.
Answer: Or you can be like me and have not received your order after more than a month of waiting. Granted, I'm in Guam, but given that the USPS works here pretty much the same way it works in the states, no other retailer has any problem getting their packages to me in a timely manner. The company has sent me two different tracking numbers for the same package. The tracking report from the post office says the package was supposed to be here 12 days ago and the last time it appears the package was scanned was 24 days ago. I have emailed the company multiple times and every time they reply with some generic apology and continue to stall. The package clearly got lost in the mail, I get that and I am typically a reasonable person but any respectable merchant intent on providing good customer service in today's online marketplace would have owned up to the issue and offered a refund or have already shipped out a replacement product. They've done neither. Does it mean they are bad people running a bad business? Probably not. However, it does mean there are probably better companies out there to give your business to who won't take so long to get you your glasses.
Answer: It depends on the frame. Some are plastic, some are metal, and there are other materials used as well. The descriptions will indicate the materials they are made out of. I've ordered 3 pairs from EBD ($6 and $9 pairs--cheapest there are) and they are excellent quality. An equivalent pair of frames alone from the store would have cost $150+, not including lenses.
