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.

My favorite frames couldn't have transitions (SGs only), so I bought those polar
And my 2nd favorite as my daily. Process was pretty quick and their selection is near-limitless. Def recommend using their guide on head shapes+types of glasses
Very user friendly, reasonable pricing with many options to adjust your frames and lenses to fit to your face and preferences
This is a great bargain website for prescription lenses. As a bargain site, there are not as many options for customer service and speed, however anytime I have had an issue EyeBuyDirect has addressed it and fixed it. I have been a customer of the site since 2013 and am currently ordering my fourth pair of glasses from them. I have always been happy with my glasses and found great deals. It will take up to two weeks for the order to arrive, but in my experience that has been the same at any brick and mortar store as well.
I've bought from eyebuydirect several times and have always had a good experience. Would definitely continue buying and recommend.
I loved my last pair, but with a new pair i have to go elswhere if i want a choice. The site should show frames that can acommodate the script. You spend a lot of time picking a frame, only to find that none fit the script? You may have a wide selection of frames, but i can't find one to purchase! You should invest in more inventory of index sizes.
I bought two pair of glasses for me and my husband and both broken in the ears. Good price but no quality.
I have always been pleased with the service and quality of EyeBuyDirect, and the value is incredible!
Within a matter of five minutes my order was in! Super easy to save account info. I do wish you offered more sizes for each pair of glasses. There were a few I really liked but I knew they would be to large!
This is the second pair of eyeglasses I have purchased from eyebuydirect.com. I love them! And they make the ordering process really simple and fast.
Eyebuy direct is easy and I love their frames. I only buy from Eyebuy Direct. Website is easy to navigate and it saves your information on prior orders.
These glasses are really fashionable and for a very reasonable price. I used to get glasses I only kind of liked for $200-$300 while here I can get stylish prescription glasses AND sunglasses for less than $100.
My one flaw I have with the company is that there isn't a warranty for the glasses and they're on the flimsy side. But I usually chuck my glasses in a soft case and they get roughed up in my bag so that could explain some of the issue.
In general, if you're on a budget like I am and you want stylish glasses (SERIOUSLY I get complements all the time!) I highly recommend this site.
THIS WEBSIDE WAS GIVEN TO ME BY MY DAUGHTER. ITS EASY BROWSING, AND LOTS OF FRAMES TO CHOOSE FROM, DESIGNS, COLORS, SHAPES ETC.
I love that Eye Buy Direct has affordable, high quality glasses! They are fun, fashionable, and that way I can get several pairs!
I would only give three stars for this order, but I have had success in the past even to the point of five stars.
It took be two hours to complete the order. First, with IOS you cannot edit the order. I only wanted one pair, but two, three and four were added. Finally a chat person was able to erase the entire order and I started over.
Then, even though my credit card was on file, it was rejected: "invalid number." That problem may have been the result of an incorrect phone number although I've never seen that applied before to an order for any company, and besides I doubt they meant invalid phone number.:)
And finally on this form you can't submit it without the order number, and so I have to go my email to find out what it was.
In summary, the glasses are worth the trouble. And unlike many companies, they do publish all reviews.

The whole process of buying the glasses online was super easy. Once i get my glasses i can review more but so far so good!
You need to to look over everything before you finish you order. I found out to late I could have gotten and extra discount if I known where to look for it. In the pass years I think I've ordered at least 10 pairs of glasses.

While It was rather easy to place the order, it wasn't easy selecting glasses because you have lots of great frames/
I love ordering from you guys! Easy and cheap when needed, also the boxing is cute and simple. I love that there is a tool always included.
We couldn't be happier with this website. The ease of placing the order is great and they have so many options for frames. Way cheaper than at the Dr. office. We have ordered many extra pairs just because they are so cheap. I have turned many of my friends and family members on to this site.
This was really easy- love the tutorial and the prices are a lot cheaper than the eye doctor's office. I will continue to get my glasses from Eye Buy Direct
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.
Answer: I received two pairs very quickly but was very disappointed when i put them on only to find out the prescription was completely wrong. There are no refund or exchange directions in your website or with the packaging, so I did not know the number to call. Please get in touch with me asap about exchanging the glasses for ones with the correct lenses. Thank you very much. My name is Ellen Mazzeo Larkfield road East norport, ny Phone: 917-763-0092 I the glasses came without any paperwork and I do not have the order number that was originally used on both pairs. I bought them within this past month or so. (This is after returning a pair that I sent back for the same problem(. Please call me or email me so I can figure out how to correct this error. Or please send me your customer service phone number that I can talk to someone live. Thank you. Emazzeo
