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.

This was the worst attempt at ordering online. My agent, from the Phillipines spoke the worst broken dialect I have ever heard. We had to go back and erase my wifes account, to add a new one. The webmaster sucks!

Value, but time is money.
September 9, 2018

The frames cost about what they should. As with any glasses the cost comes in the lenses and still it's a relative bargain below competitors. The styles, if you shop long enough, don't change that much at all but they mix them up(colors, materials, sizes) enough to give a big variety'. The trade-off for me comes in the usual two week period just to fabricate the glasses then you endure shipping time. Coupons and sales get you a couple dollars but lenses are upwards of $30 and shipping starts at $6 so it's a gesture at best.

Best Online Glasses Ever.
September 8, 2018

I absolutely love everything about EyeBuyDirect from customer service to quality glasses they deserve more than 5 stars in my book! I've ordered several pairs of glasses and sunglasses, and have eyeballed more frames in my wish list than I have in any eye frame store. Upon ordering they send with your order surprise free eye frame screwdrivers, glasses holding cloth, and it comes in an awesome little box that I double as a glasses case because the quality is that just great. The customer service is absolutely top notch as well, any questions I've asked they've answered with no complications whatsoever. I've got to give them a great amount of credit too for how easy it is to order through them! For frame size just have measurements of distance between eyes and total size from eye to eye, and your prescription for lenses, which you would obtain when you get an eye exam done. If you have any certain needs for prescription like bi focals, multi focals, progressive, transition sunglasses, the list goes on they've got it covered, and will work with you too if need be. I've been downright amazed by the quality and prices done here at EyeBuyDirect that I will continue being a customer for years.

Love my new glasses!
September 8, 2018

I was a bit skeptical about ordering online glasses. The 1st company I used it was not successful. I use progressive lenses. I am delighted I can see! These progressives are a full lens, hard to find on many online sites. I have ordered my 2nd pair!

So far, so good
September 6, 2018

I have lost track of how many pairs of glasses I have ordered from EyeBuyDirect. I have ordered them for myself, my mother, and also my father. I have only had to return one pair if I recall correctly, and that was due to them being too big for my face (which was my own error). Their customer service has also been good to me the few times I have had to contact them. Keep in mind, you tend to get what you pair for with this company. I have only had one pair of frames break on me - they were some fairly cheap frames though ($9 without prescription). As long as nothing drastically changes, I intend to be a long time customer.

I used to love this site but now it has become like a Chinese fish market. Too many bait tactics that are frustrating and lure for more money. As an example, when you apply Screen Protection to lenses, they charge double the amount of money when one is ordering reading glasses Vs when one is ordering distance glasses. This is the same screen protection for god's sake. They know that the customers of reading glasses will very likely buy it but for distance readers, it's an optional thing...

I'm a fan and would recommend to a friend. 5 stars for the price. Cons: I have had several frames break (style "chilling") and the film has seemed to go critically away after 1.5 years (i am buying a replacement now) but the cost and convenience is in line. Thank you

First Time Buyer
September 4, 2018

This was the first time I have purchased from EBD. The websites use of cookies kept crashing the site. It took me forever to place my order because I had to keep clearing cookies. So Annoying! I have not received my glasses yet and I am hoping that they are at least of medium quality. It is al least 25% of what I normally pay at the office and the selection is greater than Costco. I will update when I get my glasses.

This company didn't only charge me two but three time for one pair of glasses. I had to cancel my cards and then they sent me a tracking number for overnight shipping a week ago. And still haven't gotten them! The customer service sucks.

I have loved being able to mix and match my frames for an affordable price, however I have had quite the issue with the durability of the glasses. Compared to other frames, these break and come apart quite easily. Also, the shipping process takes a ridiculous amount of time.

Excellent Website
September 4, 2018

I have been a customer of Eye Buy Direct for 4 years now and they have never failed me. I have lost 2 of the 3 pair I purchased and Eye Buy Direct always come to my rescue. This is my saving grace website and a huge money saver on eyeglasses.

Updated review

I know how to order glasses through your site and I did call y'all, to cancel part of my order. I found another company that offers fashion glasses for an amazing price. I think I'm jumping the fence, y'all had me looking plain and that is just not me. I get stopped all the time about my glasses and my son is a hit at school, we can't down grade because y'all lost your marbles. We have picture day coming up, 1st grade is no joke. Ha. No bad feelings, hope to see y'all around in the future, with some on point frames!

They don't have much to choose from, they need more color, more style. I usually buy 6 pairs for my son and six for me. This time I ordered only three pairs each, and that was difficult.

Great Glasses

If you want great glasses at a fraction of what you would pay at the eye doctor you have to shop at Eye Buy Direct!
