I found the shopping experience frustrating. I wanted to use a promo from work and the regular price of the glasses kept changing depending on what promo was added. The glasses themselves are decent. The quality is good after adjusting to fit me better.
Frames and lenses are good quality. I was surprised that Glasses USA is a good bit more expensive than Zenni for the same prescription but I do feel that I got a more quality product. Only dislike is that I ordered 2 different types of frames, both were medium size, but one pair is so big they slide off my face while the other fit perfectly.
I loved that it is easy and fast to buy a prescribed glass, with the option to see how it looks on you.
However, the pair I got was too big for me, so I returned it.
In a few clicks, I got a return level and had multiple options for dropping it.
The sunglasses were perfect. They work well and look great. I ordered a second pair of single vision regular glasses and have not been able to wear them. They have one leg that is extremely bowed out and no amount of warm water per instructions seem to be helping. Hopefully I can get them to work in the next few days or I will need to return them.

From start to finish the whole process was efficient and effortless. The selection was almost to much to chose from and price was right cheaper than my insurance would have been. And sent in order to insurance and will be reimbursed the cost just amazing!
I purchased two pairs of glasses with a BOGO deal offered by GlassesUSA. Both had circular lenses. One of the lenses in one pair was apparently about 90 degrees of off where it should have been set, resulting blurred vision through that eye. On the same pair of glasses, one of the nose pieces fell off the day after they arrived.

Terrible customer service, no real person. They dragged my order so my prescription expired. I can't buy it from anyone else now and no money returned. Gave me store credit. I am not buying anything from you. Messed up just whole order and my experience. Terrible you guys should do better
Hi Shakhlo,
We’re sorry to hear that you experienced difficulties with your order. It appears that the contact lenses that you ordered do not match the product on your prescription. As per current eyewear regulations, no retailer is able to provide you with a product that you are not prescribed. Our Customer Care Team has sent you an email regarding the status of your order.
Our apologies for any inconvenience.

It was very easy to order. I did have a hard time reaching out to a representative. I messed up on my prescription and tried to contact a representative. I reached out through email, phone and chat but it was automotive. My glasses were fine. The look really good I was able to get 2 for the price of 1. I would defiantly order again. Just please make sure that you check your prescription before placing the order.
Delivery took a long time. Paid for expedited shipping but could never find out when glasses actually shipped? I guess that's so you can get out of the 1-3 days shipping that came by regular post office mail.

First, I contacted GlassesUSA for a warranty claim on glasses purchased last summer. They could not replace the broken glasses, but offered me 25% off. I reluctantly accepted and ordered a different pair. The glasses arrived with non-prescription lenses, not as ordered, and I immediately requested a return/exchange. It's now 2+ weeks later and I haven't received a return label or bar code to take them to a Happy Returns location. I've contacted customer service more than once to ask again, but you can only talk to bots. I want my money back so I can order the glasses I desperately need -- from somewhere else.
Hi Becky,

I spent over $500 on two pairs of prescription glasses. One of the pair arrived in a case that was destroyed. This happened at their facility. Someone literally placed a destroyed case into the glasses box (which was pristine) and then into the shipping box. This is what they think of their customers. When I asked for a replacement case, with images, they said they didn't have anymore. Do they really expect me to believe that?_______________

Hi Jason,
We're sorry to hear that you received a damaged frame case. Thank you for your feedback. An update was sent to you on May 26 from our Customer Care Returns Team.
Our apologies for any inconvenience.

It took almost three weeks to get my order. In this day and age of shipping, this is archaic. Only to find that I didn't like the glasses and now have to send back. The online "try on" isn't accurate and all of the glasses were bigger in person than on screen
Hi,
We're sorry to hear that the glasses you had ordered are too big for you. It is important to keep the frame size in mind when looking for a new pair of glasses. You can determine the size you need by checking the size of the glasses you are currently wearing. To locate the dimensions of your existing frames, you can check the inside of the temples (or arms) for a set of three numbers. Please check out our video describing how to read the dimensions printed on your frame.
Learn more in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPaoavBL0e4
When you have determined the dimensions of your current frames, you will be able to compare them to the measurements listed under each frame’s product description. Please note that when comparing your dimensions to those on the website, the temple amount should remain about the same. However, the Lens Width and the Bridge amount can be within two millimeters above or below your current measurements. Each frame on the website comes in the one size listed.
We created the Virtual Try-On Mirror so you could get a more accurate picture of how the frames fit your face. To use it, simply follow these steps:
1. Click on the frame you like.
2. Click the small tab below the main photo with the words 'try it on'
3. Click the blue box just below this image that says ‘UPLOAD IMAGE.’
4. Choose an image from your computer, Facebook or even take a photo with your webcam.
As the Try It on feature will not take measurements into account, it cannot be used as a sizing tool. As such, we strongly recommend that you also check the measurements listed below the frame’s product description and compare them with your current frames.
You can also check out our short video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8h9oLQRIn8A&list=PLOonA-W9TFeXRK_VZQ5eXmNImODb-qvW8&index=4
We are also sorry to hear that the shipping timeline did not meet your expectations. Once the order has left our facilities, we rely on the courier service for all additional details on the status of your shipment. However, if any delay, error, or incident occurs, we will do everything we can to resolve it and get your order to you as soon as possible.

I guess you get what you pay for...Horrible customer service. Text dialogue with chat bot was a lesson in frustration. Prescription sports glass strap failed after 10 uses... Took them two weeks to finally get back to me with an "Oh Well" response... "past the 14-day return window". All I was looking for was to BUY a replacement strap. Way too hard.

Been buying glasses here for over 10 years, but that just stopped. The headline says most of it, but there are a couple more things: can't talk / chat to a human being, even though Glasses USA says it's "live chat", didn't / haven't responded to 3 emails to their service department and no invoice / statement with the glasses.
I did receive the correct frames though.
I very poor customer experience.

I have always had great success and customer satisfaction from GlassesUSA.
Customer service with Glasses USA is a joke. It's all digital you can't actually talk to anyone. Also they say 3 days for production I'm in day 9 and still nothing and I paid for expedited shipping. Won't order from them again if my glasses ever show up.

This was my second order from glassesUSA and it's exactly what I needed. Great selection, my new glasses arrived in a reasonable time and were a reasonable price for brand name frames.
I uploaded all information and there was an error with the prescription. Because of this error, even though I rectified it within an hour, the glasses were delayed over a week.

Easy purchase is correct, however, the glasses I chose they stated were small meaning in diameter. They are not compared to the glasses I generally wear they're huge. But they're fine. I don't think I got the tinting or the extras I paid for. I have not addressed it with them yet, but I have a suggestion. How about putting a little note inside the glasses case that has checkmarks on the extra items that you got that were checked and double checked so we can be sure that we're getting what we paid for. My glasses don't seem to have any blue tinting. I don't know if they're scratch resistant any other things I paid for, when you pay for shipping that clock only runs after they received your order and your order is complete, but I think you still get the glasses pretty speedy.
Hi Tyler,
We have the Find My Size option to enter your frame measurements to see which overall size would be the best fit for you. We also have a Custom filtering option under Size that allows you to search based on the lens and temple/arm measurements.

I got my order and was surprised it did not come with a glass case. The packaging could have been better. It came inside a damaged box.
Nice glasses but I was surprised by how long it took to get them. It was over 3 weeks and almost a month. I had ordered from a competitor (company not owned by luxotica) and received them much faster.
