I received my glasses in a timely manner, but wld like to exchange 1 of 2 pairs. I filled out the return request and still awaiting a return number. You have 14 days to return. It's been 4 days since my initial request and have not heard anything. I don't like to do business this way. Just send the RA number and I'll pick a new pair. I'm not even asking for a refund, just a return/exchange. I have reached out twice so far... Nothing

I should've known better
April 29, 2021

These glasses are a beautiful aviator rose gold lenses that I found in Hawaii on vaca. I lost track how many time's the len has fallen out and luckily I never lost it! I had so many compliments on these glasses. I purchased a pair as a gift for my cuz and had them sent to her home as a surprise and a surprise it was! A len out and twisted frame! Soooo disappointed and embarrassed!

False advertising!
April 28, 2021

One day after ordering the fendi glasses I told them to cancel. They refused and when I got the glasses they don't look authentic at all! Will be returning!

I am very happy with the company since they shipped out both of my eyeglasses in the time they stated. However, USPS two day priority shipping wasn't worth the extra $15 dollars since it still took a week to get my items. Other than that I am very happy with my purchase.

Great! And will back buy more! My OP was surprised with the price I had paid for. I am not picky but just most these frames at OP's are not fit my face.

April 27, 2021

Great price and prompt service although USPS tracking was slow and goofy to use. Appears to be authentic although price was so good I was a bit suspicious. Quality appears to be very good Persol model 649 and I plan to purchase the 714 in the near future. Will recommend Designer Optics!

Don't order from here.
Either you will get FAKE GLASSES.
Or you will never get your glasses that you ordered.
If you don't get your glasses, you will NEVER get your money back!
Don't risk it. Go to Costco!

I have not received my order? No one responded to my emails and the hold time changes. As soon as I'm number 2 I get kicked back to number 13? I never experienced something like this. I'm contacting my HSA to let them know this is a scam site. I also suggest looking at the 5 star reviews with skepticism. I'm a real customer!

I made a purchase for some Versace sunglasses that I originally saw in Macy's for $260. I decides to shop around and found them at designer optics for $160 and recieved a discount that made them $124 after shipping. I was sold then! I orderes them and they were delivered to me within 5 days! I'll be buying all my glasses from this sight from now on!

I've ordered from this company(Designer Optics) several times which initially was great, however my experience with the last order -- eyeglass frames-- ( Feb. This year) has been nothing but problems -- I can't seem to get anyone on the phone( my last call was a 2hr wait --no answer) sent an e-mail still no response.(Note: I have spoke with a rep. But the issue with this current order has not been resolved) I question if this company is still in business or has cut back. My only option was to contact my credit card company file a claim to reverse the charge. Unfortunately, I would not recommend this company or order at your own risk!

I originally left a 1 star review because I honestly spent hours on hold with customer service. I spent 2.5 hours one day and was then pushed from 1st in the line back down to 10, so I gave up. I sent multiple emails and did not get a reply. The second time I called, it took over an hour to get through. I found out that they were closed the first time I called. There was no announcement and I was put on hold as I supposedly moved through the line. Since the processing and delivery time was not bad, and my glasses look to be authentic, I am very pleased with that and the price! Their customer service wait time is hernendous-and I said that I would never use them again-but now that I have my classes and I am pleased with the outcome thanks to virtual try-on, I rewrote the review. I was going to delete my other, but don't see it now.
