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.

Title says it all. I have ordered 5 pairs of glasses over time and not once has the advertised discount code actually been valid. The regular price is still decent enough to let it go, but it appears to be a bogus marketing effort
I have been a faithful customer for over 15 years and I probably won't buy my glasses from anywhere else EVER.
Thank you for always having so much selections! Appreciate it!
The first pair of glasses that I ordered did not stand the test of time, but I did enjoy the convenience of ordering from here, so I am trying again with a set that looks more robust.
The notes that the first customer service representative left regarding my return/exchange, were different than what I was told over the phone. I was told I would receive my new glasses once they were back in stock (clear Lindens). I called to confirm today and there were no notes regarding my glasses. Complete failure in communication from the first representative I spoke with. This is unacceptable and really made me question if I wanted to continue purchasing from the site. I like the products from EBD but I have now had 2 bad experiences when dealing with returns or exchanges.
Small frames, they kinda hurt my head. A little sight around my ears.
Reliable lens and fast shipping. Very clear lens and never had problems with the orders
I enjoy the affordable, excellent quality I receive from EBD. I use bifocals at work and tend to eventually destroy them in the normal flow of my labors. Having a low cost replacement option is wonderful.
I have had these frames for several years they broke so now I'm just buying another pair
Love EyeBuyDirect! Affordable, accurate, fast! They never disappoint.
Lots to choose from and great quality. My son and I both love our eye glasses
I have enjoyed the services and products from eyebuydirect and I and so thankful. EXCELLENT SERVICE AND PRODUCTS EACH TIME.
I have been using eyebuydirect for a few years now and quality is so good!
There's affordable price options for everyone and they always have sales to help as well definitely love this company brand and the work they do thanks eyebuydirect
Looked for new frames similar to an old favorite, loved these!
Eyebuydirect has been great! Both of my children wear glasses and the price and choices are great!
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
