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.

Hundreds of frames to select from, lots of options for lenses and prescription, and very good customer service when things aren't right. My favorite place to get glasses
Always see something I like and at an incredibly affordable price.
Staff was helpful, always has deals to allow me to get 3 pair for the price I pay at the doctors office
Its bad not to be able to buy premium brands. Would like for the company to add shipping to PR
Love eye buy! My glasses are still in amazing condition (purchased 2 years ago) and I can't wait to get my new pair! I went with the same type of look just different color and slightly different prescription. I always get compliments on my glasses and they didn't break the bank! Great quality.
I had compliments on my glasses every time I wore them! So when I had my eyes examined yesterday I came back for more sunglasses!
I've loved the glasses i've gotten and the price is great. Customer service was ok, not great once when shipping got screwed up. They fixed it, though.
THIS is the way to buy glasses online! Excellent frame selection, and clear instructions for completing the order at every step of the way.
Everything I could have ask for, great second set of glasses
Love the frames I purchased they fit perfectly and the quality of the lenses
Amazing service and product! They have a variety to choose from
This makes buying glasses painless and economical! I love this site!
My package came very quick and everything was in good condition.
When I need affordable extra pairs this is my go-to. The time to receive and quality of the glasses is comparable to my optometrist's office, but the value is not. This is great if you want to buy from the beginning or just need an extra pair 🥰
I usually receive orders pretty quickly and they are well packed so never arrive damaged. Glasses are low cost and comfortable to wear.
Many selections and affordable prices. Smooth delivery and great quality glasses
You cannot beat the cost and quality...and when I have had a purchase not work out, returns and refunds were easy. Cannot recommend enough.
Straightforward, no hassle. Easy to navigate through selections and cart to payment.
I have bought from Eyebuydirect many times. I appreciate that I can go back and buy the same pair of readers over and over again, because I use, lose, and abuse them.
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
