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.

I wish there was an option for point five in the pupillary distance category. On my prescription it says 66.5 however I am only able to choose between 66 and 67
Every pair we have purchased were great quality and great price. Customer service has been professional, and very good problem resolution providers.
All good. Great reputation with all people I've met that has glasses.
The prices without insurance from EBD are better than the ones offered by my insurance-- less than half the price.
Still decent quality, and all of them last longer than my prescription
Progressive lenses matched perfectly prescription. Frame nice
After about two years the protective coating starts coming off. And you cannot see through them. Twice I had to send back glasses to fix the incorrect prescription. They always get it right the second time. SECOND time is the charm
I've been sent readers many times when I've paid for progressives and upgraded premium progressives. I don't know what's going on with that
Bought 59 glasses, with tint anti scratch etc. Frames broke after about 8 months, but at that price no big deal. Went to order again, was going to order same frame but they are discontinued. So at least maybe they discontinued them because of breakage issues. Will keep buying here!
Great glasses at great prices. A customer service team that is friendly, fluent and eager to help!
I always buy my glasses off of eyebyedirect and i'm always satisfied with my purchase. Can't wait for my new glasses :)
We buy all of our family glasses from here. The price is right and their selection is huge!
The glasses are adorable
They are a perfect fit everything you purchase
Great quality for the price, especially when we have several family members needing glasses.
I do multiple orders for my clients, easy and affordable!
Quality eyeglasses, great customer service, fast shipping
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
