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 lost my first pair of glasses on a camping trip and refused to consider any other option. I simply reordered the same pair from eyebuydirect.
Easy to navigate thru site, decent prices for basic lenses, great selection, and best of all, amazing customer service. Still 5-stars but would be awesome if there was a way to find doctors in my area so I can be equally money-savvy.
Great product and quick service. Thank you! Will use again!
Love the pair I have and like that I can afford to have more than one pair to wear
EBD is amazing and I have always had a positive experience on all 4 pairs of glasses I have ordered so far.
Great prices with great selections. I have never had progressive glasses but these are the best.
The process was quick and easy. Glasses arrived in a timely manner
I am not as computer savvy as I would like to be and the entire ordering process was lengthy and frustrating but I finally got it done.
The quality and variety is amazing. I will keep buying from eye buy direct!
Customer service is amazing the people on the other side of the line are so kind and helpful. The glasses are very flattering and lightweight as well
Very fast service, i have ordered prob at least 10 pairs from here.
Love that affordable price and amazing quality of the glasses
Every time I order from EBD it's such a seamless process. I have only good things to say about them. My whole family now orders from EBD after hearing the price of the glasses I wear!
Quick, easy, and cheaper than in person!
I have great eye insurance and i still save unbelievable amounts of money buying here than using my insurance at visionworks, Been wearing a pair of Bandon frames from 8 years now. Buying ANOTHER set of them today
Great and easy ordering. I especially like that one can "try on" glasses.
Prices are great. Fulfillment is fast. Customer service has been very helpful in the past.
Easy to shop and quick, generous with discounts. I love the site easy access abilities.
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
