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.

Never had a problem with this company over many years UNTIL NOW! I just ordered new glasses and what I received even my dog could not see through. What kind of mess is this company trying to pawn off on me? I am 73 years old and I need good Bifocals. I have no clue what they sent me but I can't see anything. I went on line to chat and got someone who just did not care and gave me a bunch of things I must do to return the glasses before they would give me my money back. Just trying to screw me over. I leave in 2 days to go overseas and I really needed these glasses so now I must go to a local eye clinic and get made overnight. I will be posting this on every review website I can find. How can you scam a Senior Citizen and Veteran like this?
The glasses arrived but do not look good on me. I am returning to chose another pair.
This is my first pair is glasses through EyeBuyDirect, but my second internet eyeglasses purchase. EyeBuyDirect was by far the better deal in terms of frame selection, prescription lense options, and price. I'm very pleased with my purchase!
I love EyeBuyDirect! Great selection, fair prices, & good qualify glasses!
Many choices...
Absolutely love this site will be buying again...
Just hoping that this is not too good to be true! Fantastic value. Will highly recommend after I receive my prescription glasses. Update...got the glasses. They are great
Easy... good selection easy to order great product at a good price
It was easy to order and the price for progressive lenses cant be beat.
The package was smartly assembled. The glasses look amazing.
My prescription Is not accurate and they differ from each pair I ordered.
Overall, a top notch experience! I had a failed attempt due to lenses that didn't fit the frames too well, but they were great about the return and the second pair was perfect!

Great service! Loved my new glasses, the color and fit was amazing!
Great customer service and perfect time. No complaints at all. Plus the frames are what I was looking forward to.
Easy to figure out frame size, easy to order, good selection, good price
Extremely easy to choose glasses, try on and checkout.
I have always loved every pair of glasses I have gotten from this company and LOVE not having to empty my bank account just to be able to see clearly.
This is an awesome way to buy prescription sunglasses. I am very pleased with my purchase. I love how you can try them on before buying,it makes choosing way easier.
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
