Eyebuydirect Reviews Summary

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.

Really happy with the new specs!
March 20, 2023

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 price for glasses
March 19, 2023

Not needing an everyday wear pair of glasses had me look at ordering online as opposed to purchasing through my eye doctor. I only need glasses for at night when I remove my contacts. I was worried about not being able to try them on and that the sizing would be off, but I feel the sizing was pretty close to what the "try on" picture showed.

Excellent
March 18, 2023

My son asked me to buy glasses from here. I was very skeptical as I never heard of EyeBuyDirect before. Shipped fast, super affordable, saved me over a hundred bucks! Packaged nice! I will definitely buy from gere again!

I placed an order one month ago. Glasses came in and they were totally wrong. I took them to my eye doctor and he laughed. He said he had no idea what prescription they were. I contacted the company, and they issued me a new pair. I uploaded my script and they said the new glasses would arrive in 2 weeks. I just got the new ones today, and they are also wrong. I have now been trying to get a full refund to my credit card. It was a major hassle. I used their chat option, it took forever to connect. When they did connect, the agent never replied. I had to connect again with the chat option, and again, no reply. AVPOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COSTS

Crystal Clear Perfect
March 20, 2023

Extremely happy with these. The transitions work great. My husband bought a pair from eye doctor and eye buy direct and the eye doctor ones he is bringing back as they are inferior and prescription is off. Glad there is this option and don't have to pay so much especially if you need a backup pair.
