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 ordered 5 pairs and 1 time and honestly should have ordered 1 to work out the kinks. Overall they are decent for the price. I would recommend upgrading lenses. I did not and although it says antiglare-it is not great and the lenses are not super clear.
Overall good experience. They have a very reasonable return policy. I decided to return the pair I picked. They work fine but, the frame was just too large for my face. They said I can hang on to this pair until a new pair arrives.
I like having the glasses categorized into S,M,L that is helpful for the fit. The styles are great. But best of all the prescriptions are spot on.
These glasses are up to par quality wise for a fraction of the cost!
Third time to buy. Love your large selection and virtual try on. Thanks for fast shipping!
The price for my progressives was great. I emailed with customer service asking questions about my progressives and they wouldn't directly answer the questions. I don't know if they didn't understand the question or simply didn't know how to answer. I don't know if I could have called, but I emailed as I was at work. For the price I'm keeping the glasses. I may order another pair at some point, but I would probably go with a smaller frame.
I am amazed at the affordable prices Eyebuydirect provides. This makes eyeglass shopping as affordable and kindred to clothes shopping or makeup shopping. Glasses make a statement in our attire, but for eons we have been cursed with glasses with high prices. So, what happened? We were stuck with one pair of the same 'ol glasses for years, and years, and years! Only when our prescription changed, we had the opportunity, if we could afford it, to change the style. Now, through Eyebuydirect, I can change the style every day of the week! OMG! That is sooooo awesome! The quality is excellent, the frames are lightweight, and the style selection is humongous! I will continue to purchase my eyeglasses from Eyebuydirect! <3
Great efficient service. Got my glasses sooner than expected!
Great variety and selection with low prices. Love my glasses and service.
Thank you for giving an option to Luxotica. And your prices are still a bit better than Warby Parker. However, since I have no idea how the actual glasses would feel or fit, I wish I could try it on first.

Nice quality and easy to purchase.I especially like the virtual try on.
Could easily exchange glasses that did not fit in person. Came quick and fast shipping!
The process of choosing the frames and then the lenses was easy to understand and complete
Quick and easy to use. Came quick, and they were a great price
I love buying here, I find the most cutest glasses on this site! So many verities!
Very happy and very pleased with my new glasses. Good choice of frames and colors
It would be nice to be able to send directly to insurance, but otherwise a great experience. Love the glasses
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
