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.

I love my new sunglasses
January 12, 2023

This is the first pair of prescription sunglasses ever and I love them so much. Fast delivery, they look and feel amazing and the prescription is perfect.

No way to simply update a prescription
January 11, 2023
Updated review

I'm happy with the glasses I purchased from EyeBuyDirect last year. So, this time, I simply wanted to get those exact same glasses (frames, lenses, and options) with an updated prescription. Your site doesn't seem to provide any way to do that. I had to start over from scratch, hoping I was making the same choices I had made last time

Easy to maneuver and beautiful frames. Also, I didn't like how a pair looked and they took them back and credited back to a new pair with no admonitions

Good, but unsure
January 10, 2023

I ordered a pair of glasses March 2022. That stated they had a one-year warranty. December 2020 to the glasses break due to natural breakage no aggressive, force or anything used when contacting I buy direct to take advantage of one year warranty was informed that I would pay only the difference in the frames not in the lenses or anything, I ended up paying for both the lenses and the difference in the frames so the glasses ended up being more than the original pair that I had purchased granted the fact I did have to get a different frame because the original one I had was out I don't feel like this is a real warranty replacement experience due to the craftsmanship of the original product. But overall the glasses were in expensive less than $50 so there is not a lot to complain about you do get what you pay for.

The glasses were perfect. The prescription came and were better than the ones I received at my optometrist. The only disappointing aspect was the length of time it took them to arrive. Everything else was spot on!
