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.

Good but not great
June 11, 2022

While you can see a virtual preview before buying, it's hard to get a "feel" of the glasses. Feel for the nose bridge, feel of the overall weight, and feel of how the thickness of frames look when wearing. Overall, I would buy again, due to pricing but, it's very hard to try before you buy.

Small head
June 11, 2022

The glasses just don't fit me. I have a small head and face I guess. I buy the kids glasses, but then they they are not wide enough. I would love to have more options of extra small for adults.

Good, but would like faster shipping options. If I could have my glasses shipped in 3-5 days instead of 7-14 that would be great.

Prescription Transitions
June 9, 2022

They sent the wrong prescription, I sent them back. They promised to replace then made excuses for 6 weeks, while sending me emails everyday asking me to buy glasses. Finally demanded a refund after to 10% off offers to wait. Will not trust them again. *****BUYER BEWARE ******
