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.

This order was a replacement order for glasses that needed to be returned.
First time order, looking forward to getting new glasses!
I was disappointed to learn that my glasses were not going to be delivered within the time frame given. I would not have been so irritated if an update regarding delivery had been sent to me. When tracking my order, 'in transit, arriving late' was indicated for at least two weeks. When I called customer service, I have to be honest, the company location being in Texas and having a Chinese representative speaking very broken English made communication very difficult for me. The rep also indicated to me she was not able to locate my purchase because the product left the facility and they cannot track it. So customer service was annoying to me. I did receive my glasses but it took much longer than the company claimed it would take and they did not claim responsibility.
Somewhat tedious but I like the glasses I have chosen.
The glasses were a good price and with the virtual try on feature I had a good idea what to expect, the delivery was delayed however which was very disappointing.
It was easy to select and purchase glasses and they arrived quickly. I did have some issues with the reflection on the lenses and needed to upgrade the lens to help that issue.
I ordered these for my boyfriend for Christmas and they arrived on time. He loves them! Thanks so much
Fast easy to order, initial frames were incorrect size, the return and exchange process was simple and easy to manage.
I am thrilled with my new glasses! First, I searched online at other sites and always send them back because I did not like the frames. These are quality frames, they have an app that assists you with finding your prescription and I needed that because my doctor stopped taking my insurance. Of course my doctor wouldn't give me my information so if it wasn't for this app I would never know. I am thrilled with my new glasses!

I use them while I'm driving at night. It was quick and very simple process at checkout. Thank you! I have no problem coming back to your website.
It was quick, simple, and explanatory so I wasn't wondering what I purchased as it was a very descriptive review at checkout. Thank you!
Fun to try on each pair of glasses before purchasing. Thank you for serving us so well.

I loved my frames, they fit just perfect, but the lenses fog immediately as you put them on. I have other frames from a different store that don't fog like that.
Easy ordering. Great prices. Easy returns and great customer service.
Pretty smooth so far. I hope the fit, style and after sale service are just as good!

Fue mi primera compra, y estoy muy satisfecha por el producto, ya que tiene buena calidad y sobretodo me encanto el precio.
Not my favorite pair of glasses for such a long wait
A bit loose, no way to safely tighten. Also, nose pads loose and noisy, rattle.
This is the first time my glasses fit my face without falling off. My glasses were super affordable and cute.
I am having a problem with one of the two pair of glasses that I received. I am not sure if the lenses are different diopters or Some other problem with the optics. I am considering returning them.
This is probably my 7th or 8th order I love them! I have bought so many diferent colors and frames from them and always suggest them when people are looking for glasses!
Fairly easy to navigate website for first time user.
Thanks!
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
