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.

So easy!
April 5, 2020

I was so worried that my glasses wouldn't come with the right prescription because of how easy it was to put in my info but they even have a video on exactly how to put your prescription in. My glasses were delivered before they were even supposed to ship which I was excited about! & my prescription was on point! The hardest part was having to drive to my eye dr's to pickup my prescription lol but I will definitely be ordering again! So cheap too! Glasses from my eye dr cost me $80 after insurance! I paid a fraction of that with eyebuy direct! Highly highly recommend!

Delivery not as advertised
April 5, 2020

Really good price and nice glasses.
Paid extra money for 2-3 day shipping and the glasses came 10 days after we ordered them. My expectations were that the process would be close to a week. Maybe some clarity when ordering of how long they take to manufacture then ship would help.

Wonderful service from a nice young lady who helped me with the input of prescription and explained it all. Another company took too much for granted and therefore I did not use their services. Also Eyebuydirect
Has all the frames one could wish for.

Order came a little late as usual
April 5, 2020
Updated review

So the Sunglasses I ordered were NEVADA - BROWN STRIPE. However, in person, these glasses do not appear as they're advertised on the site. A new image of those sunglasses needs to be posted on the site as the one customers see. Because the frames are NOT brown striped, they're maroon.

With my Sebastian eyeglasses, I am THRILLED! They're beautiful and comfortable and I can SEEEEE!

My only complaint is how long it takes to deliver them.

Exchange went pretty well
April 5, 2020

The glasses I first chose were too big, but I was able to return them postage paid and try another pair. I had to wait on the phone a little long to get it taken care of, but the people who helped me were helpful. I hoped I could do the exchange online, but I didn't ever hear back or get the refund, so I had to call in.

Better shipping jnfo
April 5, 2020

We loved the site. Just got confused about shipping. We chose to pay an extra $20 to get the glasses sooner. We thought that meant we would receive them in 2-7 days. But after not receiving them for almost 2 weeks we called and were told that it takes up to two weeks just to make the glasses and that extra money was just to expedite the shipping process. Somehow this should be made clear throughout the process. Thanks for a great product.
