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 liked the try on feature. I am new to buying online glasses. Your website was user friendly. The prices were great!
Great selection of glasses. I love it. Got my first pair. And now ordering 2 pair more.
Awesome look! And great prices. Better then any opthomology places.
This was my second time ordering glasses from EyeBuyDirect. The first experience was much better than I expected, and so I came back to fill my new prescription. I liked the original frames, so I ordered the same ones. The only way people will know anything is different is that these are photochromic, so they're also sunglasses. I can hardly wait to try them on.
I can only give a review on the ordering process because I've just ordered and haven't received them yet. The ordering process was pretty simple and there is a great selection to choose from. I hope I am as pleased with the glasses as I am with the ordering process.
All i had to do was add my prescriotion into my profile and it automatically had the frames that would fit my prescription.
I Have been Using this Site Sense 2012, Never Have I been Disappointed! I Love this Site! These Clear Ones Are my Favorite!
I have never bought glasses online before but this site made it a very pleasant experience. I will certainly use them again next time and recommend them to my friends.
EyeBuyDIrect is the best! They have a large selection of glasses that are affordable. With OTHER online glasses websites, you have to spend hours deciding which frames to pick because of the lack of selection, but with EyeBuyDirect, they have the best glasses and chose my frame within seconds. The website is user friendly and spent less than 3 minutes because of the simplicity of the website. Recommend this website to anyone!
EyeBuyDirect made a long time customer out of me! Thank you, EyeBuyDirect!
Try on feature is amazing. Great prices. Highly recommend eye buy direct for all your eyeglasses needs
Lots of variety of styles, materials, and prices.
I'm back for my 2nd & 3rd pair (2 for 1 Father's Day deal - Thanks!-)
Overall the website and its navigation are very user friendly and self explanatory. However, when you try to upload a photo, the photo box remains blank and the photo is not uploaded properly which was kind of awkward and frustrating. Because I needed to order ASAP as I was getting sick of my daughter's wishes / color selections etc. I ended up using my phone to place the order. Even when I try to upload my proof of purchase, had the same issue.
I was drawn in by the BOGO offer only to learn I was snagged by the deal being only for the frames... I think that's very dishonest. Nevertheless, I decided to give you a try but only bought one pair of glasses... the sunglasses. I truly thought this was a genuine BOGO offer like other companies do, but it isn't. Read the small print carefully. I still don't know if I can return these if I don't like them.

My 25 yr old son is always losing or breaking his glasses, nothing to do with the frames. He can't take responsibility for his stuff. These are a great price for him. I like the buy 1 get 1. I put the extra pair up for him for the next time.
I am pleased to have ordered affordable, prescription sunglasses. Looking forward to them arriving and trying them out!
Prices are great and this sites offers you a variety of frames, colors and different styles for you to chose. Its friendly user, it navigates and explains every detail you need to know.
I've ordered so many glasses and have told so many people about Eye Buy Direct. I change them with outfits and don't feel super guilty if they get scratched up
This is my second order. I have a very strong prescription and was really happy to learn I could order tinted lenses that will work like sunglasses for me. A great way to use my HSA account!
Ordered from here twice now and have never had issues. Great product selection and was able to find styles I liked.
This was the easiest way to order online glasses.
I love the prices and the many many different frames to pick through.
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
