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 have ordered many glasses off this site now. I love how fast and easy it is, and they always come in fairly quickly! The prices are amazing compared to what I was paying.

I have never had problems with this company. Even when I had a pair of eyeglasses break, they sent me a new pair within the week. And all I had to do was send them a picture of the broken pair.

I received my 2 pairs of progressive bifocals(one pair with transition lenses as well) at the early side of the 2-3 week window. I was thrilled and they looked even better than the 360-view app on the website. Thank you for making my first pairs affordable, prompt, and stylish!

So easy to order
March 14, 2019

Incredible easy to order. I love how clear all of the pictures are and how there are multiple angles of the models wearing the glasses. I can't wait for them to come in! And the price point is about 1/3 of what it usually costs me to get glasses. I'll definitely be purchasing glasses more often instead of spending 4 years with the same glasses. Scratches and stretched out doesn't work for me. Happy to be a first time EyeBuyDirect user and looking forward to returning!

A great money effective way of buying glasses for our daughter. Although the first pair broke within a month, our 2.5yo has also broken much more expensive frames. Am having another go, this time with a smaller frame. Still 1/5 of the price to ship to new zealand even with the $25usd ups shipping charge.

Straight lenses are very affordable. Bifocals started to get pricey. Too many lens types couldn't accommodate bifocals. I had to go through the process 3 times to find a pair that would work. A bit frustrating.
