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 always get good glasses
September 18, 2018

I believe I've been buying eyewear from EyeBuyDirect since 2012. I have looked at two other well known websites but the prices are better and it's easier to chat with someone on EyeBuy. Two bits of info, the versus frame broke on me twice. (Two different pair) It's the only frame I don't trust. I have so many of others and they are very well made. It would be nice to have an update on your website so it's easier to find EBDBlue and SightRelax and if I am ordering incorrectly it will tell me so. But I was able to chat away any confusion so no biggy. Thanks so much, I love my glasses and have referred a friend who buys from you a lot.

So I tried these guys instead of the G-USA website who sent me the wrong glasses and just had a customer service fiasco. EBD is 100% better. I got my glasses in about 7 days order to door. High quality, good price, fast delivery = happy customer.

Haven't Looked Back Since
September 17, 2018

I've been a customer of EBD since 2016 and haven't looked back since then. I made several purchases of stylish glasses and am always in awe of how convenient buying online has been. The only downside would be that several of the frames I've purchased have loosened over time (within months) and they are easily re-tightened.

I ordered two pairs online. And confirmed the purpose for each of the lenses in the provided box. Then they emailed me 3 separate times, asking me to confirm the purpose of the lens. No matter how I worded it they could not understand me. The long distance lens are for general use, the reading ones are also for general use. They're both for general use. Both are for regular everyday use, because that's what the doctor prescribed. THEY JUST COULD NOT BELIEVE ME BECAUSE... WHAT?

When I finally (desperately) needed my lenses, they came in the mail wrong. I double check what I filled, and no issue. How could they seriously mess up that badly?

Great buy
September 17, 2018

I like the fact that if you don't like the fit, you can return the pair for a new pair. Have returned several times to purchase,

I'd like for there to be an option to try just the frames. For example, get a few shipped to me then send them back knowing which will fit just right.

Thanks you

Fantastic
September 16, 2018

I love cheap glasses for everyday bumping around. Save the expensive glasses for better times. You can never have too many, especially reading glasses for every room.
This is good for me, don't care what the world thinks.

ISSUES WITH CHECKOUT

For some reason, it was not working to select AMEX or PayPal. I had to try four times to checkout. My prior phone ordering was professionally and patiently handled.

Very simple and useful tools to choose the perfect eyewear. Their turn is only s phone call away! Even though the customer service agents are from the Philippines they try their best to help in any way they could. I've been using this site for two years now and I'm still a happy customer.

Good, Fast, Cheap
September 16, 2018

Been using them for years for my fashion frames, so cheap in comparison to other places and turnaround is less than a month, which I am really happy about. I change up my style often so it's cool my glasses can change with it. Been using EyeBuyDirect since 2015 and keep coming back!

They offer great quality glasses for an affordable price and have great customer service. I love the options they have and own about 5 pairs of glasses from them. I had an issue with how I received one and they had no problem sending me a new pair. I had also been unsatisfied with how one of the frames fit me so I returned them within the 14 days and got my refund.
