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 spend at least 8 hours a day during the work week in front of a computer. My $300+ glasses I bought at my eye doctors office had some sort of coating that was supposed to help my eyes when looking at my computer screen. However, I could still feel tension in my eyes at work and I'd often have a headache by the end of the day. I ordered the Lake frames with the EYEZEN bundle and UV protection hoping it would help. The price was pretty reasonable so I thought it was worth a shot. I felt my eyes relax immediately when I put my glasses on and looked at my computer screen. The only color difference I've noticed is the white on the computer screen doesn't seem as eye searingly bright. I don't know how the digital screen protection works but I haven't had a headache from looking at my computer screen since I purchased these glasses. So totally worth it!
I saw an ad on Facebook for affordable glasses-which I needed because I dont wear my glasses that often, but need to have them around just in case. So, having cheap glasses helps me not only be able to change stylish glasses often, but I get to keep one in my car, my boyfriends car, at home and at work! On top of that, I get compliments on them all the time! I love Eyebuydirects motto about changing glasses like you change shoes. :) Its nice that since I am forced to wear glasses, that I at least get to wear cute glasses!
After a second attempt to get my progressive prescription correct, they've failed again. Worse than that, apparently their 30 day refund/exchange program only works ONE time. So, if they get it wrong the second time, tough stuff. Guess what? They got it wrong twice. Now I guess I can just toss them. What a waste of money. DO NOT use Eyebuydirect.com
Have had nothing but good luck with my 2 previous purchases. Glasses have lasted one year or more. Hoping for the same with my latest purchase.
My glasses broke 6 months into wearing them (I did not even wear them all the time, only to watch tv in bed and occasionally to work) I was very disappointed, I just picked them up and the handle came off. I contacted eyebuydirect and they told me they'll send me a free pair I was very happy with the customer service until they told me I had to pay $10 for shipping. Customer service sucks felt like I was talking to a robot and I had to repeat myself multiple times plus shipping should have been covered 100% when it is not even remotely my fault the glasses broke. I am getting my so called "free pair" and never ordering glasses there again. Even if the glasses are on the cheaper side if $30 are going to break every few months I don't think that's worth it. I'll try zenni.
I was so happy with the quality of these. I was considering Warby Parker but decided to try out EBD first. I bought two pairs of prescription glasses and one pair of prescription sunglasses for cheaper than I would have spent for ONE pair of glasses at Warby Parker. Excellent quality and cheap enough that I won't feel awful if I accidentally sit on them.
I haven't gotten my glasses yet, but the ordering process was easy. However, the code I used for free shipping was for USPS shipping only, and I wasn't given the option for that method, so I was a little upset about having to pay $19 for shipping.
I have excellent experience before and hope to continue doing business with you. Expecting my third order soon. It is easy to recommend your company with my friend and relatives because of your products and professionalism and great prices, thanks.
Thank you for providing multiple sizes, petite people have a hard time finding glasses because theyre in between adult sizes in kid sizes.
I love using this website because I can select many filters so I will only be looking at what interests me!
very easy website to navigate. has useful information. found what i needed. havent tried the glasses yet but the website is very user friendly.
Ive ordered from here many times and I'm never disappointed. They are a great value, and ease of ordering is best.
Good selection of glasses & sunglasses and it was easy to order and add my sunglasses prescription and Everything went smoothly now I just wait for my sunglasses to arrive
Website not super easy to use, but love the varied selections and add-on options. Good pricing. Satisfied customer - 5th time to order
Love my glasses! They came in a timely fashion and look so good on! Ive spent hundreds of dollars on glasses before and I've never felt as confident in them as do with my ones from this site. The site was so easy to navigate to, I was a little hesitant to buy glasses online but this site made it very easy. I am very happy with my purchase
Es la primera vez que hago un pedido y hasta ahora me siento segura espero sea rĂ¡pido la entrega y de calidad
It was fine. Considerably less expensive than other online sites. Figuring out the sizes was a bit difficult. Pictures do not look good based on size of the glasses.
The products and price are good, but the website is slow to load and the payment process lingers on forever before accepting your credit card. Payment screen is NOT easy to us.

I'm still getting used to ordering glasses online since my eyes are very bad, I love the style choices! It's so hard to find stylish glasses in a store without a ridiculous price tag, these are so doable and super cute!
I have purchased eyewear from this site for the last 3 years, and I am impressed with the quality of the glasses. I am only purchase new glasses because my prescription has changed. The last pair of glasses are still in good shape, and I loved the design(Hampton). I will continue using this site for my eyewear.
