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.

Looks good
April 13, 2018

The frame looks good and the lenses are affordable. Since I don't get my glasses, I will wait to see if the purchase is a wise one

And the website just a little more user friendly regarding order modifications. I also realized after 3 or 4 days my order was on hold, i guess for verification... but no one notified me of that so im not sure how log they would have sat on hold. Otherwise ive had success with Eyebuy in the past, they're also favored by consumer reporting if youd like to decide for yourself.

April 13, 2018

Excellent. For the money decent quality. Just wish I could get them sooner! Maybe they could offer scratch resistant lenses? Just a thought.

I look forward to to receive my new glasses! I am happy that there was a promo code for my 1st purchase. I was able to get 20% off and free shipping. I am excited to be able to wear my sunglasses right before summer. Yay!

Very Nice
April 12, 2018

I ordered my glasses for the first time and I love them. I had my eye doctor check them when I had my 2nd visit and she said they were spot on. I was and still am very happy with my purchase. I like them so much I ordered a pair of sunglasses and can't wait to get them

I have been using EyeBuyDirect for awhile now. It was the best referral I ever received. For less than the price of one pair of non name brand, I can get three or more pairs to fit different styles.

I've ordered one pair from here a year ago and just ordered another pair today. Love that they now have a 14-day style fit period. Makes the process much less stressful.

Disappointed
April 11, 2018

The thing that was really unhappy with was their customer service. I bought 2 pairs of glasses because I wasn't sure which ones were going to suit me best. Turns out neither pair looked good on me so I decided to exchange them for a different pair. I called them to arrange a swap and the lady on the phone just couldn't understand what I was trying to say and she kept wanting to exchange the ordered 2 pairs with 2 new pairs. Since that painful 10 minute chat on the phone, I have had countless back and forth emails, every time with a different representative, trying to up-sell and me having to repeat myself that I only want the one pair of glasses. The order for the replacement pair has now gone through and have received an refund for the difference, but I did not receive and invoice for it all. I asked for one and the email they replied with contained no attachment. I emailed asking again and they sent me the invoice for the first 2 pairs of glasses which I was returning. Such a JOKE! So I am still waiting for the correct invoice and the glasses are being made as we speak.

Easy Eye Order
April 11, 2018

Very simple. I love the try on feature. Easy ordering and not a bad selection of lenses. It took no time at all. I only hope that the glasses are a good fit the first time!

I was supposed to get 15% off but it would not apply it. Was really hard to enter on credit card. Tried to scan my card for 5 min and it never did work

Good quality
April 11, 2018

Good quality glasses, pairs last about a year with heavy use, scratches up pretty easily but let long if taken care of
