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.

14 Day Rule
July 29, 2025

I initiated the return request before the 14-day mark. My return was granted but I was told to call in to get it finalized. I work during the day and am unable to call so I am being penalized because of your insufficient system for customer returns.

Horrible user-interface
July 28, 2025
Updated review

I tried to reorder my glasses WITH A NEW PRESCRIPTION. They make it so difficult... I *guarantee* that their developers have never tried to order (or reorder) glasses. One of the worst user-interfaces that I've ever encountered.
I tried to reorder glasses with a new prescription and they made me jump through a couple dozen hoops. And why in the world would they make you click fifteen times to display each prescription? Why don't they have a "view all" feature?
More proof that their developers have never purchased glasses from their own website.

What does "previous" mean?

Previous review

I don't care for your site's (or this survey's) user interface. There are WAY TOO MANY clicks required in order to make a purchase. And watch out if you want to reorder WITH A NEW PRESCRIPTION. Double the amount of clicks.

Prices are very high
July 28, 2025

I have been a member for some time now and in the last year the prices have been astronomical. It's not as affordable as it was even just last year. Please reconsider this

Good Glasses
July 27, 2025
Updated review

I always buy my glasses from Eye Buy Direct. Good company, reasonable prices, but I remember seeing better frames. I still like my frames but purchased a previous pair and they no longer have the same frames. My new frames are just as cool and I look good in them.

Cannot wear plastic frames as they place lenses too close to my eyes plus, I will only buy titanium. Since I have a very narrow bridge and narrow face these Nate frames were my sole option.
