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.

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.

I was looking for a second set of glasses with darkening lenses to wear while driving and going in and outside in the summer. I found what I wanted at a good price and it was shipped promptly.

I bought these as a backup to my pair I ordered from my health care provider. These arrived sooner, were way less expensive, and are more comfortable than my original pair!

Lack some features
July 26, 2025

Out of many online glasses places, this is overall best for price and shipping. When shopping I wish it would tell you if it's in your cart or if bought in the past. When I review my order, it doesn't show which prescription was used. Also, I wish I could get some of my lenses lightly tinted, such as a light pink tint for my glasses that are pink frames. Many frames are similar and I wish there were more color options for a lot of frames.

Love my glasses

Updated review

I've ordered 3 pairs of prescription glasses and love all of them. Even have a pair that were $7 and even though they're lighter than my pricier ones they're still durable and scratch free.

Good quality and good prices.

Great quality
July 26, 2025

EyeDirect is an innovative tool that helps maintain authentic eye contact during interviews and on-camera conversations. It enhances viewer engagement by allowing subjects to look directly into the lens while seeing the interviewer. The setup is user-friendly, making it ideal for capturing genuine, personal responses in documentary and commercial productions.

I've bought over 5 pairs with eyebuydirect and they're all been pretty good! The only complaint i would have is the specific frame (amore heart frame) i buy, gets loose in the center and i constantly have to tighten it. But other than that no complains!

Glasses are great

Our previous glasses are great. The chromatic while not as strong as their were 5 years ago still will transition to dark when in bright light. Love them still.
