EyeBuyDirect.com sells prescription eyeglasses and frames, as well as sunglasses.
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've been a customer for years and I've always been really happy with every single pair I've purchased.
The nose pieces could use some deburring. I noticed they cut into my nose when I would push up on them.
The US mail was a longer wait than I expected and I spoke with customer service, and they were helpful
Eyebuydirect has a variety of glasses that are not only cheap but fast! I'll continue to buy from here as they're reliable and always providing new and stylish glasses.
My previous experience was fine. I just wish there were more rimless options this time.
I will never buy glasses anywhere else now. I have been pleased with everything I have ordered and the one order I didn't love they sent me a return label and a full refund immediately. They make it so easy!
I have been pleased with all of my glasses I have received from EyeBuyDirect. Good quality for a great price.
This is a great way to buy quality glasses for a great price. I love that they have a wide range of options when it comes to price and style
I love the glasses I have ordered and came back to order more!
I simply uploaded my prescription and picked my favorite frames. The best part was that I was able to use my HSA card to pay!
This site is so much better than pay for over priced frames and lenses at the stores!
Live Chat was helpful in getting the right selection of glasses. I hope they fit better.
I have not yet received my sunglasses, but ordering was easy.
I went to verify that my RX I ordered was incorrect. I understand that when I ordered an express delivery that is not possible to update my RX and correct my mistake. When I contacted customer service, they charged me an extra $20 to void my order and to fix the RX. I would suggest having a notification that pops up re verifying the RX. That would have saved me $20 and I would have given a 5 Star rating. Thank You
Very easy to order. I do wish you could get the progressives faster though.
I love the ease of navigation on the website and the easy flow of the process. The selection is great and prices amazing. The rest of my family trusts eyebuydirect and buys their glasses from them!
The shipping take time to get to you. Glasses break easy. I bought 6 pair total about 1100 bucks. 2 months later 3 pair and they were the cheapest pair.
Answer: Or you can be like me and have not received your order after more than a month of waiting. Granted, I'm in Guam, but given that the USPS works here pretty much the same way it works in the states, no other retailer has any problem getting their packages to me in a timely manner. The company has sent me two different tracking numbers for the same package. The tracking report from the post office says the package was supposed to be here 12 days ago and the last time it appears the package was scanned was 24 days ago. I have emailed the company multiple times and every time they reply with some generic apology and continue to stall. The package clearly got lost in the mail, I get that and I am typically a reasonable person but any respectable merchant intent on providing good customer service in today's online marketplace would have owned up to the issue and offered a refund or have already shipped out a replacement product. They've done neither. Does it mean they are bad people running a bad business? Probably not. However, it does mean there are probably better companies out there to give your business to who won't take so long to get you your glasses.
Answer: It depends on the frame. Some are plastic, some are metal, and there are other materials used as well. The descriptions will indicate the materials they are made out of. I've ordered 3 pairs from EBD ($6 and $9 pairs--cheapest there are) and they are excellent quality. An equivalent pair of frames alone from the store would have cost $150+, not including lenses.
Answer: I received two pairs very quickly but was very disappointed when i put them on only to find out the prescription was completely wrong. There are no refund or exchange directions in your website or with the packaging, so I did not know the number to call. Please get in touch with me asap about exchanging the glasses for ones with the correct lenses. Thank you very much. My name is Ellen Mazzeo Larkfield road East norport, ny Phone: 917-763-0092 I the glasses came without any paperwork and I do not have the order number that was originally used on both pairs. I bought them within this past month or so. (This is after returning a pair that I sent back for the same problem(. Please call me or email me so I can figure out how to correct this error. Or please send me your customer service phone number that I can talk to someone live. Thank you. Emazzeo
