I love my glasses, the are very cute and the experience has been wonderful that I bought 4 mire pairs of glasses.
Fast and easy process. Got multiple pairs for my son who easily breaks all glasses.
I have ordered a few times before. Correct prescription, quick turnaround and excellent communication.
Love my glasses. So affordable. Great quality and style.
Zenni delivered exactly what I ordered. I received my glasses in little to no time!
Ordered online, received in 22 days and they seem to be decent glasses for the price.
Always a great value. Consistent and pretty quick shipping.
First time ordering glasses that change when I go outside... the don't always adjust, and take forever sometimes to turn back once I'm inside... but I've used zenni a few times and as always... love them!
So fast and easy and much cheaper than the eye doctor. Very happy with my glasses.
It's my first time buying prescribed glasses on Zenni. My item arrived faster than I thought. Because I also ordered another pair from WhereLight (just to try different shops). Comparing Zenni with the local optic store from my optometrist and WhereLight, the local optic store is way too expensive for me, and WhereLight's delivery time was longer (it took 7+ days longer). Quality wise, Zenni's glasses are very good in quality, I'm a happy customer, will likely shop at Zenni again next time!
I am very pleased with the glasses I ordered. The frame quality was what I expected for a $6 pair of prescription glasses. I am thankful for a low cost option for my son who looses his glasses all the time. The delivery was really fast. I will definitely be ordering again.
Good quality glasses at a reasonable price! Fast shipping too!
I had a issue with my order, which was my fault but I called and the representative helped me figure out where I went wrong and fixed my order. I am pleased with my glasses.
Thank you for posting your Zenni review of the first two orders for eyeglasses you placed with us. We were sorry to learn that although you had intended to order two pairs of standard progressive eyeglasses on your first order, o4495899156, you inadvertently ordered one pair as single-vision distance eyeglasses. Consequently, we apologize for any disappointment you experienced when you received these eyeglasses. You returned these glasses to us for a 100 percent refund of their price in the form of store credit to your Zenni account, and you used the store credit toward the next pair of standard progressive eyeglasses you ordered, in order o4549358626. We are happy to know that you are pleased with these eyeglasses, and we thank you again for taking the time to share your heartening comments. Ms. Biddulph, we want you to know that at Zenni, we believe that it is a privilege to serve your eyeglasses needs, and we hope to do so for many years to come.
Great as usual. Like the little ruler for the different eye and glasses measurements.
The glasses are good for the price I paid for them
Loved them, comfortable and light. My favorite part is the color I'm happy with them.
Answer: Hi. We are sorry to tell you that we have recently and temporarily discontinued delivery to Spain. We hope to ship there again soon and we encourage you to check our website frequently to see when it is available again.
Answer: I had no problem with returning my initial pair of glasses. I contacted customer service via online chat and explained my reason for return and I was told I would receive 100% credit that could be applied to my reorder. I followed the return instructions given and kept track via USPS and the transaction went smoothly without any glitches.
Answer: Hi Reginald, thank you for your question! We do not manufacture only lenses, or lenses for non-Zenni frames. I am sorry about any inconvenience!
Answer: Hi. Yes, store credit is one of the options available when you contact us during the 30-day warranty period. And our Customer Service department will be eager to help you with the return. Please call us at 1-800-211-2105, email us at [email protected], or chat with us live by clicking on the floating Support button that appears near the bottom-right corner of any page on our website and a representative will issue a return authorization number and provide return instructions.
Answer: Hi. Progressive lenses contain three viewing areas: distance-, intermediate-, and near-vision - the distance vision area is near the top of the lens, the near vision area is at the bottom, and the intermediate vision area is in the middle. The clear viewing area is located in the central "corridor" of the lenses, so there can be a noticeable but expected blur when looking toward the edges of the lenses. Due to this design, and because there are slight differences between progressive lenses across brands, someone new to wearing progressive lenses may initially experience some difficulty adjusting to them; likewise, someone who is already accustomed to wearing one brand of progressive lenses may have some difficulty adjusting if they switch to a different brand, and they will find that it it will take some time to become accustomed to the new lenses. Despite the period of adaptation needed, we are happy to report that we do not receive a disproportionate number of complaints about our progressive lenses. However, we don't ever want to assume that needing time to adjust to the lenses is the only reason a customer could be having difficulty with their glasses; consequently, if you have recently purchased progressive lenses, and have problems seeing clearly through them, we encourage you to contact our Customer Service department at 1-800-211-2105. Doing so will give us an opportunity to address the issue and to offer you a proper resolution. Thank you for posting your question.
Answer: I had the same experience. Very disappointing. When I called about the problem they questioned the accuracy of my prescription. I was able to return them for a Zenni credit, less shipping costs. Waiting to see if the second pair is better...
Answer: Yes, it costs a little more for bifocal lenses. It does not however cost as much as it does in a typical eyeglass office/store.
Answer: None. There is no guarantee on anything (lenses or frames) beyond 30 days.
Our factory-direct, online model allows us to offer all the same high-quality lens options that you’d get from an optician and traditional brick & mortar retail at 1/10th of the price.

Thank you for posting your Zenni review of the order for two pairs of single-vision eyeglasses you placed with us, one of them a pair of single-vision glasses with pure polycarbonate lenses, and the other one a pair of single-vision polarized gray sunglasses with an indigo blue mirror finish on the lenses. We were pleased to read that you are satisfied with the glasses, but since you mentioned that you received them in 22 days, we looked up your order, o4496545188, and we saw that you placed it on February 1,2022. The U.S. Postal Service website advises that the glasses were delivered to you on February 23,2022, 22 days after you placed the order, just as you stated. Therefore, since you placed this order with Standard shipping, for $4.95, which comes with a 14-21-day delivery-time promise, insofar as the glasses were delivered to you one day past the 21st day, we are going to ask our lab to refund the $4.95 Standard shipping fee to the credit card you used to pay for the order. You should receive an email from our lab later tonight or tomorrow, confirming this $4.95 credit card refund with a transaction number. We thank you again for mentioning the delivery time, which gave us an opportunity to refund the shipping fee, and for your assessment of the eyeglasses, with which we were happy to know that you are satisfied.
