Good Safety Frames
March 19, 2022

Love them. Only complaint is the adjustable sides sometimes move and cause them to slide off. Great value for the cost.

I have had to return twice due to prescription errors however Zenni has been great to accept my returns. The frame choices are great. The only thing to be careful of is the tying on glasses. It depends on your camera, lighting and how you pose but for the most part, pretty great.

I'm happy with my purchase
March 19, 2022

They came in a reasonable amount of time and look nice. Hadn't wanted to spend on prescription sunglasses because I wear contact lenses most of the time, but on random weekends when I don't, I have to go out without any eye shade for the sun. These were priced low enough, even as bifocals to make me go ahead and buy.

Excellent glasses
March 19, 2022

These are just as good as a local optical shop and 1/3 of the price. I was concerned with ordering a no-line bifocal, but they are terrific!

Crazing across the lenses
April 18, 2022

Glasses fit well, however the lenses have terrible crazing across them from the day they arrived and are basically unusable. Truly a shame.

Thank you for posting your Zenni review of the standard anti-reflective coating you selected for your lenses. We were sorry to read that crazing appeared on the lenses the first day you received the glasses, and we apologize for any dissatisfaction you experienced as a result. Our anti-reflective coatings have a one-year warranty, which starts the day the glasses are delivered. Therefore, we invite you to take a picture or pictures of the crazing on the lenses and email the picture or pictures to us at [email protected]. Please put your order number, o4506680520, in the subject line of the email, and in the body of the email please describe the issue with the anti-reflective coating. If we see the crazing on the lenses, we will offer to remake the glasses for you for free. However, if we cannot see this lens defect in the picture or pictures you email, we will reply to your email with emailed instructions to return the glasses for an inspection, and we will also email you a prepaid mailing label to use for return postage. We look forward to receiving the email with the picture or pictures of the crazing on the lenses, in the hope that then we will be able to resolve this matter to your satisfaction with a remake of the glasses.
