Excellent experience with Zenni! Easy to use website, fast shipping and excellent quality! I will definitely be using Zenni again!
New glasses love them They didn't take long to get and they were a good price
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.
Easy and quick delivery. Much quicker than anticipated
I love Zenni optical! Style and prices are awesome!
Very good! Easy to navigate through the required order details. Have ordered multiple times with zenni.
This was my first time ordering glasses online and I absolutely love them!
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.
I've been buying from Zenni for years and this particular frames I love the most
The glasses we ordered were affordable and came exactly as described.
Great experience with Zenni as always. Really love these new glasses. I have received so many compliments. Zenni is my home for glasses forever!
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!
Glasses fit well, however the lenses have terrible crazing across them from the day they arrived and are basically unusable. Truly a shame.
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. 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.
