This was my second pair. I needed something strictly for Work, and I absolutely love having a backup pair of eye glasses, as I have been known to have, the worse luck ever. My Zenni experience has been great!

Thank you for posting your Zenni review of the most recent order you placed with us, order o5178715990, placed on November 5,2022, for one pair of single-vision eyeglasses with our Blokz® blue-light-blocking feature.

We were sorry to read that the frame you selected – full-rim, square, acetate, translucent frame 662916, with a frame width of 132 millimeters – did not fit you well.

Consequently, we apologize for any disappointment you experienced as a result.

The U.S. Postal Service website advises that this order was delivered to you on November 12,2022, which means that it is within its 30-day warranty period, which starts the day the glasses are delivered.

Therefore, you may return these eyeglasses to us for one of our two refund options – either a 100 percent refund of the price of the glasses in the form of store credit to your Zenni account or a 50 percent refund to the credit card you used to pay for the glasses.

If you would like to pursue returning these eyeglasses for one of these refunds, we invite you to telephone Zenni Customer Service, at 1-800-211-2105 and anyone who answers will be eager to assist you when you provide the order number, o5178715990.

We will email you the instructions to return the glasses for the refund option you select, and we will also email you a prepaid mailing label to use for return postage.

If the wait to speak with a customer service representative is lengthy, you may have an online Chat with us by clicking the button labeled Support, at the lower right-hand corner of every page of the Zenni website.

You may also email us, at [email protected], and if you choose this communication method, please put your order number, o5178715990, in the subject line of the email and in the body of the email please advise of the refund option you prefer.

We will email you the instructions to return the glasses for the refund option you select, and we will also email you a prepaid mailing label to use for return postage.

We see that on your previous order, o511939280, placed on September 18,2022, you selected two frames: full-rim, square, mixed-material, tortoiseshell-and-coral ombre frame 7813125, with a frame width of 137 mm; and full-rim, square, acetate, spring-hinged, multicolor sea glass frame 4427139, with a frame width of 140 mm.

Since the most recent pair of eyeglasses you ordered did not fit you well, we want to recommend the information we provide in an infographic found toward the middle of the bottom of every page of our website, How to Measure Your Frame Size: https://www.zennioptical.com/measure-eyeglass-frame-size-how-to.

This infographic explains how to measure the dimensions of each element of a pair of eyeglasses you have now that fits you well and looks good on your face, so that you may shop for a frame on our website with similar dimensions, which can be seen under the enlarged picture of the frame on our website, under Details, or on the enlarged picture of a frame on our website, if you click on the little ruler icon toward the lower left side of the enlarged picture.

It does not have to be an exact match. You have a 2-mm leeway on each element of an eyeglasses frame, with a 3-4 mm leeway on the temple arms. We also have information in our Help Center that is very useful for determining the frame size you need for a frame to fit you well: https://help.zennioptical.com/hc/en-us/articles/360049904633-How-Do-I-Find-My-Frame-Size-.

In addition, here is a link to another infographic found toward the middle of the bottom of every page of our website, Best Eyeglasses For Your Face Shape: https://www.zennioptical.com/best-eyeglasses-for-your-face-shape.

We hope that this information is helpful, we hope to hear back from you with your refund choice, and we also hope that you have a very happy holiday season!

I ordered 2 pairs of glasses for my daughter with no prescription. They were to small. They only offer you 100% store credit or 50% back to your original payment mention. Not worth the money.

My vision is wonky...
December 9, 2022

I don't know that there's anything wrong with the glasses that I was sent, but I am checking with my doctor to see if there's something wrong with my prescription. Everything in the distance looks Crystal clear, but anything within 8 to 10 feet of me looks very distorted.
