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.

We were sorry to read that the prescription seems off, and we apologize for any disappointment you experienced as a result.
The U.S. Postal Service advises that the order was delivered to you on December 1,2022, which means that it is within its 30-day warranty period, which starts the day the glasses are delivered.
Therefore, we invite you to telephone Zenni Customer Service, at 1-800-211-2105, and anyone will be happy to assist you when you provide the order number, o2558552456.
Please have a copy of the prescription you used to place the order handy when you call, because the customer service representative who answers will ask you to email the prescription to them, to confirm that it was entered correctly.
If the pupillary distance (PD) is not on the prescription, please advise how it was obtained – self-measurement, friend or family member measurement, or eye doctor measurement.
If you confirm that you entered the prescription and PD correctly, we will email you instructions to return the glasses to us for an inspection, and we will also email you a prepaid mailing label to use for return postage.
If our inspection finds any manufacturing errors on the glasses, we will offer to remake them for you for free.
However, if it turns out that something was entered incorrectly on the order, we will email you instructions to return the glasses for the refund option available for an order paid for partially with store credit and partially with funds from an Apple Pay account – a 50 percent refund to the Apple Pay account of the amount of store credit that was used to pay for the order and a 100 percent refund in the form of store credit of the amount of Apple Pay funds you used to pay for the order, minus the $4.95 Standard shipping fee, which we do not refund in a situation such as this.
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, o2558552456, in the subject line of the email and please attach a copy of the prescription to the email.
If the PD is not on the prescription, please advise in the body of the email how it was obtained – self-measurement, friend or family member measurement, or eye doctor measurement.
If you confirm that you entered the prescription and PD correctly, we will email you instructions to return the glasses to us for an inspection, and we will also email you the prepaid mailing label to use for return postage.
But if it turns out that something was entered incorrectly on the order, we will email you the instructions to return the glasses for the refund option available for an order paid for partially with store credit and partially with funds from an Apple Pay account.
We will also email you the prepaid shipping label to use for return postage.
We look forward to hearing back from you, in the hope that we may resolve this matter to your satisfaction, with an inspection or one of our two refund options.
