Fits great looks great and I received them in under two weeks
Love my frames, they are cute and the best part is being able to afford prescription sunglasses.
Very good customer service because my first pair of sunglasses was made incorrectly and they were very prompt and respectful on the return process. I was given a full store credit so I decided to order a different frame with smaller lenses for the next go round. The redo of the prescription was much faster on the new frames and got them in less than a week. The new progressive sunglasses frame and prescription came back excellent 2nd time around with perfect clarity from top to bottom.
My glasses arrived sooner than expected and fit well. I very much appreciated the affordability of the frames coupled with the detailed lens ordering process.
The usps lost my package. Fortunately Zenni Optical was resposible to remake my order and send it again
Love my new frames and they were in my budget, my son wears glass too and this is the best place to get reasonable prices and to see a happy face on my son.
Love ordering my glasses at Zenni. Great customer service, great products and great prices.
I've used Zenni over a decade now & will continue to do so! Description & lenses have always been point on! And the prices are phenomenal! I have referred to adult friends & family for them & their children with only great reviews & a ty!
The glasses over all were fine, however the end of the frames on one side came off when I had a floaty attached and it was removed, it exposed a bare wire at the end which was a poking hazard.
Also, because they taper to a point the floaty kept slipping off and ended up falling in the ocean when I leaned over when we were moving and I lost my glasses! Frame not recommended if you use a floaty, but likely just fine if you do not slide anything tubular over the ends for floatation.
Exactly what I wanted and came early. I never go anywhere but Zenni for flashes.
Very nice set of glasses, cost was reasonable. Been wearing it everyday for work. Can't beat the value and quality of Zenni.
On-time. Fits great. Love the glasses. I always recommend Zenni to everyone.
Excellent. A BIG "10" Nothing else to say! They are excellent with service, speed and quality. Havent had a bad experience yet! This was my 4th time
Not a big fan of the red arms. Didn't notice that at first.
I really like them. They're comfy and what not also, I'd buy another pair but without the tint
Fast and efficient replacement of a broken pair of glasses. Thanks!
Ordering was great but IO am unable to use these glasses.
Ordering was very easy. The only hard time I had was picking out what glasses I wanted! My glasses are perfect and SO comfortable.
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.
