I love my new glasses. They fit just find no adjustments needed.Eveything about the glasses I'm in love.I ordered twice.I will look forward to buying another pair soon.
I like my new look. Glad I bought them. A great bargain, too. Thanks.
Easy to order, good price and look great. Very happy
Zenni has always been there for me in hard times, when things seem blurry on my day and I feel comfortable knowing I can count on then to save me. One of a kind company. Awesome team.
I have always been happy with zenni but these glasses are so cheap and flimsy. Also they completely fall off my face. Unfortunately I can't afford another pair.
I enjoyed the whole experience from picking the glasses online to getting them directly in the mail. The size and for were great and now I can finally see clearly! Will be buying another pair!
I've had good luck with this company, great price and product is as described. I will use them again.
I ordered these same frames for a second time since I liked them so much. The first ones broke but after four years of use!
Great pair, perfect for my face shape and fits my style
Easy to order and fast delivery. Thoroughly satisfied with my new specs.
Super easy! This is our third time buying the same awesome blue glasses for my son… He's very rough on his glasses, but it's easy to order a new pair and shipment is fast!
Faster than expected shipping and high quality craftsmanship. I will definitely order extra pairs.
I needed computer glasses for work. A couple of friends suggested Zenni. I found something great for a ridiculously low price.
I ordered one of Zenni's basic pair of glasses. Cost me less than $20. I LOVE them. They're quality, they're clear. The only problem was I sent them my long distance prescription - now I need to order reading glasses - they'll definitely be Zenni's!
Excellent. The whole experience was excellent. Web site is easy to use and friendly. I called to customer service and also, they were very helpful and knowledge.
Service is always so fast, when I order my glasses from Zenni! Their selection is amazing, and prices are even better! I used to pay 3x as much for a complete pair from another company, but now I can enjoy seeing clearly with a larger personal collection of eyeglasses!
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.

Since the frame did not work out for you, 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, and we look forward to hearing back from you, in the hope that we may resolve this matter to your satisfaction with one of our two refund options.
We also hope that you have a very happy holiday season!
