Love them more than words and they're super cheap especially for my prescription(I'm blind as a bat) get lots of compliments on them as well
Experience was great from easy order to quick delivery. Cost was phenomenally low so my expectations were not high, but happy to report I was wrong! The glasses were perfect! I've worn glasses for several years now, but these are by far my favorite pair. At a fraction of the cost.
I have ordered a few pairs of glasses recently, and there was confusion on my RX for one of them, and they were immediately on it, contacting me to verify accurate information. I also received my orders reasonably fast. No complaints.
Purchasing easy, variety of glasses to chose from which is a plus and fast shipping. Not so sure about the scratch proof cause my daughter's glasses are already scratched. But over all I really like the glasses.
I had ordered glasses that didn't look like the prescription was correct. I got a full store credit to order new ones
Took a while to understand your web page. Info was helpful.
Am pleased with the glasses I received.
First time I have ordered glasses online. Excellent experience! Will be ordering more soon!
My glasses came in crooked, tight and cause immense pain to my head. I paid a decent amount of money for subpar product.
Glasses were perfect! Happy with the work. Quality is very good. Service did not take an unreasonable amount of time.
The glasses have really nice color. Perfect for my 6 year old. Good for price. Will definitely order more.
Such an easy process. Website works properly! I love that you can take a pic and try on glasses using your picture. Simple and easy to add prescription for purchase. My order arrived in a week although it said 1-2 weeks. Received a follow up email to confirm that I received my order which led me here. Amazing company, amazing process, my son loves his glasses. They are sooo cute!
It was my first time ordering from Zenni and it was so easy to navigate their website, order my glasses. I loved the email updates and delivery was prompt! You won't be disappointed!
As advertised, decent price. I am pleased with my purchase have and will likely order from this site again in the future.
I truly could not be happier with the service and quality. The day our son had his glasses broken from an extra hard bump in school, we got a package. We were at home, the doorbell rings, and the delivery person hands me a Zenni Package! It was one of those amazing moments where everything aligns, your kid is happy, and you feel like an A+ parent!
Thank you Zenni!
Amazing glasses these are my second pair I've ordered because I lost my first ones
Reasonable price for a decent set of glasses. I don't like all the upcharges, but they are upfront about it and considerably cheaper then anything around town.
I've been a Zenni customer a long time. Flawless service and unbeatable prices and selection. Easy to navigate website, too
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.

Thank you for posting your Zenni review of what appears to be the first order you placed with us, order o5089698979, placed on September 26,2020, for one pair of premium progressive eyeglasses.
We were sorry to read that the frame you selected – full-rim, oval cat-eye, acetate, spring-hinged, tortoiseshell frame 4425139 with blue temple arms and a frame width of 137 millimeters – arrived crooked and was too tight to fit you well.
Consequently, we apologize for any dissatisfaction you experienced as a result.
The U.S. Postal Service website advises that this order was delivered to you on October 6,2022, 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 please provide the order number, o5089698979, to the customer service representative who answers.
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 PayPal account you used to pay for the order.
We will email you 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, o5089698979, 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 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.
In addition, since you mention that frame 4425139 did not fit you well, if you select the 100 percent store credit refund and plan to purchase another pair of glasses from us in a frame that will 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 thank you again for posting your review, we hope that this information is helpful, and we look forward to hearing back from you with your refund choice.
