I purchase the kids frame and prescription lens for my son. The glasses came within a week and it fit my son perfectly. I really like how they look on him and he says they feel great. Will definitely purchase future glasses from zenni.

Great product
October 18, 2022

The glasses took a little longer to come but my children were happy with them. They fit, the style was right and they could see. I'm so glad they used the virtual view for the glasses. I would definitely use again and recommend my friends.

Thank you for posting your review of the eyeglasses from your most recent order, o5089557943, placed on September 26,2022.

We were sorry to read that you could not see well with these single-vision eyeglasses with our Blokz® blue-light-blocking feature, in full-rim, rectangular, flexible-plastic, translucent fog-colored frame 2032212, with a frame width of 150 millimeters.

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

We also see that the prescription and PD you used for this order are the same as those items entered for the two pairs of eyeglasses on your December 30,2021, order, o4412796334.

We see no notes in the database record of order o4412796334 indicating you contacted us about any vision issues you experienced with these glasses.

The U.S. Postal Service website advises that order o5089557943 was delivered to you on October 3,2022, 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, o5089557943.

Please have a copy of the prescription you used to place the order handy when you call, because the customer service representative will ask you to email a picture of the prescription to them, to confirm that it was entered correctly.

If the 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.

But if it turns out that something was entered incorrectly on the order, we will email you instructions to return the glasses 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 order.

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, o5089557943, 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 instructions to return the glasses 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 order.

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.

Nose guard

I have excellent experience with Zenni! Only wish they would put nose guards on the glasses. Keep them from falling down my face

Thank you for posting your Zenni review of what appears to be the first order you placed with us, order o5087395671, placed on September 25,2022, for one pair of single-vision eyeglasses.

We were happy to read that you are pleased with your experience ordering eyeglasses from us.

However, we were sorry to read that the frame you selected – full-rim, square, plastic, black frame 228421, with a frame width of 144 millimeters and a bridge of 17 mm – slides down your face.

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

We want to advise that if you click on Accessories, under the column headed SHOP BY CATEGORIES, found toward the bottom left side of every page of the Zenni website, you may order one pair of Adhesive Nose Pads for $1.95.

However, if the frame slides down your face because the 17-mm-wide bridge is too wide, you may adjust the eyeglasses frame to improve the fit, using the instructions found toward the middle of the bottom of every page of the Zenni website, How to Adjust Your Glasses: https://www.zennioptical.com/how-to-adjust-your-eyeglasses.

In addition, for more information about how to order 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, and we hope that this information is helpful.
