I love my new glasses. First time ordering. Very easy. Received them quickly. Inexpensive. Love the lightweight frame. Will order again
Great pair of glasses. Easy to order and love how you can try on any pair with the virtual try on.
Used this company for years, never had any issues. Always fit well and can see well.
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.
Forever loyal customer, new plastic pair. They rock
I love that my glasses were produced and delivered fast while still being of high quality and retaining a low cost.
I received my order. Thanks for all you did to get them to me
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.
All I got was my frame with impossible to see lenses
I love my new glasses! Super affordable and quick delivery. This is my second pair of Zenni eyeglasses and I have been very happy both times!
I am very happy with my order. Thank you very much for all the help!
Awesome glasses excellent quality as usual. I really appreciate you guys for providing a wonderful product to the visually challenged.
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.
I'm always satisfied with Zenni! The delivery window and process, the final product, all of it. This delivery was no exception!
The online experience, shipping speed, price and final product is amazing! These glasses are perfect, I literally saved hundreds of dollars and I plan to order again and again until I have a different frame for every mood!
My prescription was perfect and the glasses fit great!
High-quality glasses. Good price, and fast shipping. I would highly recommend
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.
