Repeat Customer

Between my daughter and myself, we have ordered around 5 pairs of glasses through Zenni. It has been such a positive experience, and it has saved me so much money.

Good glasses and customer service
September 1, 2022

I had a lot of trouble with getting my order. First the prescription was wrong (my error), customer service was extremely helpful with getting it corrected. However USPS failed to deliver my reorder and apparently lost the glasses. Customer service came in again to help by making a 3rd pair and sending it out again, which I finally received. The fit and lenses are great and I'm so happy to finally have the order fulfilled.

Prompt and correct as always!
September 1, 2022

I've been a Zenni customer for at least 10 years and have ordered glasses for the whole family. Quality and service are good, and the affordability gives me the option to have several pairs of glasses. Best online glasses I've found.

Check the BBB. If you just want a cheapo set of single vision glasses, great. If you want to be able to see out of them... not so much. They used to have good quality control and sent you your actual prescription. Now it is a 50/50 on if you will be able to see, and a $50%/$50% on who pays if u can't.

Thank you for posting your Zenni review of your most recent order for mid-range workspace progressive eyeglasses.

As we stated in our response to your Better Business Bureau complaint, we were sorry to read that you cannot see as well with these eyeglasses as you can with the pair in the same prescription and same prescription type that you ordered in May 2021.

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

These mid-range workspace progressive glasses were delivered to you on August 13,2022, according to the U.S. Postal Service website.

This means that your order 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 your order number, o4140343937, to the customer service representative who answers.

Please advise that you cannot see objects past three feet away, which is the vision distance provided by near-range workspace progressive eyeglasses, whereas mid-range workspace progressive eyeglasses should provide good vision up to at least 10 feet away.

When you confirm that you entered the prescription and pupillary distance (PD) the same way as you did on your May 5,2021, order, o3783539386, and advise that you would like to return these eyeglasses to us for an inspection, the customer service representative will email you instructions to return the glasses to us for an inspection, and they will also email you a prepaid mailing label to use for return postage.

When we have received and inspected the glasses, we will email you the inspection results. If we find any manufacturing errors on the glasses, we will offer to remake them for you for free. If we find no manufacturing errors on the glasses, we can return them to you or offer you 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, o4140343937, in the subject line of the email, and in the body of the email please advise that you would like emailed instructions to return the glasses for an inspection. We will email you the return-for-inspection instructions and the prepaid mailing label.

We very much hope to hear back from you, so that we may receive the glasses for an inspection, which we hope will lead to a successful resolution of this matter.

Great Value
August 31, 2022

Once I got all my measurements, just picked my frames and received 2 great pairs of glasses.
Now I'm ordering more, because they are light weight, fit great and are so economical. I able to order some extras to have around in case my dog eats another pair! She has gotten 4 pair so far, Thank goodness for Zenni!

My 8 year old is thrilled
August 31, 2022

She received her purple glasses right on time. She loves them and is very happy with the Blue Bolkz I had put on there because her school uses chromebooks most of the time. I definitely recommend Zenni to everyone I know. These glasses are high quality without the high price.
