Affordable Glasses to Keep You Seeing Clearly

I love my affordable glasses that I got from the website Eye Buy Direct.

Personally, I love having an everyday accessory that I can have on me at all times.

I do have contacts but I am not always about that life in the morning so I tend to just put my glasses on.

When I got my checkup this past year I needed a new prescription and I also needed new lenses.

How to Order Your Lenses Outside Your Optometrists Office

To obtain your new pair of prescription lenses you’ll need to see your optometrist.

From there, if your prescription is changed they usually have someone who goes over what your insurance covers for lenses, frames, and contacts.

I opted to buy my contacts from my optometrist directly and my new prescription lenses through a third party.

In order to get to that step, you’ll need to communicate to your optometrist that you’ll need a printed prescription so that you can buy your glasses elsewhere.

It really is that easy.

Finding a Third Party Site – Affordable Glasses

Previously, I went through a website that is no longer in business, so this time I was kind of taken aback.

I was told of Zenni but really felt like Eye Buy Direct was more my style when looking for quality affordable glasses.

I am so happy I went with Eye Buy Direct after perusing their reviews and their options for lenses.

Picking Your Lenses

Purchasing glasses online can be a bit daunting.

You want to make sure you’re going to love what you buy and it is scary to not be able to try things on until they arrive.

My advice?

Buy two pairs.

Buy one pair that is a similar shape to a pair that you already have or know works well with your face.

Next, buy a pair that makes you excited.

That way, when the order arrives you know you have at least one pair that you love and can send the other pair back if needed.

My Current Upgrades

I went for the Octave lens in rose gold and I get so many compliments on them.

These are absolutely my dream frames and I am so happy with them.

For my safe pair of glasses frame I went with the November.

I am really happy with my frames and cannot recommend Eye Buy Direct enough.
