Does it matter where I get my eyeglass lenses from?!


Question: Does it matter where I get my eyeglass lenses from?
My optometrist office takes 5 - 10 days to get me my glasses because they send them off to get the lenses put it. EyeMasters can hand them to me within an hour because they have their own cutting labs.

Is there a difference in quality between having them sent off and getting them from a place like EyeMasters?

The words " Walmart " and "Quality" shouldn't be used in the same sentence to start with.

Walmart Optical doesn't have onsite labs either.

Eyemasters would be a pretty good choice for fast service and the same quality your Dr. would have ordered.

Most likely, I am pretty sure there isn't a difference, unless they just might be way more cleaner. That's about it. Also, it depends if you want like the ones that have the sunglasses transition. Then you would want them from a professional place, other than that, Walmart could be a good place.



Most places it doesn't really matter. If you go to a private doctor expect to pay way more than you should. A lot of those places sell designer glasses and the only thing you're paying for is the name (which isn't really worth it). I had glasses from walmart after my parent's cat broke my old ones; they actually aren't bad if you go for a higher end pair, mine lasted 2 years with everyday wear. Like anything inspect them carefully and look up the brand you like online.

I've had glasses for 12 years.



You can save even more money than Walmart by getting your new prescription lenses at www.replacementlensexpress.com. They are much higher quality too, and they ship in 3 days cause they are based in Connecticut (and not somewhere overseas).

Probably not a great deal of difference apart from the price. Expect to pay a lot more for the same day service...
