Question:
Has anyone had any luck with online Rx glasses?
I just got my Rx. It hasn't changed in 30 years.Would any of these online eyeglasses stores be an option? The prices are so much less. Anyone have good luck? Or are they all made in China of inferior materials and child labor?
Answers:
As I once worked in an optical lab and knew the markup on eyeglasses was outrageous, I refused to purchase any eyeglasses from doctors or opticians.. When I worked at the optical lab I was getting them for cost.
For the average pair of single vision eyeglasses we were billing the doctor or optician under $25.00, they would then mark them up over 500%. Bifocals were even higher.
In April of this year I decided to give the online Rx eyeglasses a try. I purchased the least expensive single vision Rx glasses just to give them a try. I am delighted with them. The service was great and I received my glasses in a very short time.
The online site I used is eyebuydirect.com
