I’ve been wearing glasses since High School, and I hate having to buy new ones because they are so freaking expensive, even with vision insurance covering part of the cost. You know that there is no way that it costs one or two hundred dollars to actually make glasses! http://www.ZenniOptical.com is a website that eliminates the high cost by cutting out the “middle man” and selling their own manufactured glasses directly to customers.
The basics are the $ 8 Zenni Optical Rx Eyeglasses, and what I like best about the way the site works is that the description for each pair lists the exact height and width of the lenses, frames, and bridge. By taking a few measurements of your face, you can determine exactly which pair will best suit your face. You fill out your order using a prescription from an eye doctor-most sell glasses, but they must, by law, give you a copy of your prescription. You are never required to buy the glasses the doctor sells!
The site carries a wide variety of frame styles and can even accommodate Bifocals. Shipping is only $4.95 per order, no matter how many glasses you order, so you can buy yourself several pairs in different styles and have a whole wardrobe of glasses, something I’ve always wished I could do. After my next eye exam, I will probably be making a purchase myself.
