  • "Wow!!"
    Quality 5.0 Style 5.0 Fit 5.0

    The picture does not do it justice. Way better than I hoped for. Very light and cool looking. Once again, eyebuydirect hits a home run.

  • "Perfect fit & style"

    I went all out on these - got the transitions lenses, higher indexing, etc. Best glasses I’ve bought in the last 10 years, and about 1/3 the price of the last pair I bought at a national retail chain.

  • "Stunning"

    When I opened the little box, & took my brand new glasses out of the cleaning-cloth-case-duo (awesome!!), I almost cried. These glasses are beautiful, I can look at the headlights of other cars without squinting, I can look across the room without adjusting the angle of my view, I can look directly into the sky with complete, crystal clear clarity. The frames have weight to them (so they won't slide down my nose), but are feather light on my face at the same time. I predict the acetate will hold up far better than typical plastic. These frames compliment my heart shaped face the best that a pair of glasses could, in my opinion. If you're on the fence about either these particular frames, or about Eye Buy Direct's prescription accuracy, or anything else... I say, go for it.
