Woo-Hoo!! Got my new glasses from Zenni!

**FrugalWitch** · 04-19-2008, 01:16 PM

The morning mail contained my package from ZenniOptical.com Both pairs of my new glasses are just beautiful, these glasses do not look cheap at all! Momma and DH actually thought the two new pairs looked better than my one expensive ($250) pair that I bought a few years back.

Both pairs have the additional anti-glare coating and one has the additional 80% grey sunglass tint. They fit perfectly, the prescriptions are correct, just all around flawless. Both pairs with shipping and handling were $34.80.

DH is going for his eye exam on May 6th and will be ordering 2 pairs and I think I'll buy an extra everyday pair as well.

I highly recommend zennioptical.com to anyone who needs glasses. Many Blessings to the person who first mentioned the website, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

(PS) I ordered mine on April 8th and they arrived this morning, much quicker than I expected.

Thanks for sharing your experience! I just checked out the site and I will be ready for new glasses soon and I will be checking the site out. It's good to hear that you are satisfied with the order.

Thanks for the review. My DD is going to need glasses soon and I'll encourage her to check out that site.

How do you get them fitted? That's the only thing making me apprehensive...

**staciah** · 04-19-2008, 06:50 PM

How did you get all the info required?

OD-Right OD-SPH
OD-CYL
OD-AXIS
OD-ADD

OS-Left OS-SPH
OS-CYL
OS-AXIS
OS-ADD

PD-Pupillary Distance
Prescription & Lens Type
Prescription Strength
Standard Strength

If your Eye Doc gave it to you, that suprises me.

I went to America's Best for the eye exam only. They will give you your prescription, you just use the prescription to fill-in-the-blanks at Zenni. If you're paying for an eye exam any place you go should give you a copy of your prescription.

As for fitting, mine didn't need any additional adjustments. To pick out the right size frame I just sat down and took measurements (metric...you need mm) from two of my old pairs and then matched up sizes as closely as possible.

HTH!

That is helpful.
The only thing I could see is if one of my kids, who don't currently wear glasses, should need them I wouldn't be able to do that. Or my kids who do have glasses..because their heads grow

staciah, your eye doctor should give you a copy of your eyeglasses prescription if you ask. If they don't, I do believe that's illegal. It's like a doctor or hospital refusing to give you a prescription for meds unless you buy it from them.

Yay! I LOVE Zenni optical and suggest them to everyone. I'm glad you liked yours, I was also so surprised that they didn't look like they cost any less than the ones at Walmart or JC Penny.
