Would You Order Eyeglasses off the Net?

I WOULD!   Awhile back I did a post on GlassesUSA.com where my daughter got glasses.  I was extremely skeptical because let’s face it… ordering glasses over the internet?  Really?  Isn’t that risky?  Apparently not because they were really nice and great quality.

Well, it was shortly before she had to go off to college and realized she needed a new supply of contacts.  I called her eye doctor locally and was informed she needed a new script.  Which of course meant a new exam.  There was no way that we’d get in before she left.  Ughhhh.  So we found a new eye doctor who took her in a flash.  Not only did her glasses prescription change dramatically, so did her contacts.

When we were shopping in that store to buy eyeglasses I was shocked at the price.  (and, they were cheaper than the former place we went to!)  We were looking at the pairs they had that were complete pairs for $99.  and wow, what a bunch of crap.  That price didn’t include the scratch coating or the better lens (these had pop bottle lenses!)

The girl there took her old glasses from GlassesUSA and looked at them.  She said, “These are really good glasses”.  I said, “really?  we ordered these eye glasses online for like $70!”  She said, “You won’t get anything like these here — not for that price.  Look, see it has the better glass, a great frame, the scratch resistance and {something for night time driving I can’t remember the term}”.

Anyhow, we ended up with a few hundred dollars in new glasses because we needed them pronto and had to do the new exam and everything quickly before she left for college.  But after that dent in my wallet, I’ll be only buy glasses online.   I am just stunned that they were such great glasses, that even a brick and mortar optometrist would say they were.
