Meanwhile, I go to ZenniOptical, find a functional pair for $10, and buy eight copies. Never worry about glasses again. Keep a pair in the car, at work, in my luggage, and let them diffuse around the house.
- umeshunni 6mo agoI did that for my reading glasses, but for shortsightedness, especially as an astigmatic, I find it hard to buy glasses or frames without actually wearing them. Curious what your strategy is.
- reverius42 6mo agoThey're cheap enough on Zenni that you can just try a pair. I have astigmatism and got lucky after a couple pairs on Zenni -- now I just reorder the same frames with a new prescription knowing I'll get something that works well.
- hazbot 6mo agoThankyou, this is the comment I came here for - advice on alternatives!
- JoeBOFH 6mo agoWife and I have been using Zenni for years. She loves being able to swap out glasses every year or so without breaking the bank. Also my glasses at a normal place are 800-1200 while at Zenni they are barely 120.
- rcbdev 6mo ago> 800 - 1200 What the fuck? Is this normal in the U.S.A.?
- DowsingSpoon 6mo agoNo, not really. I bought an $800 pair of designer sunglasses a couple of times, but usually, good frames are only a few hundred bucks.
- cbull 6mo ago"only" a few hundred bucks for just frames? That seems ridiculous for what you are getting.

- olivierroy 6mo agoAnother good option in Europe is Firmoo. They have very similar pricing.
