As the title asks. I have an up to date prescription, where’s the best place to order from?
I’m from Japan!
Online glasses shopping is pretty common here too, and I’ve personally used Zoff (https://www.zoff.co.jp/) — they’re affordable, have lots of frame styles, and let you enter your prescription online. They also have a virtual try-on feature on their website, so you can see how the glasses look on your face before buying. Shipping within Japan is fast and reliable.
Another unique option in Japan is Shitsuji Megane eyemirror (https://ec.eyemirror.jp/ ), which translates to “Butler Glasses.” They’re known for collaborating with anime and VTuber franchises, so it’s especially popular among fans of Japanese pop culture. Some of their designs are themed around specific characters or series — very Japan!

I like Warby Parker. They’re pricey compared to the other websites mentioned here, but I love the styles. You can order a home try-on kit for free before making a purchase.
The try-on kit was very helpful!
When asking about buying stuff, please include what country you currently live in.
Just reply with information from whichever country you’re in, or any random one.
He’s most likely 'Murican, because they’re the only dumb and self-centered enough bunch to think everything and everyone revolves around them.
Quite right, any country will do - that way the post is useful to more people than just me!
I’m not American, I just live somewhere where literally everything is international to me, so it doesn’t matter if it comes from Timbuktu.
Prescriptions are very country dependent, and most stores will not ship internationally. You should still inform your country.
Zenni. I’ve got dozens of glasses from them. Every year if I’ve got money leftover in my health flex spending account I buy glasses. Fashion tint, sunglasses, just for fun, etc. It’s never a waste.
My answer is Zenni, but I don’t know what the tariffs will do.
What’s your location? I usually buy from ExtraOptical, happy with them.
eyebuydirect.com has always treated me well.
I used to love eyebuydirect, especially the replacement warranty. But their quality is lower and needs the warranty while Zenni is less expensive for higher quality 😁
Good to know. Next time I’ll check out ZENNI.
I’ll second Zenni, been ordering from them for 10+ years.
Never used it, but https://www.specsavers.co.uk/glasses says it has online ordering.
Prices are ridiculous though. I mean I got my last set from there because they had an offer to get prescription sun glasses too, but in the past I’ve just searched cheap glasses online and had some for 10% the cost at the high street.
Quality isn’t as great as say designer frames which I have now, but also I seem to keep wearing my cheap ones as they’re more comfortable for my head.
Zeelool has some more left field choices if you’re into that. Otherwise I second eyebuydirect
- Select.
- Order.
Can I interest you in contacts instead?
