I like Warby Parker as PPs have mentioned because of the convenience: I like being able to get them easily adjusted, and it was so easy to return a pair that was causing me vertigo.

Isn’t that expensive surgery?

Yes, Zenni, but you need your pupil distance. Last place you bought glasses will have. Zenni is so cheap, I buy 3 pairs, ok if I only like one.

You need your pupillary distance for WP too. I just bought a couple pairs back in February and they called me to say my rx was missing it and to go into one of their stores so I could get measured and they'd update my order.

There are free apps that help you with the pupil distance- I use GlassesOn

Have bought through lots of different online places (had a rambunctious child who went through 19 pairs in one year - those $20 guarantees from the eye glass stores will fix them exactly one time), and have come to the conclusion that expensive glasses/frames are a complete ripoff. Our entire family now buys glasses and sunglasses online

Hmm, maybe I got mine on a sale or special at WP, but my prescription sunglasses were $99 there (vs the prescription regular glasses I got there that started at the $99 base but cost extra to get the lenses “thinned” and blue light blocker added (altho even those were still a better price than what I had been paying at My Eye Dr).

Just do what I did and get elective cataract surgery. While I need reading glasses now but distance vision is 20/15. No need for any glasses. Saving tens of thousands in the second half of my life.

I liked the look of mine but I think the frame size just wasn't the best fit for my face.

I know you are asking about the sunglasses in particular but I think Warby Parker is v convenient and good value for my eye care so much so that I forgo vision insurance with my FEHB plan.

I need both reading glasses and distance eye correction (I wear contacts daily). I see the optician at my local Warby Parker every 18 months to 2 years and own 2 pairs of their glasses, which I like. Their contact lens prices are competitive but they are also make it easy to access your RX in your online account so if you want to shop elsewhere you can.

I have had many pairs of prescription sunglasses from WP and been pleased. My last couple of prescriptions are progressives, which I understand to be harder to do in sunglasses, and they’ve also been good. And you have a 30 day window to return them.

I had a pair of WP prescription sunglasses for 15 years. They were great. I have recent pairs of regular prescription glasses and they still hold up well (those OG WB were a bit nicer).

I sadly lost them.

I have had good luck at Costco optical and The Framery (1800contacts).

I bought a pair of Zenni and had motion sickness from how bad the prescription was applied. But that was a decade ago, and PP likes them? Most glasses are made in China so they could all be using same contract manufacturer.

I love my sunglasses from there. I drop them all the time and have no scratches.

I like Warby Parker for regular glasses, but I also get sunglasses from a cheap place. They get less use and I'm more likely to break or lose them. I also care less how they look. My glasses are, essentially, what my face looks like to other people. My sunglasses aren't.

Have to get prescription sunglasses. They are more expensive than regular glasses at WP (and extra $100 for the sunglass tinting). I could order glasses on line for less, but am worried about not trying on frames/getting them fitted and how complicated they would be about returning them if they do not fit. Is it worth paying more for the WP ones?
