I had written a review on Zenni Optical over a year ago but it was a paid post. But a couple of weeks ago, I actually tried Zenni Optical after doing some research and they are AWESOME!

Zenni Optical offer full prescription glasses with frame and high index lenses as low as $8.00. We are not talking just any pair of glasses. Again, this is NOT a paid post!

I wear corrective lenses because my eye prescription is so bad. We are talking -5.75. So, I need the higher index lenses or polycarbonate lenses. Both my daughter and I have been in need of some glasses. She lost hers as soon as we had gotten them from the eye doctor the first time around. Now, since she need another pair I was going to have to pay fully out of pocket. It would be another two years before I can get glasses on my insurance. Even with insurance, I could save money going through an alternative route. So, when I was checking the prices of glasses around my area optical mart, I thought that I would also try Zenni Optical online.

I place an Order on November 2nd for my daughter. I figured I could buy her some $8 glasses. $8, that was much to lose just incase they were not to my likings, right?  Anyways, I received notice on November 10th they were being shipped. The next day was postal holiday it was on to see how long  it would take to find out what there services and products were like from Zenni Optical. Well, that Friday on November 13th is when I received the glasses in the mail.

I was very impressed. It comes with a cleaning cloth and hard case. They were exactly the same as the $250 pair of glasses that I purchased from the eye doctor. After insurance was applied I still paid $100. But with Zenni, I paid $8 for the frames w/ lenses and $4.95 shipping.

So, on November 10th. I ordered me a pair. Being that my eye sight is so much worse than my daughters, I spent the extra $17 to get extra thin lenses. The standard lenses for Zenni is 1.57 Index Lenses. This is a thin light and high quality lense. The frames they have available are all high quality stylish frames.  Each pair of glasses come with anti scratch coating, full UV protection, lens edge polishing and beveling, quality hard case, microfiber cleaning cloth and a full guarantee. 

I will let you know how I come out with the higher index lenses since my prescription is stronger. But if you need glasses, Zenni is the way to go!

Now for $8, that’s unheard of! Let’s break it down….

Savings $ 60.05 with insurance and saving with out insurance $190.05

 You do the math!!

 All you need to order online is the prescription from your eye doctor. Pick out your frames, key it in, add it to the cart process the payment and you are done. The great thing is, you can order 10 pair of glasses and pay one $4.95 shipping charge. The shipping charge is one flat rate per order so it doesn’t matter how many pair you order. That’s wonderful!

I did my research before I ordered the glasses. I found a discussion board that became active in 2003 talking about Zenni Optical, with over 700 threads. I am surprise Zenni is not more popular that what its is. So this is my new thing!

TaWana

As always, Peace, Love & STILETTOS!!!!
