A bit pricier than the other options listed in this thread but I'm really happy with my glasses from warby Parker. I like having an in person store to try on frames and the customer service is pretty great
Ditto. I used Zenni for a few pairs but the frame quality is noticeably better on my Warby pairs. That said, I have a very high prescription, and Zenni did a better job on a lightweight high-index pair of prescription sunglasses than Warby did. The highest index sunglass option from Warby Parker still came out fairly hefty.
I keep meaning to take a look into Warby Parker. Them having physical stores is just so much less risky with a strong prescription.
Edit: Never mind...for my prescription, Warby is basically the same price as the optometrist. Did they go up in price recently? I don't remember that being the case prior.
