6 Reasons You’ll Get Your Glasses Online From Now On

Nobody buys glasses at the optometrist anymore.  You can get a lot more online for the same money.  Here are the reasons why.

1. Selection

They have everything online.  At a brick and mortar store they’re limited by space and by which vendors they work with.  Online, you have a zillion styles and colors and you can choose from, and the quality is virtually the same, you’re just skipping the middle man.  You can even search through the selection by frame shape, material, designer brand, size, price, even measurement.

2. The Virtual Try-on Feature

Wondering what the frames will look like with your face shape?  You Can upload a photo of you and “try on” every pair on the site.  You can also order several pairs and try them in person, the online return policy is awesome.  Just see reason 3.

3. Great Return Policy

Oh you didn’t like the 3rd, 4th and 8th pair you ordered?  Just send them back.  Most online sites have a 100% hassle free return policy.  If you tried that at your optometrist’s office they will more than likely laugh in your face.

These glasses say: “you don’t know me, but I look at art, like all the time”

4. No Sticker Shock

Why are the prices in stores so hard to find?  Because if you see the price up front, you might make a rational decision instead of falling for something that is way out of your budget.  There’s no sticker shock online.  Everything is clearly labeled, what you see is what you pay.

5. No F@*#ing Hassle

Yeah, no sales people.  Online you don’t have to be worried that you’re wasting the sales person’s time by browsing 100 different styles, there’s no line of customers behind you tapping their watches, there are no external pressures to buy, you can take all the time you need.
