When it comes to shopping for my prescription frames I know that I am super lucky because my husband’s company offers a very generous eye plan. Many plans barely cover the cost of the frames let alone a complicated prescription.
So when I was asked by the people over at GlassesUSA.com to check out their site and take it for a test drive I thought why not? They have a 110% lowest price guarantee and unlike some low cost eyewear providers they carry name brands not their own brand. Brands include Kenneth Cole, Spy, Perry Ellis, and See Line Woody frames.
They sell both prescription and regular frames, sunglasses even; needless to say I found a bunch of styles I liked right away.

There are glasses to suit everyone’s tastes from geek chic vintage styles with thicker plastic frames, to sleeker rimless frames. Sunglasses run the gamut from sporty styles to fashion frames and all (or nearly so) can be made into prescription.
Aside from shopping different styles you can also shop the deals of the week which allows you to snap up fun frames at a discount. You can also buy glasses using the latest sales & coupons.
Not sure about shopping for prescription glasses via the internet? GlassesUSA.com has a cool feature where you can virtually try on the frames so you can make sure they fit your face ahead of time (go ahead and try it out below!!). Also there is free shipping internationally (over $99) and a 30 day money back guarantee. It is basically risk free shopping.
I was given a chance to shop the site for this post. I found the website fairly easy to use. I screwed up during checkout which made it not possible for me to use paypal properly (made sure you put your address in first), but otherwise super easy. The glasses also shipped super fast. In fact I got a shipping notice from DHL on my door before I had even got a “Your package shipped” email from the company.
One thing you need to remember before you shop for eyeglasses online; have your prescription before you shop. That way if you are getting prescription lenses you are ready to go when you sit down to your computer. I guess there is nothing wrong with preshopping but if your heart is set on a particular pair and you can’t actually place your order for a few weeks you might miss out.
