Cheap for what you get

The lenses for my reading glasses came to about a third of what the high street wanted, and the anti scratch coating looks as good as the day they arrived. Took about a week. Nothing to grumble about for the money.

Been using them for years

These are the best online glasses I've tried and I've been ordering here since before they had the app. My prescription has changed twice and I've always got a pair that works. Price has crept up a bit over the years but it's still well under the high street.

Needed reading glasses for close work

I needed a pair for reading the small print on my bank letters and the cheaper ones from the chemist were giving me headaches. Ordered a pair here with a basic prescription and they're fine for what I use them for. The frames sit a bit wider than I'd like and I had to ask the team to adjust the arms, which took a few days to sort out.

Better than the usual online option

This one came out ahead of the usual online option I tried before. I compared a few sites first and the frames looked better in the photos than the cheaper ones did. The reply to my question took a day, which was slower than I'd like, but the glasses arrived fine and the price is good for what you get.

took ages to sort a problem

I've bought from here a good few times over the years but this last order was a real disappointment. The glasses arrived with the lenses not matching my prescription and I had to send them back. Getting the replacement sorted took over three weeks and I had to chase them by email twice before anything moved.

First pair of progressives and they're spot on

Bought a pair of progressive lenses through the site for the first time after years of buying from the high street and I was honestly nervous about it. The online eye test booking was quick and the pair arrived in about a week, nicely packed with a little case. The lenses were clear straight away and the frames fit well without me having to take them back to anywhere to be adjusted. Would happily order again.

Lenses are sharp but the frames pinch

I've been wearing glasses for decades so I know what I like. The lenses are clear and the anti glare coating works well at night. The frames pinch slightly behind the ears and it's taken a few weeks to get them to sit comfortably after a visit to get them adjusted.

Needed a backup for my work glasses

My main pair snapped and I needed something quick, so I looked at a few options before settling on this. Ordered a pair with a single vision prescription and the price was lower than the other sites I checked. The lenses are clear and sharp, pleased with them.

sturdy frames that suit me

I'll say at the outset that I was pleased with the frames I chose. The fit was good and the lenses are clear for reading and driving. Ordering was not complicated and the pair arrived when they said they would, well packed.

better than the other online place

I'd compared a few sites first and this one came out ahead of the usual online option I tried before. The frames feel sturdier and the virtual try on actually helped me pick a pair that suits my face. Ordering was simple and the glasses came well packaged.

Way cheaper than the opticians

Got my glasses here instead of the opticians on the high street and they were less than half the price. Ordering was dead easy on my phone and the pair turned up quicker than I thought. Looks decent, no complaints at all.

chose the progressive lenses over the cheaper option

I'd been considering a cheaper online option but I opted for the progressive lenses here instead, which I'm glad I did. The adjustment period was short and the frames sit well on my nose. Ordering was done in a few steps and the glasses arrived in good order, packed carefully and with a clear note about how to look after them.

New frames for the gym bag

Ordered a pair of sports sunglasses off the app on the bus home and they turned up on Thursday. Tracking was spot on and the frames feel sturdy. Sorted before the weekend.

Decent value for a spare pair

Picked up a second pair of frames as a backup and the price for a spare was the main draw. Delivery took a bit longer than the site said but they arrived in one piece. Lenses are fine, nothing to write home about.

Cheap, quick and the frames look good

Got a pair of round frames on the app after seeing them on Instagram and they look even better in person than in the photos. Took about five minutes to order and the delivery was quicker than I thought it'd be. Only paid about forty quid for everything with the lenses. Sorted, no notes.

titanium frames, lovely fit

Went for a titanium pair with anti reflective coating and they're light as anything. The fit was spot on after I measured my pupil distance with the phone tool, which I'd been dreading. Lenses are crisp and the case is solid. Delivery was next day from their warehouse, which is more than I expected.

Found them more reliable than the high street

I'd been to the high street opticians for years but I thought I'd try this site for a change, and I'm glad I did. The pair I chose was comparable in quality to what I'd been paying much more for. Ordering was clear and the glasses came in good time, well packed and with the paperwork in order.

Needed a new pair before a holiday

I'd broken my old glasses a week before going away and needed something fast. Ordered on a Monday with express delivery and they were on my doormat by Thursday, which saved the trip. Frames are lightweight and the prescription came out right first time.

Blue light lenses are the real selling point

I work long hours at a screen and the blue light filter lenses here made a noticeable difference to my eyes by the end of the day. Frames come with a little microfibre bag and a hard case. Ordering was straightforward and the pair arrived in about five days.

Needed some new specs for uni

My old pair had gone floppy and I needed something for lectures. Ordered a basic pair with the app and they came in a few days. Nice and light, do the job.
