Glasses Deals & Offers

Yeah thanks, there is a charge but it get’s pricey

I have a mate who's ordered 8.50s before from them but they need to see the prescription. Cant remember if there was a charge or not but he chose More Than 8 in the prescription part.

-8 is all they go up to, I’m -9!!!

-8??? God bless you- tell me when you are on the road -driving, I may stay at home :d (devil)

If you get an eye test try to get your Pupillary Distance, the distance between your eyes. Average is 63mm. I'm 68. It can be measured fairly well with a ruler. Legally you must be given a prescription but they don't like giving out the PD value as they know you will just go else where for glasses.

These women. Red eyes? Confused look? A bit dribbly around the face? Actual T Virus present in these glasses I fear

Photo proof or it never happens.

I got these last time they were on special offer and I’ve being batting the women off ever since. Worth every penny

Are you required to purchase glasses? For the test?

Thanks for posting. I just bought a couple of pairs of glasses. Hmm, they offer a price match and money back guarantee, I wonder if they’ll price match against themselves, and refund the difference. ;)

Tried online and in store nowhere to be seen also tried the last time the offer came up on hotdeals last week

Coventry (y)

Which Costco please?

Just a heads up, I've ordered from these guys twice and had problems both times. Wrong lenses, and then obviously damaged frames. Of course, I might just have been unlucky.

Yeah, my optician keeps telling me to come back for a contact lens appointment - not sure these days as my eyes are drier than they used to be.

Consider trial of multifoca l contact lenses. ;)

I only give things to charity which I think are still usable - handed in a load of spectacles/sunnies I'd bought over the years from Goggles4U and Zenni to the British Heart Foundation* a few weeks ago, some not worn that often as I tend to stick to a few favourites. Internet specs are good way to experiment, I suppose. The popularity of those sites means that the quality/looks of second-hand prescription glasses will be much better than the dreaded days of "NHS Specs" kids got bullied at school for. I'm now on varifocals as I had contact lenses in a year or so ago and *couldn't read the menu* in a restaurant at all..close up sight is getting worse :( *Weirdly, their website says they don't accept prescription spectacles, yet the shop I visited took them quite happily.

I have always recycled glasses through charities, but recently read this interesting piece - excerpt copied below. https://www.theguardian.com/news/2018/may/10/the-invisible-power-of-big-glasses-eyewear-industry-essilor-luxottica I can understand the reasoning but it saddens me that image and branding has taken hold so completely. It also contradicts my own observations regarding clothing in some of the poorest countries in Africa, where you do still see people wearing clothing which seems to me to be beyond branding. Perhaps the few countries which still don't care about branding haven't yet reached the stage of providing optical care. I certainly don't recall seeing glasses being worn, and will be sure to take more notice on my next trip. "The fusion of the fashion industry and the optical business is now regarded as complete. Until recently, eye-health charities and campaigners used to distribute thousands of pairs of secondhand glasses from richer countries to poorer populations that lacked them. In 2011, the World Health Organization advised them to stop – in part because people were refusing to wear outdated styles. “Being poor doesn’t mean we want to look stupid, you know,” Prof Kovin Naidoo, who runs the Brien Holden Institute, one of the world’s leading eye-health NGOs, told me."

I should imagine they do as opticians you can pop in and they'll do it for free, screw and fix for you.

Glasses19 works but doesn't give free delivery

Has this offer expired now?

They take a month! But worth it if you get a good deal!!

Didn't work for me but glasses19 did work

For anyone curious about delivery, I ordered 2 pair from here and one from specky4eyes on 27 Feb. First pair from Glasses Direct was dispatched on 28th, and arrived the next day :D Had an email today that the second pair was on its way. Oh, and specky4eyes? Sent me an email today saying that their optician had okayed my prescription. No mention of the glasses I'd ordered, mind.

Fab price zanyA, thank you <3

No they're not, beauty if in the eye of beholder XD I think they're great for cappuccinos (y)

Great! Happy shopping (y)

I like IKEA unbreakable crockery but these are ugly.

Handy timing, going to IKEA tomorrow anyway and could do with a new set of glasses.

XD

Still some in Dunfermline

I've been robbed! Paid 60p & 75p for these 2 designs in my local Tesco this week (still think it's a bargain though as love the patterns on them!)

Hi which store please

I've got these. They're pretty heavy and robust. The kids haven 't managed to smash one yet! The only downside is they're not dishwasher safe but we've been putting them in there and it's only after about 4 months that any of the patterns have started to come off. For this money, you can't go wrong.
