I really hate how low quality warby Parker is.

Shitty case, shitty frames and almost all their lenses are sub-association tier polycarbonate.

I'm not a 9 year old, I can handle frames that aren't the cheapest acetate, stupid spring hinges/unbreakable hinges that sit on the face softly and off center and saftey glasses material scratch prone non-attendance plastic with the lowest abbe value.

I honestly don't know what kind of consumer exists in this world where warby Parker is a completely viable option.


I bet it's the type of person who takes pubic transport everywhere and doesn't have a bedframe

Just bareback matress probably from Goodwill on the floor with no sheets and dirty plates everywhere


That's the warby Parker customer

Eyebuy seems to have its own higher quality brand (reflector or something like that) so perhaps that is at least a step up. I ordered a pair from that so I will find out

So what's the deal with buying glasses online?

My current pair is kinda fucked and I can't find my other pair.

I was just going to replace my current frames with the same frame, but since it would be like 60 bucks from America's best I was thinking of getting a new eye exam since it's been a few years and I feel that my eyes aren't great.

Dad offered to pay for it I guess, but when I mentioned getting them online he kinda squirmed.

I've had mine for just over three years, and the only issue I've had is one hinge getting a little loose.
It's time for a new pair anyways though.
>>
>>12491622
Contacts are a pain in the ass, especially when you've got astigmatism like me, because it required a special kind of lens that has to sit exactly on your eye a certain way or they're extremely uncomfortable. Also, they're a hassle to take in and out, and require you to have your case, solution and preferably a mirror.

Glasses are easy as fuck, and if you take care of them, last you forever. Contacts have to be thrown away and replaced and you have to reorder them.
>>
What are your thoughts on wearing glasses just as a fashion accessory, as in, not needing a prescription but liking the look of glasses and wearing them to compliment your outfit, just like a watch or anything else?
>>
>>12491853
tryhard af, but whatever
>>
>>12491827
The thing you need to understand about glasses, is that they're generally made out of acetate, which is cheap as hell. Glasses cost practically nothing to make, and lenses are pretty cheap too.

The reason you're paying insane prices for them in stores is because an Italian company called Luxottica has a monopoly on brands worldwide, and inflates the prices. You're paying for a name when you buy glasses, even though it's all the same cheap acetate and metal. 400 for a pair of Oliver Peoples frames is a complete joke.

Companies like Warby Parker decided they were going to make their own glasses at home, cutting out all extra costs, and offer glasses cheap as hell like they should be. Eyebuydirect and others have also done the same thing.

All you need is a prescription and your pupillary distance and they do everything for you.

And Warby Parker has a try on at home option where they mail you the frames you're looking at so you can see how they actually look and fit.

This

Also WP is expanding like crazy and opening a ton of stores so as long as you live in civilization you can try them on in store. Sometimes frames or certain colors aren't available for try on through the mail so going to the store is handy

Also they have good customer support and return policy, etc etc.

The downside is waiting for your shit in the mail but you usually wait a few days anyway if you are getting them from a local place

$200 for the glasses, including high-index material (otherwise they'd be 1/2 inch thick), and UV/Anti-glare coating. Plus $200 for polarized, custom clip-ons (since nobody makes frames with clips these damn days). I tried getting some prescription aviators at the same price, but even with the high-index material they were comically thick.

This is the kind of shit I'm dealing with. My case isn't as extreme but I feel like I can't wear glasses now without my eyes looking close together. I've noticed all the attractive models in eyewear pics never have this in the slightest... probably fake lenses.

Ugh, well... in a year when my insurance covers it again, I might end up going back to contacts. I didn't really want to after I gave them up 5 years ago (too much pain and effort in the mornings when working full-time, not to mention expensive). I feel that frames look good on me though.

There's polycarbonate, which is cheapest, but if you have a stronger prescription, it gets thicker at an exponential rate

Then there's "high index" or 1.67-somethingorother (different merchants all call it differently). This will cut down the thickness in general, unless you have an ultra-high prescription or very large frames (it gets thicker the further out). It costs more than polycarbonate, but not much.

Then there's some other material, the name escapes me at the moment, but it is necessary if you have a very high script. It costs significantly more, and is generally difficult to find at most retailers.

How are Eyebuydirect's glasses quality? Do they look or feel extremely cheap? I don't feel like dropping 400 for glasses.
>>
>>12498353
The point is that there's high index, there's polycarbonate, but there's no "high index polycarbonate".
Shops usually won't refer to lenses as high index until 1.67, unless they're pushing plastic 1.6's, which is about as scummy a marketing trick.
The term you're looking for is 1.74, innit? That isn't hard to find at all, unless you're really scraping the bottom of the barrel for shops. Or do you have the higher refractive index lenses in mind?

Aw well that happens to all of us, no big. Polycarb is not actually the cheapest, a lot of cheap shops can sell good ol' fashion 1.49 plastic for I mean like $20 bucks online, but when paying that little for lenses folks gotta bear in mind that they're also skimping on labour costs, and some overworked and undertrained lab technician in dallas is probably gonna fuck up your glasses in a way you won't even notice until the warranty is up.

My dream glasses are the Gregory Peck Oliver Peoples glasses, but those are horrendously overpriced Luxottica shit.

These are practically the same frame but for a fraction of the cost.

With the recent merger with essilor I mean you basically can't. A good chunk of affordable lenses in the north american market come through essilor, and even places that push cheaper brands like Shamir (wouldn't recommend the stuff tho) push luxottica frames, and are sometimes literally owned by luxottica (fun fact: lensecrafters uses shamir lenses in some regions, they're hot garbage but they'll charge you up the ass for em)

I mean maybe if you've got an absurdly generous spending account that lets you buy frames handmade out of old earrings with Zeiss lenses on top then you're technically escaped Luxottica, but in the most backwards fashion.

>>12501346
All shops offer plano lenses. You won't be able to claim them on insurance, but you can still buy them. Folks won't know you're just wearing them for kicks.

My girlfriend likes these but I think they're cuck-tier, what do?
>>
>>12505477
Firstly shave. Secondly stop wearing that hat. Thirdly pick a frame which is more neutral colored and does not match with your facial hair. I dunno where you are from but where I live that textured/wooden/black/brown/orange look is associated with slav heritage aka grandad/grandma tier. Other than that your face shape is oval/heart so you can check out what types of frames fit your head shape.

Hope this helps

You need sharper, thinner and less wide glasses.

Reminder that if your eyebrows are hidden by your frames, your glasses are too big.
Reminder that if your lenses go past the sides of your face, your glasses are too big.
Reminder that if your pupils aren't in the center of the lenses, your glasses are too big.

Reminder that if your glasses are too big, you will never look good no matter what you wear or do otherwise.

That is all.

Not really, I tried on a pair recently and really the issue is the contrast between the color of my cheeks and under my eyes. The frame conceals it completely.
The glasses I tried on weren't a style I'd wear though and I don't know whats suggested for the shape of my face. I'm going to wear them until I get progress with a skin care regimen but it depends on the results
