I ordered these on January 18th, after a checkup confirmed my suspicion that I needed new glasses. I was a little concerned, because I've heard progressive lenses are harder to get right online.
The day after I ordered, Zenni emailed me to tell me that the frames I selected weren't appropriate for the strength of my prescription and the fact that I needed progressive lenses. They suggested two other similar frames that would work. I re-ordered (the new order was actually cheaper than the original one), and they quickly refunded my credit card payment for the original order. I spent a total of $61.80 on the glasses, including anti-reflective coating and clip-on sunglasses. I got an email on February 2, stating that my order had been shipped from their overseas lab to their US office on January 27. Later in the day, I got an email stating the glasses had been mailed to me on February 2. The glasses arrived yesterday, February 5th, and they're BEAUTIFUL. The prescription is perfect - everything looks so much clearer! There is no problem at all with the progressive lenses. These glasses are every bit as good as any glasses I've bought from a store. FYI, here's my prescription, so you can see just how high-powered those lenses are. OD-SPH: -9.00 X OD-CYL: -1.00 OD-AXIS: 70 OD-ADD: +1.50 OS-SPH: -10.00 X OS-CYL: -1.75 OS-AXIS: 112 OS-ADD: +1.50 PD-Pupillary Distance: 66 Prescription & Lens Type: Progressive(No-Line Multi-Focal) It always takes at least ten days for Lenscrafters or whoever I get my glasses from locally to get my lenses in, so there's barely any difference in wait time. The last pair of glasses I got from Lenscrafters cost well over $400. I suspect I'll end up buying driving glasses and reading glasses from them sometime down the line. I'll definitely be recommending Zenni to my friends. Layna Andersen -- Check us out at the oft-updated http://glassyeyes.blogspot.com!
