framesdirect.com carries drivewear. Their prices are no great bargain, but are lower than brick-and-mortar on name-brand lenses and frames.
eyeglasslensdirect.com sells lenses only, and also carries Drivewear. You send in your own frame. They welcome either re-lensing or new frames bought elsewhere. Lens prices are not low like Zenni, but decent. I've used both of these companies. In each case, I received good but slow service, with excellent quality and workmanship on the lenses and mounting. I have bought Transitions from framesdirect, but have not tried Drivewear at all. Ira is working on a review of this category of online providers, who specialize in fancy frames and higher-end products like Drivewear. I only use them when I can't find what I want or need at a cheaper place. I have a strong and unusual prescription, and usually have to pay various upcharges at the bargain websites. If that's also the case in your prescription, you may find that eyeglasslensdirect or framesdirect ends up being not that much higher. On the other hand, if you have a mild prescription and don't want something specialized like Drivewear, it's hard to beat 39dollarglasses, eyebuydirect, or zenni, for basic glasses.
