The BEST Cheap Glasses

I’m always incredibly thrilled to write posts about Zenni Optical.  Before I found them I paid $300/pair for my glasses, and $50 for replacement arms when my little girls would ‘helpfully’ bring Mommy her eyeglasses (stretching the arms too far and breaking them off!)  Since I’ve been wearing my $35 pair from Zenni (this is a high-end flexible model), I haven’t lost an arm or needed a replacement, despite the fact that I’ve dropped them, and my little girls are as helpful as ever!

I just saw my mother-in-law drop a pair of her drugstore style reading glasses and break them in the past two weeks, “Why not just get an eye examin and go to Zenni where prices start at $8?”  My mom has switched over, buying bifocals that would have cost $500+ for my step-dad for only $65, and high-index glasses for my little brother too.

If you’ve had a chance to read Eric’s review at the Brooklyn Liberal Examiner you might be feeling skeptical, I was too at first, but finally asked what did I have to lose?  I scoured the web to find the ‘too good to be true’ mentions of $8 glasses; two pairs of prescription glasses for $65 including shipping later and I’m a happy girl!  I’m thankful that there’s a cheaper way!
