Yesterday I was just reading through few blog’s and I came across one article which says “Best online glasses” The editor mentioned that he use to work for industry and recommended that you need to be careful while searching for eyeglasses online. He specially focused on cheap prescription eyeglasses online and cheap glasses do not last long. He has also mentioned that the frames and the lenses that used are of cheap imported quality and the lenses are of low quality but I am not too sure what he actually means. I have been in optical business for more than 10 years and have worked for one of the reputed online retailer for 4 years and as per my experience this has not been the case.
To focus on cheap quality imported frames well as per my experience there are only 2 types of frames designer frames and non branded frames. The only difference of these 2 frames are one has a brand name and the quality of course will be perfect as compared to high price and then next lot is Non-Branded frames. Non branded frames are much cheaper than the branded frames. Material will be the same just that the finishing will be a concern but compared to the price you are paying it is good so I actually do not understand what cheap quality imported frames are??
Moving onto low optical quality lenses. Most of the online retailers use branded lenses like Essilor and Zeiss however there are some stock lenses that they use. Before delivering the glasses the lenses pass through several tests where the prescription accuracy and other tests like UV protection is tested for the lenses. If a lenses of Essilor and non branded lenses have the same results under what basis has he mentioned low optical quality lenses?
To tell you frankly I have been wearing glasses which are sold at $6.48 online for the past 6 months and I have had no problem with the eyeglass frame or the lenses. If you are looking to buy prescription eyeglasses at reasonable price do think of opticstoreonline.com we offer large variety of prescription eyeglasses and prescription sunglasses.
