You both answered a prayer of mine by doing this review! I’m on disability and I was looking at trying to save up for literally months to get a new pair of glasses. Your review gave me the hope and answer I really needed! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
When I first heard of Zenni... I just bought this pair that was on sale for like 7 bucks... Thought I would get ripped but they were perfectly adequate glasses. Been buying from them for years. My vision has been unchanged for a long time. I started buying glasses more frivolously also ha ha I have several spares.
If you have a "light" prescription, single vision - I really can't see why you wouldn't at least try Zenni. I just ordered my first pair today. I wear progressives and they can definitely creep up in price with all the suggested add-ons or lens type options. Even compared to a great vision plan's out of pocket it's a great option for an additional pair or sunglasses. I think I'll still give my optometrist my business every year and take advantage of my plan but even then I believe Zenni helps to become a more informed buyer.
Just ordered a pair half an hour ago with my new prescription!! This is my first time buying from that company so I was a little nervous, but your video cleared all that up for me. So happy I won't be paying upwards of 200 dollars for classes any more!
@@brou971 have had them for 4 months now and no issues yet. I recommend measuring your face and check the size of the glasses before ordering so you can get a pair that fits good, mine are slightly big on the arm, but it doesn't really bother me. Hope this helps. :D
If you're in the position that your prescription is too high for the frames or you have other technical issues, just call them. They have a lot of frames with special capabilities you'd have a hard time finding just browsing. Like I wanted bifocal sunglasses and I would have never figured out how to order them without help. Turns out I had to use a specific progressive to get where I needed and the phone guy talked me through it.
I haven't had any experience ordering bifocals or progressives, glad you were able to get the help you needed and figure it out! How do you like your new sunglasses?
I love zenni. Have had some of my glasses for a few years now and they’re still in awesome condition. My prescription hasn’t really changed through the last few years luckily for me 😊
I’d definitely recommend going to see your eye doctor on a regular basis (once or twice a year) like you would for your family doctor or the dentist. I’m one of those who is skeptical about doctors, but, especially if you have insurance, you should go for a check up at least once a year. Just keep up with your health before it’s too late. You don’t want to wait until it’s an emergency. I just went for the first time in over 3 years and they’ve got all this new equipment and technology and did a bunch of tests and scans and they found something that we need to keep an eye on (no pun intended). Plus, your prescription can change over time. But definitely don’t let them scam you into super expensive glasses and/or contacts.
Highly recommend just got my pair in the mail without vision insurance they were trying to charge me like 300 for the perscription and glasses at visionworks!well worth it
My husband pays $600 for glasses with insurance I go to the same dr and I only get my yearly eye exam so I get the prescription and go straight to zenni optical. What a life saver .
The white actually looks hella good on you! Hello! Were you presciptions right from the start? Could you tell me about Zenni's customer service if you had an experience? I have heard they have terrible customer service pertaining to messing up prescriptions and not granting refunds or any form of resolution. Thanks.
@@StuffandusYT notifications are awful. I have not yet. I wanted to but started pinching pennies everywhere to start a trucking company lol. Once the money starts rolling in that's one of my to dos 😂. I have about $100 worth of glasses on my wish list. Having to wear these things to live and function I tend to keep a million pairs anyway.
@@elysemw Yeah I have issues with notifications too. Best of luck to you on starting your trucking company, you'll be known as the trucker with all the cool glasses. Keep us updated on your trucking/glasses journey.
@@Stuffandus the Hangtime 125116 the blue ones they are a little big on me but I was going for the Hideo Kojima look anyways ,its got like a see thru blue tint on the inside, pretty cool looking
Wish I saw this two months ago when I bought my first pair. I got Raybans from lenscrafters for $400. Put my ass in the poorhouse for two weeks. I'll definitely try out a pair from Zenni. With prices that low why not?
@@Xachremos LOL, I had Raybans too, Hella pricey. Zenni has so many frames that look like Raybans, without the Rayban price. You won't be disappointed!
I am going to order from here after my exam. I can get two pairs of progressives and a single vision sunglasses for less then one pair at the eye doctor.
@@Stuffandus I actually decided to get glass from America’s best when I had mr exam because I looked at my insurance and I had really good insurance. I ended up getting a pair of progressives and a single vision sunglasses for 250. The progressives would of been free but I had to go in lense to make sure to get the best field of vision. Then ended up getting 40% of the sunglasses.
Just ordered a pair of prescription sunglasses and prescription regular glasses. Both with the progressive bifocal lens and UV protection and scratch resistant. The sunglasses have a reflective color coating on them so I can look cool. $280 for both pair and that is including tax and shipping. Less than half the price that my optometrist wanted.
I think the white ones look cool, I want the green ones they have… also where did you get that hat, I like the military/ pillbox hats but can never find them
I would like to get some transitional ones, the ones that turn into sunglasses when you go outside and start driving so that I don't have to switch to sunglasses every time. I have 20/20 vision but have a single prescription for reading because I can't read without glasses.
Thanks for watching Anthony! They have alot of options for lenses including the transition lenses. Alot of the frames they carry look great as sunglasses. Which style are you thinking of getting?
I checked just now and at least for the aviator style they're 45$ before shipping. Not as cheap as I'd hoped but still better than the 600$ I paid for my current pair some years back.
People keep saying zenni is especially good for people with minor vision correction but i have no idea if mine is bad or not (first prescription) it says od -1.5 os -1.25
Bro in my country with 400 bucks you can get 2-4 pair of bespoke eyeglasses that will fit you because the frame is order made based on your 3D face scan at their place
So I purchased a set of prescription sunglasses from Zenni; everything about them was great, but looking through them seemed as if I was looking through a fishbowl! My prescription is only moderate at -3.00, so not bad enough to warrant that effect. My PD was only off by 1mm (checked with eye doctor). You think that's enough to affect much? I really wanna order the same frames but I don't want that effect again. Maybe it had something to do with the index (I ordered 1.50 instead of thinning them out).
thx for sharing. quick questionswhen u added the "Anti-Reflective Coating" for $4.95, does it have yellow tint like purple reflective or all clear like crystal?
@@Stuffandus I see, thx! I also want to thx for showing all the glasses and kim's. I wish u could update new video about how the glasses went, any complains, did the all the frame last. Im planning to get aviator 418911 the one u said it too small but I would like to see if Kim could try that glasses. I have a big head but no sure if we have same size, im not related to ya! just still debating 418911, I want a big glasses but looks like I have to look another glasses again.
@@KewpieGirl all the glasses are still working great. Kim has been really happy with her selections. All of my glasses are still in great shape minus the ones I use for rougher activities.
How long does it take for you guys to receive your glasses? A month at least? Just going off your shipping part of your video. This is my first time hearing about Zenni and it seems pretty nice. Only thing that got me are the reviews that keep saying they're weak and break easy. Thanks!
It depends on where you live, below are the shipping rates along with estimated delivery time. U.S. (All 50 States) Standard Shipping (USPS) Estimated Delivery: 14-21 days $4.95 Priority Shipping (USPS) Estimated Delivery: 10-16 days $8.45 Express Shipping (USPS/UPS/FedEx) Estimated Delivery: 8-12 days $18.95 U.S. Territories (Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, etc.) Standard Shipping (USPS) Estimated Delivery: 14-21 days $4.95 Priority Shipping (USPS) Estimated Delivery: 10-16 days $8.45 Canada Standard Shipping Estimated Delivery: 14-21 days $6.95 Express Shipping Estimated Delivery: 8-14 days $11.95 Australia & New Zealand Standard Shipping Estimated Delivery: 14-21 days $9.95 Express Shipping Estimated Delivery: 7-14 days $28.95 Israel Standard Shipping Estimated Delivery: 21-50 days $9.95 Express Shipping Estimated Delivery: 8-14 days $19.95 Europe Standard Shipping Estimated Delivery: 17-28 days $9.95 Express Shipping Estimated Delivery: 8-14 days $19.95 International Standard Shipping Estimated Delivery: 21-28 days $9.95
The frames are on the lighter side so I could understand someone saying they feel weak and maybe not as heavy as some other brands frames. I haven't had any frames break on me yet and I've had mine for a few years now. For the price your paying on Zenni compared to going somewhere like a Lenscrafters, I think you'll be happy with your purchase.
I had this issue before. It was frustrating and I closed the website. When I tried later that day, the ADD was no longer a ‘required’ option. It went away on its own.
If your seeing an "ADD" box to fill in when entering your prescription on the website, it means you've chosen 'progressive' or 'bi-focal' when clicking on the various prescription options. You should have chosen 'single vision' and this way you can enter your prescription without an "ADD" box needing to be filled in.
@@Stuffandus They’re much better then I expected! They feel slightly cheaper than most glasses but they still feel incredible. I’m also very surprised at how well they fit considering I didn’t try them on in person. I’ll definitely be buying glasses from Zenni’s from now on!
There is only one PD. It is the distance between your pupils, which doesn't change with each pair of glasses. It also stays the same once your head stops growing.
The distance between your pupils will change depending on where you are looking. At close range the pupils are closer. Try to look at your nose to see this happen.
i like your white frames. I have the same frames in both red with tinted lenses, and yellow with yellow lenses. the yellow ones scream "dirty vintage". i feel like they make me smell like cigarette smoke

I’m progressive also. How much did your glasses come out to. With my Insurance, I pay around 400
I've had zennis for two years and I couldn't be happier

Appreciate that, thanks for watching!
Ordered several. Reasonably priced. Better quality than vision works.
We've been happy with the quality too
The white looks good king
Thanks dude!
Pretty awesome option for people looking for a cheap pair of glasses as a compliment to contact lenses.
Definitely a great option to have just in case you need to take a break from your contacts
Just ordered a pair for my son for $86. I’m so happy with the purchase.
Amazing!
Zenni doesn't offer expedited shipping options anymore. However, I live in Ca. so the regular shipping time has been fine
Good to know, thanks for the update!
