CHEAP ONLINE GLASSES ANYONE?

So have had an eye test and glasses are so expensive in the opticians.

Anyone use any online shops who you just give your prescription to?

Goggles4u is really cheap. You can get glasses for £6 .. i got 2 for £20 last week

SelectSpecs is cheap too

The quality is surprisingly good and i honestly would never go back to high street opticians to buy glasses

I get mine from glasses direct.. great service and as cheap as you want.

I’ve used select specs for a few years now, and I’ve been happy with their £6/10 plastic frames.

Glasses direct are good, and can be very cheap. Plus I think new customers can get a discount.

I've been very happy with select specs for years

Glasses direct. I did my eye test at Specsavers and got the prescription then went online and they had an offer on for buy one get one free plus a discount via the money saving expert website which meant I got two brand new pairs for £14!!!

Really good quality and you get to try them on visually with their video try on so you can see how they will look

Another vote for glasses direct. Currently wearing a pair I bought for £20 to tide me over until i could go try on some more expensive ones, but have ended up keeping them as my main every day pair.

I used the optic shop for mine, they are great.

Are you a Costco member?. They have a good selection & good prices

Beeeeeeeeeeeeeep · 03/07/2021 18:24

I've had 3 pairs from spex4less, two are good, both were £30+, I bought a pair for £25 and they were not so good, just a bit wonky and flimsy.

Another vote for Glasses Direct

I tried once and would never waste money that way again. If there is any problem with how they have made the glasses then you basically have no come back.

Glasses Direct. I got two pairs for £24 a couple of years ago, one was prescription sunglasses too. Combined two offers. I'm always getting emails saying "40% off" and "flash sale". Look online for discount codes. If one happens to come through in the next day or so, i can send it to you.
