Zenni eyeglasses. They’re great.

I've not heard them advertised, but my partner gets constant compliments on like 5+ different pairs of Zenni frames, plus they're super cheap even with prescription lenses.

Eggs…actly. My prescription readers were less than $10 shipped!

Also got them, but never knew they advertised. Got expensive designer glasses from a small German shop, but needed some replacement for traveling and something for sports with my new measurements. So I ordered something cheap of Zenni. My replacement glasses were 50€ glassesvfrom Zenni that I liked more than the expensive ones in the end. So now I am mostly wearing those.

Congratulations on having a normal sized head. NONE of their eyeglasses are big enough to fit around my melon. And no, it's not fat getting in the way, just my skull. Tall people have large skulls, go figure. You'd think that an online store would be able to stock more variety in sizing. Overall, I wanted to like them, but I cannot where anything they sell except sunglasses, which oddly enough come in larger sizes. At least the optometrist can put regular lens in sunglasses frames to accommodate my apparently freakish proportions, but neither Zenni nor that other one will.
