I buy local. I don't blink at the difference in price

These, from Zenni, fit perfect right out of the box.

The prescription I used, was 3 years old. They never questioned it.
I'll get a new one for the next pair.

When I ordered my pair last night from Zenni....an Rx was never requested of me.

^^^ Just copied the numbers off the Rx?
That might be what I did also...I forget.

Correct. I have my Rx on a sheet of paper given to me upon completion of my exam. It has both glasses and contacts. Signed by my optometrist.

I decided a couple days ago, maybe I should have a back-up pair of my Zenni's.
Went to the web-site and pulled up my acct with the two year old purchase.
There was a box right there that said 'reorder last pair?'
Clicked on it and my card info was still there....less than 5 min and a new pair is on it's way.

My Zenni's arrived today and they're GREAT! Perfect fit and very good vision!

I chose all plastic frames to avoid having those little nose pads that always seen to bend and have to be adjusted all the time.

Total time from order to arrival was 14 days. I just ordered another pair - this time prescription sunglasses.

At some point I will also order another pair to use while working outside - something very durable for physical activities.

Is there something in the lens reflection that we are supposed to interpret?

I'm not sure what you mean. I only see the frames/stems that fit over the ear..:confused:
click on the quarter view or the 360

I don't think they would work for me. I sweat quite a bit when I work and fear they would fog up due to the foam lens surroundings.

They do look pretty sturdy though....

Yeah...I didn't notice the foam padding until I clicked on the other views...that would be bad in hot weather. Amazing low price.

And it looks they're only available with that green frame.

Probably work good on a motorcycle where you're not sweating so much. Foam would help keep air/dust/bugs out.

Ordered my Zenni's.....a week ago I was given the tracking number. This is the message and there has been no movement since.

Why would it sit there for a week?

Mine took 2 weeks from order date to delivery.

Let us know when they arrive and how long it took - from date of order to delivery.

BTW, I got my tracking # today on my shades. :cool:

stevej37 02-22-2021 05:11 PM

My order date is 2/5/2021 which is understandable.
But they sent me a tracking number a week ago. 2/15/2021

And it hasn't left since.

I'll report back.

Just checked on my sun glass order. Ordered on Feb. 14 and tracking info sent to me on Feb, 22, so that's 8 days. On their website they say expect 14-21 days so we're both ahead of schedule I guess.

stevej37 02-23-2021 07:02 AM

^^^ I prob didn't explain what I meant real well...my fault. :)
I have no problem with Zenni's speed...they did mine very fast.

But on Feb 16 they finished them and sent me this tracking number...

A week later (today) there is still no update or movement from the dist. center.
Sitting there done for a week seems strange.

Any shipping updates?

I just checked and my projected delivery date is Monday. Last time it came a little earlier, which would be over the weekend now for me.

stevej37 02-26-2021 02:33 PM

They showed up today...along with my Propella!
The tracking number never changed from being in the dist center in CA....to here.
Strange....but I am glad they made it. (why even have a tracking # if it doesn't track?)

It is really nice to open the box, and put the glasses on, and they fit perfectly.
I am totally sold on Zenni.
