Online glasses?

Hi there. 

Has anyone ever used online providers for glasses and are they any good? 

I have a pair for reading and close up work, which I had from Specsavers at the end of August, but thinking I would like a spare pair (didn’t think I would at the time). Hubby is currently having major problems with glasses provided by them and is about to go back after returning his 1st pair (he has varifocals and doesn’t think the prescription has been done correctly), so I would like to go somewhere else really. I do have my prescription and it’s just a basic single vision one. 

Any ideas please?

  • Both husband and I have bought online from SelectSpecs, in 2020 and 2023 and more than likely will do so again this year, as due to have eye tests this year.

    Husband has bifocals and I have varifocals.
