Unhappy experience of buying prescription glasses online

For the reason that I could save a fortune buying goods online compared with getting them from those entity stores. I used to make deals online for prescription glasses. I bought several pairs of prescription sunglasses through online shops before. They are all great and I never have any problem with them.

But recently, I think I might be out of lack, the latest pair of glasses I received from an online store is of poor quality and I can't see very well using them. I tried using them for a few days but kept getting headaches. The left lens of these glasses has a “D 200” molded into the lenses. Very annoying! The right lens is blurry when I look straight ahead. Someone probably measured wrong! If I look a little left using the right lens, I can see better, but still not clearly! I called their company within a couple of days of receiving them and was told another pair of regular bifocal would be sent to me in a week or so. I never got them so far! So I called them yesterday to ask them not to bother sending me another pair of glasses and to give me a credit on the credit card I used to purchase them since they failed to send out the replacement pair as promised, I will go to another company and buy a good pair.

One of my friends recommends a company called http://www.cheapglasses123.com/ which sells full prescription eyeglasses starting at just $7.95 per pair. I can not believe that I can get a complete order in less than 14.00 dollars. There is an extra charge if I want bifocals lenses, progressive lenses, or prism correction. They also charge extra for anti-reflective coating (though it's $9.95 extra as opposed to around $50-$100 extra at other stores) and sunglass clip-on ($4.95). The shipping and handling fee is just $5.95 no matter how many pairs I want to order, so I am thinking about getting a pair for myself first this month, if the quality is good, I will pay to order for the whole family at one time. Folks, wish me luck!
