NOW my brother tells me....

Kim-

Your eye doctor will have that information, sometimes they put it on the Rx.

Although this seems like a great deal, I have some worries: How do you pick the right frame without trying it on?? And how do you get it adjusted once it arrives? If you wear multifocal lens, those lines need to be just right, or it will bother you!

Many moons ago I worked for an eye surgeon, and there was an optician next door (same company) so I would fill in for vacations or days off. The fit is most important - you are going to be wearing these glasses 12 + hours a day - make sure they fit right!!

I would first go shopping, write down the style/manufactor and size of the frame you like, then see if this site carries it. Other wise it sounds like a smoking deal.

Bunny, after trying on literally hundreds of frames in different shops I got a real good feel for what shapes, colors, and sizes fit me right. You will have to adjust them when you get them, but any eyeglass shop will do that for you for free (or at least they all do that around here). Its definitely not for everybody. It is a leap of faith and you will have to do some work. I have all the numbers except my pupil dimension, but JCPenney has that so I can ask them. I'm willing to try it once.... at the cheapest point, you're $9 including shipping for a complete pair of no-frills glasses.... you can't lose too badly

My brother said he bought half a dozen frames from there already and all of them are perfect, no problem. My brother is a tough cookie -- if you can impress him, you've done a great job.

I also did a search for reviews on them and for the most part, everyone is quite pleased with their glasses. I think that my prescription including thin lenses and frames for $30 is an awesome deal. I'm going to try them in a few months (I need to at least use my new ones first )
