About Frames Direct

Written by the company

Shop Eyeglasses Shop Sunglasses Shop Prescription Sunglasses

Exceptional Quality Prescription Eyeglasses

Frames Direct was founded in 1996 by doctors who pioneered the online eyewear industry as the first to offer prescription glasses. Our founders made a pledge to sell only the lenses they would wear themselves, so you can expect the highest quality prescription lenses in the eyewear you buy from us. Each Rx lens undergoes a rigorous six-step quality assurance process and verification using innovative digital lens technology, resulting in total accuracy and lenses free of scratching, distortion, and defects—guaranteed. And we add a scratch-resistant coating to every prescription lens at no charge.

FramesDirect Offers the Widest Selection of Authentic Brand-Name Eyewear

Explore Frames Direct to find an impressive variety of genuine designer eyeglasses, sunglasses, prescription sunglasses, and goggles for men, women, and kids. We offer a wide array of throwback, contemporary, and current frame styles from favorite brands and the newest designer labels. Our inventory includes over 100,000 products and 500 authentic designer brands, from Ray-Ban, Burberry, and Persol, to Versace, Dolce & Gabbana, and many others. We offer a multitude of options in performance and task-specific eyeglasses and sunglasses from Oakley, Costa, Maui Jim, Wiley X, and more. You’ll also find contact lenses from the brands you trust, including Bausch + Lomb, Ciba Vision, CooperVision, and Vistakon—browse disposable contact lenses in single-vision options to correct near- or farsightedness, toric contacts to correct astigmatism, bifocal, or multifocal contact lenses.

Superior Customer Service

Excellent customer service is the cornerstone of Frames Direct. Our staff of highly trained and friendly opticians—most with more than 20 years of experience—is available to assist you by phone, online chat, or email. They’ll help you enter your prescription information correctly, determine your correct frame size, recommend the best lens material for your eyeglasses or prescription sunglasses, and they’ll gladly point you to the best frame options for your face shape and lifestyle. We want you to feel confident the eyewear you order from us is exactly what you need.

We offer fair prices, with savings of as much as $150 or more on prescription eyewear and many designer sunglass lines. Our prescription lenses cost about half the price you would pay at most retail optical chains. And if you find sunglasses or eyeglasses frames—in the same color and style number—on another website for less, we’ll match that price.

They are the best company

They are the best company, cheapest prices and they are owned by the company (Luxotica ) that owns my sunglasses so never had a problem and bought about 10 pairs deep

Defective Glasses & Poor Communication

Had two experiences with purchasing from FramesDirect, and both involved poor communication. In my first order, I purchased a pair of RayBan prescription glasses and received no confirmation email or updates before my order on the site being marked as "glasses discontinued" 9 days later. The glasses are still being marketed on the website which is inconsistent.

I did receive another order I made of a different pair of glasses after this one. The glasses arrived with scratches, a very loose left lens, and debris all over the frames upon opening them right out the case. I returned them for a full refund and spoke to a customer service representative notating these poor experiences.

With that, I received no acknowledgement from the rep of the errors made on the part of the company, no effort to make it right, and basic information that my refund would be processed. I will never be returning as a customer here.

Response to FramesDirect (4/10/2026): I am currently wearing the glasses your company said were discontinued. I purchased them from another online retailer who is a direct competitor of yours and they only took 4 days to be delivered with no issues. Additionally, the glasses were in perfect condition unlike the second pair of frames that were delivered to me by FramesDirect (misaligned, loose lens, scratched, and covered in debris). You will never have my business again.

Hello Briana,

I am sorry to hear about the experience you had with your orders. Your first order was for a Ray-Ban RB7217F. This frame is now discontinued and is no longer on the website. This is the alternate version of the RB7217 that is still available to order. If you are interested in the standard version of the frame instead of the alternate fit version, we would be happy to help you with that order. I will have a member of management reach out to you to discuss both orders.

Frame direct is a very dishonest and probably a scammer company I personally think their reviews aren’t legit because let me tell you I order some prescriptions sunglasses with them over a month ago when I placed my order they say 7-10 business days now it’s over 30 days and I got an email from them saying that my order should take another 7-10 days thats what they said about 5 weeks ago more likely another 5 weeks before I can get my order if I ever get it very very disappointed with this trashy company and service I’ll not recommend this company to anybody

Hello Pedro,

Thank you for ordering your Kaenon sunglasses with us. I apologize that there have been delays in processing your order. The sunglasses were initially made with the incorrect color lenses. We sent the glasses back to be remade. Your shipping method was updated to try to make up for the processing delay. I will have a member of management reach out to you to discuss your order.

Great choice for authentic brands and fast shipping

Not many retail stores have Arnette polarized sunglasses, so I turned to Internet to purchase a pair. I chose FramesDirect as it is owned by EssilorLuxottica, so I knew it was a legit website and guarantees authentic products rather than some shady websites. Prices were competitive and it offered a large number of polarized choices which I like.

Ordering was easy and I opted for regular shipping but the package still arrived fast.

I placed an order on a Friday afternoon and I believe I received it within 4 business days with the free shipping method which is fast in my book.
