Buying glasses online

[Gog]

Yes most likely frames from Luxottica and lenses from Essilor. Was a "long read" about it in the Guardian last year:

Just an update on my Low Cost Glasses order, not bad for £18.95 delivered and they actually fit good too. I've had glasses from Glasses Direct before where they have been so wonky they wouldn't even sit on my face.

The gimmicks to measure PD are only a couple of quid on the rainforest or ebay if you don't want to mess around with apps or a ruler in the mirror.

Every pair of glasses I've had since my initial pair has come from online sources, never had a problem. Mostly Glasses direct (tend to go for the all singing all dancing transitions pair) but I did buy a bare bones pair from goggles4u and they do the job just fine.

I've ordered a pair from goggles4u, seem quite good value at £26 delivered for the gradient tinted lenses.
