39dollarglasses


First, I want to let you know that this is a totally unsolicited, deserving rave about a company in the USA that gave me ace #1 service!
I am extremely nearsighted and I have never really been able to wear contact lenses. My present insurance situation is kind of shaky and glasses are not covered.
A few years ago, I had my eyes examined and bought a new pair of glasses here in France and the price was astronomical. I was very unhappy with the glasses, the lenses were not superthin and the UV coating began to come off in a few months. I paid over 400 Euros for them.

When I was in the USA, I began to price glasses as I really wanted a new pair and I needed reading glasses....
That's when I learned about this company, 39dollarglasses in Ronkokoma, NY. I saw a review on the blog, boingboing. So, I made a few email inquiries and decided to get my eyes checked here in France. I paide 20 Euros for an eye exam and with the prescription, I  followed the simple directions on the webs site. I ordered a frame style that I saw at the optician in Brive la Gaillarde...I had gotten a devise for my prescription with the frames for over 400 Euros! (almost $600.00)

The price from 39dollarglasses was only 68 dollars...for the most expensive new style with the thinnest lenses. I ordered reading glasses and felt so good aboiut the money I was saving, that I took advantage of their sunglass offer and got 20 dollars off!
With shipping to Europe, the total was around $180 USD! I conservatively estimated that I saved well over $1100 USD for the three pairs of glasses.
The glasses arrived in one week and I have to admit, I am totally satisfied with them.
If you need glasses and have a current presciption...check out 39dollarglasses.
Mention me and maybe they'll give me free shipping on my next order!
