Anyone bought presciption glasses from Walmart?

[ladypanther]

I want no line bifocals, antiglare, tansition lenses.  Can get them at Walmart for 1/2 of what I can get them for at Lenscrafters.  (Do not have vision insuance).  Would buy the frames somewhere else.

 

Anyone bought from Walmart?? How is the quality?

A guy at work gets his from an online place dirt cheap. I can ask where he gets them tomorrow.

I just got a pair of glasses for wearing around the house at Visionworks for $69.  I don't know how much you were wanting to spend but that's pretty cheap in my opinion.

I am willing to spend a lot more but always do not want to spend more than I have to.  Lens Crafters is about 600 -30% (for not having insurance) for the lenses that I want. Plus frames.

 

I will check out visionworks.  Thanks.

I've gotten all of my vision needs satisfied at Wal-Mart since high school. I still have the frames I got my freshman year of college. Pretty nice frames. Sturdy (starting to bend and get a little loose. Need to get black rimmed glasses next time I go back for my eyes) and comfortable. I don't know if they do transitions, but I THINK they do. If they don't, Sears used to (I had to go there to get my transitions in middle school). Lenses are decent quality. My only gripe is if you don't clean them semi-regularly, they get gunked up kinda easy and are a little easy to scratch if you're one to drop your glasses much.


Can't say as much about lenses, really. I wear contacts pretty much all the time. My glasses are in case I run out of contacts or if I just feel like giving my eyes a rest one day.

I manufacture lenses for a living in wholesale lab. (Surface and edge) Been doing it for 40+ years.  I am on my wife's insurance and go to walmart for one pair a year. They give the best price,copay ect.  They are just fine if the price is best.  If you feel you will have problems, best there than online. You got the walmart in person thing. If you think on line will be ok, you will need what they call a PD.   Any optician can do this , including walmart, but some are stuborn about for obvious reasons. To get a PD, you will need a MiliMeter  ruler.  Get a friend to look you face to face , YOU look at their left eye have them look at your right eye and put the zero there, Then YOU look at their right eye and tell them to get the number under YOUR left eye.  Usually will be around 63 MM. There are lots of ways to get this but this works fine.  I've made probably a million pairs of eye glasses. I do make my own lenses when i am not due on Insurance.
