Seeing is believing: I found the six most affordable places to buy glasses online—starting at $10

To me, visiting the eye doctor is on par with going to the dentist. If there’s one thing I don’t want someone doing, it’s poking at my eyeballs — I’m sure you can relate.

Then after the eye exam I just adore looking for new glasses in an overwhelming room filled with dozens and dozens of options. Especially when my pupils are dilated.

So, I took to the web to find a new pair of glasses. And my eyes were opened to an entire new world of online retailers. There are just so many stylish pairs and helpful tools available now. I had no idea.

Plus, online glasses are so much cheaper than the designer brands lining the shelves at my doctor’s office. Instead of costing hundreds of dollars, these frames are often less than $90. And some retailers offer insurance plan reimbursements. Hello, entirely free glasses, thank you for existing.

Here, dear reader, are the best places to find glasses online:
