More than a month ago, I wrote about the broken leg of my eyeglasses, thanks to my litte C. It was temporarily fixed by M so until now I don’t feel the urgent need yet to get a replacement. I decided I’ll use it as much as I can to at least compensate the amount I paid for it. Getting the same kind of eyeglasses here in Europe will be quite expensive.

But I might consider ordering online coz there’s this cheap eyeglasses store that I’ve been reading much about lately. I bet you’ve heard about it too. Does Zenni Optical sounds familiar to you? It‘s an online retailer of affordable eyeglasses. Imagine a simple pair starting at $8? I checked how much my kind of eyeglasses would cost, and I was surprised it was really very cheap at only $39!

How can they sell eyeglasses that cheap? I found out that they sell directly from their own manufacturer to customers hence lessening the cost coz there are no middlemen involved. They also don’t spend too much on advertisement. With their very cheap price, I can even order maybe 2 pairs and still pay less than what I would have to pay in my favorite optical shop for 1 pair.

If only they have an online eye check-up, it would be great to know how much my eye grade is now, before ordering eyeglasses.
