9 Tips On How To Buy Prescription Glasses | Buying Perfect Pair Of Eyeglasses Online | Eye-Glasses

About this video

Centeno provides nine tips for purchasing prescription glasses without overpaying, covering topics such as obtaining an up-to-date prescription, understanding frame sizing and selection based on face shape and lifestyle needs, comparing in-store versus online purchasing options, evaluating add-ons and return policies, and considering multiple pairs for different occasions. He emphasizes the importance of finding frames that build confidence while maximizing value for money.

Key takeaways

• Centeno recommends obtaining an up-to-date prescription (every two years for adults, annually for younger men) and requesting your pupillary distance before shopping, as some retailers resist providing it to prevent online purchases
• Centeno advises selecting frames based on three factors: face shape, personal/professional needs, and proper sizing by lens-bridge-temple measurements, noting that glasses convey different messages depending on style
• Centeno argues that online retailers like GlassesUSA offer significant savings (he observed a 70% price difference) with wider selection and tools like virtual try-on, while in-store purchases provide local service and adjustments
