If you have a prescription, just walk into a optometrist. Don't order anything online. A optometrist will properly measure your physical features and center your prescription accordingly. It's better to have that done in person than estimate over the Internet. However, it does cost more. But places like LensCrafters run deals and discount of you buy frames + lens from them.

Also, there is nothing wrong with a Costco optometrist. It's just a location. Most pharmacies are located in grocery stores as well. Doesn't make them less qualified, it's just a employer.

yeah, they are licensed optometrist either way.


I actually found the same exact glasses, just non name brand at costco for about $70. and my friend works in the optometry department so he is going to try and hook me up.

thanks for the links guys!
