5 Myths of Purchasing Eyewear Online

There are a ton of fables surrounding buying eyewear online. But are these tales true or false? Let’s find out. 

From groceries to medicines, we can buy almost everything online nowadays. So, why should eyewear be any different? But as the online eyewear sector grows so do the misconceptions around it. Let’s bust some of the myths we hear way too often when it comes to wanting to purchase eyeglasses online.  

1. Ka-Ching!

Online eyewear being more expensive has been making the rounds for a while now, but the truth of the matter is that purchasing frames online doesn’t leave a large dent in your wallet. You can purchase eyeglasses online at a lower price range in comparison to their offline counterparts.  

2. Mirror, Mirror on the Wall...

There’s a major concern of not knowing how the glasses will look on your face while buying them online because of the missing mirror, found in physical stores. But behold the magic of virtual try-on software which, allows you to try as many glasses as you like without sales representatives pushing you to buy the most expensive frames.

3. Prescription Problems? 

You can buy prescription eyeglasses online without any hassles. All you have to do is upload your prescription and you'll get a wide variety of eyewear as per your prescription. All you have to do is choose the desired lenses that are customized to suit your medical and fashion needs. So, you look on point and can see clearly!

4. The Right Fit

The myth surrounding the fact that eyeglasses ordered online don’t fit well is a complete fib. With the advancement of technology, online retailers offer sizing guides to help you find frames that fit your face perfectly. Also, every pair of eyeglasses has a set of measurements written in the description that you can compare with your current glasses to ensure the right fit. 

5. Tick-tock!

Another myth we are here to bust is that shopping for eyewear online is a long-drawn complicated process, nothing can be farther from the truth. If anything, shopping for your frames online cuts down on your travel time to the physical store. It lets you sit in the comfort of your home while browsing through a catalog of stylish frames suited to your needs. The user-friendly interfaces of the websites make it easy for you to navigate your way through the selection and purchasing process with ease and without any complications.
