New Glasses, Costco or Walmart? - Bogleheads.org
Mar 22, 2021 · We've used Costco Optical for years (10+) and have been very pleased. Prices are fair, though not as good as Zenni Optical. They are good with adjustments (useful for when our kids step lightly on their glasses). They've also been useful in replacing frames and reusing lenses (useful for when our kids step heavily on their glasses).

Eyeglasses: Warby Parker or Costco? - Bogleheads.org
Dec 6, 2019 · I was really surprised at the large selection of frames that Costco had, much larger than when I last went about 4 years ago. I went to a Lens Crafters before going to Costco and they had far less inventory which I found shocking plus a ridiculous policy of having to sanitize each frame that you touched and, of course, much higher prices.
Opticians: is there any difference in quality of Costco glasses?

Best place to get eyeglasses / no vision insurance
Mar 18, 2017 · Costco measures IP distance (left and right) and segment height (if you have bifocal/progressives). About $120 for glasses and frames with same Rx as the LensCrafters pair. I ordered a pair of sunglasses from Zenni just to see how they would do. Mid-level polycarb, progressive, non polarized. $83. I can tolerate an "average" seg height in ...

Jun 2, 2015 · The last 5 years I've gone to Costco and paid between $120 and $200 depending on the frame for progressive lenses, once or twice I re-used an old set of frames without a problem.

She noticed immediately that there is a significant yellow line, or band, at the top edge of both lenses, which must be color fringing. It is so distracting that she cannot wear them for night driving at all.
