In process of resolution for incorrectly supplied lenses

Following an incorrectly supplied set, SmartBuy Glasses has reached out to me and offered fair and reasonable alternatives and compensation to rectify the error. I am currently in the process of finalising the issue. I will update my review to 5-Stars once the matter has been fully resolved. At this point I can highly recommend the company, based on my experience thus far.

Good quality glasses

Good quality glasses, nice case. Didn’t like different people responding every email asking for the same thing but it got sorted out. Definitely worth it.

Good value...great range

Excellent range of frames that offer good value. Lense ad ons are pricey but offset by the frame and overall well worth it. Not to mention the excellent lead time.
I would definitely buy again.
