Loliable prescription Glasses on the cheap! (US)

Loliable Glasses on the cheap!

Prescription glasses aren't cheap and in the past there was a post or two about dealing with lolita and glasses. No more being stuck with boring glasses or having them clash or taking them off for pictures!

When I bought my original glasses, they ran about $200 for the cheapest set of frames and lenses, on top of that, being the impulsive person that I am, I bought leopard print frames with purple tint lenses (giirr). Cool for rolling out of bed and going to class (At the time. Boy was I impulsive), but not exactly something to wear to a job interview, much less match with an outfit. Then I found Zenni and glasses went from necessity to accessory. For about $20 shipped, I had a complete prescription glasses set in a stylish frame that I could match with red Bodyline girly note rip off and all the other red and black things I own. It was a snap to order, but I had to get my prescription and PD first.


Much better! For that price, I could buy new glasses in every color, for every outfit. The only caveats are you have to get your prescription from your doctor (required by law to be released to you when asked) and your PD, or pupillary distance. Sometimes the optometrist will measure it for free, but it's not required on a prescription. You can also measure at home, but it takes some practice. You also don't get to try them on, but if you already have an idea of what to look for from a previous pair, it's not too bad.

Here is the link to the main page. It has pages covering every aspect of ordering, save how to self measure PD. A quick google search will have that information as well.

Not all of the glasses are loliable, obviously, but they have some nice designs that could work into an outfit better than the bland ones at the optometrist and give room for color coordination on the cheap.

Here are some of the ones I found
