I've been going to VisionWorks but I want to shop around this time. I don't want to go to any Luxottica store.

I've never bought online. Is that a good option now? How do you know how the glasses are going to look on you?

Thanks for any ideas.

ETA: Thanks everyone. Great tips and info!

I’ve been looking for a new website. I need XL frames as I have a wide face and it’s almost impossible to find decent frames.

Just checking the suggestions in this thread. https://www.39dollarglasses.com/eyeglasses/extra_wide

Seems to be some of the larger cheap frames I've seen around

On eyebuydirect.com, you can filter the frames by XL (and they'll give you the exact measurements as well). I also have a wide face and have found frames that work for me on this site.

I'm getting a few extra wide frames to try for free from Warby Parker.
