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 pretty much purchased glasses exclusively from Zenni for the last 8 years or so. They have frames that every level, but they're cheap enough that you can just try different frames till you find the ones you want. I'm pretty cheap, so I order the $8 frames. And now I've settled on a style I like and I just reorder it every time. So I've got a drawer full of zenni glasses now.

Being inexpensive is a good thing, that way I can have throw away glasses for trips and backups and backups and backups. And an extra pair for the car and an extra pair for the other car. Cheap is amazing
