This review and giveaway was made possible by iConnect Influencer Management and Glasses.com. I was compensated for my participation in this campaign, but all opinions are 100% mine.
Recently, my 7th grader found out he needed glasses. Both his sister and my husband wear glasses as well. With three people in our family wearing glasses, we tend to buy them online for convenience and price.
For my son’s glasses, we chose Glasses.com. But, this isn’t just another place to buy prescription glasses. Glasses.com has partnered with OneSight, a nonprofit that’s commited to ending the global vision care crisis with their Share Your Sight program. With every purchase from Glasses.com, a pair of glasses will be donated to a person in need.
Glasses.com has become my favorite place to purchase glasses. They have a phone app that allows you to make a 3-D image of yourself so you can see exactly what you look like with the frames. It’s so helpful in finding the perfect pair.
With frames over $160, lenses are included in the price, and shipping and returns are free. Plus, if you need adjustments, Glasses.com has a deal with LensCrafters where you can get them adjusted for free.
There are so many benefits to buying your glasses from Glass.com, but my favorite is the OneSight program.
Did you know that over a billion people lack access to an eye exam or a pair of glasses? Clear vision can change someone’s life, and together we can help solve this problem! OneSight Vision Clinics have helped more than 9 million people in 41 countries, and they have established 8 sustainable Vision Centers operating now to provide permanent access to vision care to over 2 million people.
After purchasing your glasses, you will receive an email acknowledging your participation in the OneSight campaign that will encourage you to share via email or social media with a “double donation” link.
Here’s how it works:
Glasses.com is committed to helping OneSight provide ongoing vision care access to those in need around the world. Frames from Glasses.com are shipped to local and global OneSight visions clinics where volunteer opticians give patients free eye exams. They help patients select frames, and the frames are fitted and prescription lenses are made the same day. Every patient walks out with a new pair of glasses!

It’s great that glasses.com donates a pair of glasses to someone in need for every pair purchased. Your son’s glasses are so stylish and I know it feels good knowing you’ve also helped a person in need get the glasses they deserve.
That is such a wonderful idea! I LOVE that they are helping those in need who need better eye sight.
This is wonderful, I love that glasses.com offers glasses at an affordable rate for families. Love it.
This sounds great for any family that wears glasses. They are so expensive and without vision insurance, it can be really scary!
My son just found out this weekend that he will need glasses and he is not all that thrilled about it. I will have to check into what they offer at glasses.com. I’m gonna let him pick out whatever he wants as long as insurance covers it.
I absolutely love the idea of glasses.com giving a pair to someone when you purchase a pair! Great choice also! I love raybans!
I used to wear glasses until i reached 18 from 5 years old. I woke up one day and didn’t need them anymore. It’s kinda crazy, but glasses.com is super awesome for donating to those who can’t afford a pair.
I wish I would have started ordering my glasses online years ago – it saves so much money. These frames look great on him, very suiting.
I need a brand new pair of glasses but i think i need to get a new prescription. I think it’s cheaper to order glasses online
I actually just ordered a pair of glasses online yesterday! Ordering online is so easy of convenient. Plus, I love what Glasses.com is doing to help give aback with OneSight!
This reminds me that I haven’t had an eye exam in years. The app feature is a total win, we all want to know what frames look best with our face shape.
I love Glasses.com. We have saved a ton of money just shopping with them for all of our family.
Those are great looking glasses. I think my husband bought a pair of his from the same website.
You had me at them donating a pair of glasses for every pair purchased…what a fantastic incentive! Who can say no to that??
They have a lot of good selection of reading glasses. Plus i like how they support the community through donations. Once we in the market again upgrade our glasses I definitely will consider them .
This is great that glasses.com donates a pair of glasses. Really love this!!
that is a great idea to buy from glasses.com and help donate glasses to those in need! My son wears glasses so I’ll definitely check this out… thanks for sharing this info : )
