Rachel, Sheffield

Score 10.0/10

+ Great design that i can't find in high street shops, and for such a strong prescription the lenses don't look thick at all.

- They seem to steam up very easily, more so then any other glasses i've had!

Score 8.0/10

+ Bish, bash, bosh - what you see is what you get at a great price...

- I probably wouldn't buy my 'for best' specs at Glasses Direct but reading/second pair sunglasses, deffo. Also explaining to the (very nice) optician that I wasn't going to buy specs after he had given me an eye test was toe-curling...

+ Love them! People call them my Ronnie Barkers and i love it. I got them to suit my fashion style and they work really well, they also make my features smaller due to them being larger, great purchase!

- I have a small face and really wanted big thick black glasses so sometimes when i look down the slide a little bit but thats expected, i purchased them more for the style then comfort.

+ The glasses arrived reasonably quickly and the staff were very helpful. The styles available were modern and varied.

- The arms of the glasses are very loose and will need attention almost one month after purchase.

+ They do look good, and are a very good price.

- They are twisted, in several ways, and just don't sit straight.

Emily, West Midlands

Score 10.0/10

+ Quite fashionable i think. Cheap enough to just buy for fashion and not have to worry about keeping them for years. Feel sturdy and hard wearing! Dont think they will break very easily.

- Only bad point is that they are quite loose fitting around my head... but maybe mine is just smaller than i thought.

Score 10.0/10

+ I bought these for my daughter and as you see from the above scores, she is very pleased with them. They are a very fashionable (dare I say "geeky-chic"!) shape. She has had lots of positive comments about them (even from strangers who have asked her wheere she got them from).

- Nothing

paul, sussex

Score 8.0/10

+ strong frame, excellent lenses, good service

- very tight fitting around ears as if they are designed for women, will need some tweaking to obtain a comfortable fit. colour almost black, not tortoiseshell (although I was expecting this after reading other reviews)
