A Good Thing: Warby Parker


A friend told me about Warby Parker after I mentioned I needed to get a new pair of glasses. What an awesome company! Similar to TOMS, they donate a pair of glasses to someone in need - excellent concept. Cheap prices, amazing selection, and a fast process - I recommend to everyone!


If you choose to do your eyeglass search online, Warby allows you to try on 5 pairs of glasses at home. For free! They send you a return UPS label as well so you literally just need to try on your glasses then drop off the box at a UPS store. Can't get much lazier than that! But they do have several locations in NYC as well as elsewhere in the country - check out a location near you here!

Once you decide on your frame, you let them know via an online form and then you can either give them your prescription or your eye doctor's information. I did the latter.


Within 2 weeks, your glasses arrive in a wonderful glass case and expertly crafted. So very happy. And only 125.00 poorer! Above are my new frames!
