As a visually impaired girlie, I’ve always HATED the terrible options for glasses that the generic eye doctor had to offer. I mean, really, not everyone wants a pair of old readers! I only started using my glasses a few years ago, and contacts have never really been my thing. Plus, I think glasses can be the CUTEST accessory to any outfit when styled right. I have always been someone who looks for the cutest options available, and for a while, I thought that there was no hope. Through falling for scam TikTok ads and desperate Temu scrolls, I have finally cultivated the ultimate list of the top three, college-friendly websites to order a cute pair of frames!
3. ZeeLool
In third place, I’m starting with Zeelool. I hear about this brand online a lot, and it was actually one of the first places I got glasses from online. The prices? SO LOW — like lower than my grades freshman year of high school. Their best sellers go for $7 each, and depending on your lenses, the price goes up to $15-$20, which is refreshing to see when shopping for back-to-school on a budget. Zeelool is a super fashion-forward brand. Plus, for my content creator girls, they have a great ambassador program that’s open to the public and gets you some great sales depending on your involvement! So if you are looking for trendy glasses and great prices, Zeelool would definitely be the first place to look for some staples in your rotation.
2. Lens Mart Online
My mom is a fellow glasses-wearer. She got her fair share of glasses from this site, and she SWEARS by them. Lensmart has an amazing reputation online, so if you are ever looking for some first-hand reviews, TikTok and Instagram are great resources! Lensmart has a wide selection of glasses for all genders and age groups, and their prices are? Literally unreal. But don’t be fooled: lenses can add up fast, so be conscious of what you need and don’t need when it comes to your glasses. They do a great job of helping you save with their unique “Points Mall,” where customers can earn points by shopping and leaving reviews, and redeem the points through coupons. This site is definitely a great option for my girls who love big frames or cool patterns. My mom raves about their quality and how durable they feel for such a cheap price. I would definitely put Lensmart on your list of websites to hit up.
1. FIRMOO
My elite go-to, my rock, my number one brand to buy glasses: Firmoo. When I say they have everything, I mean everything. I recommend this website to all of my friends (even the ones who don’t need glasses), and they all agree. These glasses EAT, and best of all, there is almost ALWAYS a sale. Their BOGO deals (buy one get one free), are my personal favorite because who doesn’t love a free pair of glasses? In terms of shipping, they are seriously one of the easiest and quickest websites I’ve ever tried. They are super transparent about when and how your order will be delivered. My collection of glasses right now is so big, and it’s full of Firmoo! Plus, they have amazing deals for first-time shoppers. Try it out, and if you hate them, they are cheap anyway! I seriously doubt you won’t like what you find here. Great prices, amazing quality, and the cutest eyewear you will ever see!
Firmoo is the number one in my book, but the other options I listed are just as great. I would love to see the girls rocking their cute glasses from wherever they can find them! I think eyewear is such an underrated genre of fashion, and I hope to be able to help the girls find their new favs with this list. Glasses that make you feel good and don’t break the bank will always be the move, especially in college. So don’t miss out on these brands — from girl to girl, these are it!
Final Thoughts
Some final things to know about shopping for glasses: it takes a while, naturally. I am sure we have all been to an eye doctor appointment and had to wait years for them to finally come in. Online isn’t much different, BUT, all of these brands make an effort to get each package there as fast as possible and at an affordable rate, so don’t worry about shipping times. Glasses naturally take a while, but I promise it will be worth the wait. That feeling of finally finding that one pair of glasses you know you will wear every day is so refreshing. Everyone should have access to a cute pair of frames, and online shopping is making that so much easier! I hope this list gives you some great options on wear to shop for your next everyday pair!
