I wear eyeglasses – everyone knows that. I get complimented frequently on my main pair of specs, a fancy red/black/blue set of Armani frames that totally cost an arm and a leg. Fortunately they were a gift for my mother. While having unique glasses is great and garners a lot of positive attention, paying hundreds of dollars for them isn’t always the best. I mean, attention certainly has a price… but everything has its limits.

Recently I was told about this post that discusses Zenni Optical and their extremely inexpensive eyeglasses. How cheap? Prescription glasses start at $8 and go up to about $40. Crazy talk!

Sure, you can’t get Armani glasses like mine from them, but seriously – $8.00! Most of us are constantly looking for a bargain. You can find some frames that look just as good as the designer names but cost a tiny bit of the price. It’s definitely possible with Zenni. If you’re in the market for some new specs but have a tight budget like most of us, give them a look. Bifocal lenses and all those fancy coatings are also available for a slightly additional price. You’re guaranteed to not have to spend $500 to get yourself a nice pair of glasses.
