How to Save on Glasses

Jan 12th 2017

Glasses and contacts can get expensive. Prescriptions only last so long, contacts have to be reordered, and glasses sometimes break. It’s entirely reasonable for anyone to want ways to save on their glasses and prescriptions. Here are some suggestions to help you save on glasses:

Get Vision Insurance

It may seem too simple or obvious, but it is quite common for people not to concern themselves with vision insurance—they are mostly concerned with affording general health insurance. But, vision insurance is often not expensive; it is quite easy to save for it. There are plenty of reliable vision insurance providers, which means you can get quotes from as many as you need to do effective research. Choose someone affordable and reliable, and who will give you all the benefits you need to keep up your prescriptions. And, make sure your optometrist accepts it, too.

Buy from Online Retailers

Many people ask why glasses and lenses are so expensive. The answers are not always satisfactory. However, if you consider some slightly alternative sources for your needs, you can not only find discounts that make those brand names far more affordable, but other options that are as well-made as the expensive brands. They may even make owning more than one pair possible.

Set Money Aside

Save the way that you save for other things in your life. Every time you set money aside for your life savings, vacation savings, and other needs and wants, set some aside just for your prescription. Before you know it, you’ll have more than enough for what you need.

Avoid Unnecessary Extras

Don’t succumb to the pressure to add a lot of extras to your lenses, or buy more expensive frames. Go in knowing exactly what you want and need. If you feel your lifestyle or prescription really warrants a more expensive type of lens, then go for it. But, don’t do it just because a salesperson says it’s best. Do your research and save on glasses; don’t spend more than you must.

Helga G. - Speert Comb #16

Handmade European Comb

I love this comb! It's perfect for long hair, and the teeth are far apart enough that they don't tear out hair like small combs or brushes. Highly recommend.
