New School Year, New Glasses

Over the summer, I got my eyes re-checked and lo-and-behold, they've gotten worse (well just a tiny bit). Sitting in front of the computer all day, studying definitely takes a toll on our eyes. With that said, I had to get new glasses and decided to try out Eyebuydirect.com 

Eyebuydirect is an online shop for glasses and sunglasses, which you can get with or without prescriptions. They have a very wide price range, so you can definitely find something within your budget. Additionally, they have the RFLKT line which is their premium line and when you purchase from that line, they donate $2 to local charities of their choice. 

I went with the style called Nostalgia from the RFLKT line and it looks like this:

These were definitely something I would not have gone for immediately, but I wanted something a little different. I'm still getting used to them, but I really like them so far. I waited about less than 2 weeks (~ 10 days) and got them in the mail. I also opted for an additional coating called EBD Blue which is supposed to help prevent eyestrain when looking at digital screens (phone, tablet, computer screen, etc). Since I'm looking at screens all day, I figured it would be a great benefit. 

Lastly, I LOVE that I was able to save because Eyebuydirect pretty much always has a deal going on. If you're interested in buying prescription, or even non-prescription eyewear you can use my code: IFTNGVRAD3 for $10 off! Or you can use this link to take you directly to the site and the discount will be automatically applied. They have a 14 day guarantee so if you don't love it or decide to go with a different pair, you can return or exchange them!
