Buying your glasses online can seem like a strange idea because you cannot try each individual style on – but with a few tips – you’ll find the entire process so much easier. Shopping for specs is nerve wracking, basically you want to be able to see – but ultimately, you want to look fantastic! So how do you go about it?

First and foremost make sure that you have your prescription to hand. Also, and this is important, make sure you have one piece of vital information: your pupil distance – your optician will have this distance number but they don’t normally write it on the prescription – so you’ll need to ring them, or if you would like to work it out for yourself then we have some really useful advice for you right here.

Now you’ve got all the technical information you can browse the site.

The majority of people will stick to a tried and tested style when they buy online, they know the style, the designer and the colours that suit them – this is a good idea if you want to make sure you buy a pair of specs that are perfect first time.

However, if you do fancy trying out a new style or colour – buying online is a great opportunity to do it – the costs are so competitive – that you could get a pair that are completely different to your usual style, that are perfect for an evening out or a party, without breaking the bank and you will have a pair for special occasions.

To give you some idea of hair colour and spectacle colour choice we have devised a guide to help you make a decision – take a look at it here.
