SmartBuyGlasses vs. Coastal Glasses
Benefits
SmartBuyGlasses offer fashionable frames for men, women and kids. They have an extensive range of designer brands in their portfolio, as well as their more affordable, own-label collection. They also ship for free internationally, no matter where you’re located in the world, and have a 100-day return policy.
Coastal.com produce an extensive range of own-label and designer eyeglasses with a virtual try-on feature. Their base contact lenses are impact-resistant and have a number of different coating options.
Drawbacks
SmartBuyGlasses is a one-stop online shop for eyewear, as well as a hub of resources for glasses and contact lens wearers; however, their wealth of information and product choice can feel a little overwhelming at times.
It can take up to 16 days for your new frames to be delivered to you according to Coastal’s shipping policy. It can take even longer for your new contact lenses to arrive as they also have to go through an initial verification process.
Our Verdict
By offering top designer frames at higher price points in addition to stylish own-label frames at more affordable prices, there truly is something for every taste and budget at SmartBuyGlasses. The wide range of choice is phenomenal, and the fact that they provide a number of useful resources for glasses and contact lens wearers (including a virtual try-on feature) is an added bonus. The sheer amount of styles can feel overwhelming at times, but the site makes shopping with the company as easy and straightforward as possible by offering different filter and sorting options.
Coastal offer a variety of options for your next pair of eyeglasses or lenses. Each pair of frames is available in different colours and sizes, which creates an abundance of choice, and the virtual try-on feature is super handy. Stylish and affordable, you can’t go wrong with Coastal eyewear - you just have to be prepared to endure their long processing and shipping times.
