Where To Buy Prescription Glasses

My glasses broke and I need to replace them. I usually go to Lens Crafter, but they have gotten so expensive. I've gotten glasses at Cohen's Optical too. I don't wear them very often and don't want to spend an arm and a leg on them. I know Sears, Macys, and Walmart are places to go. Does anyone know if they are good? Maybe someone can suggest a place I haven't thought of.TIA

Wal-Mart or even $39 glasses.com. Vision Works also.

I've used Shopko twice and they did a good job. Good selection of frames and they do have sales.

Definitely Costco. Saved at least half of what other places have charged.

I buy glasses from my local Optometrists. She has lots of different price ranges and the quality is excellent too.

If you don't need the exacting grinds that come from top opticians, any place running a sale, Costco, Walmart, JCP and on and on.

I don't have a Costco membership but do have a BJ'S. Do they sell glasses too?

I think you can buy glasses from Costco without a membership. You should call them and ask them.
