Excellent frames, but watch out for laboratory QC errors (fixed by local optician)
I recently ordered a pair of progressive glasses from Lensmart. When they arrived and I first tried them on, my vision was completely distorted and everything appeared heavily slanted. To figure out what was wrong, I took them to a local optician at Vision Essentials (Kaiser Permanente). They verified that while Lensmart had made the lenses to the correct prescription, the laboratory had installed the right lens incorrectly. It was rotated 90 degrees out of alignment, causing the progressive corridor to run vertically (putting the distance zone on the right and reading on the left) instead of horizontally (distance on top, reading on the bottom). Fortunately, the local optician was able to physically rotate and correct the lens position in the frame for me, and the glasses are perfect now. While I really like the frames and the actual lens quality, Lensmart needs to improve their quality control checks before shipping to ensure lenses aren't misaligned and unwearable upon arrival.
