11/10/2009: It's the 3rd Anniversary of GlassyEyes! Thanks for your help in making the site *the* online eyeglasses destination. I've enjoyed (nearly) every minute of it.
11/9/2009: The EyeBuyDirect Buy-One-Get-One Year End Sale has been extended until the 15th! A really good deal if you're in need of a couple of basic pairs of eyeglasses.

11/9/2009: Goggles4U has a sale going. Looks like it's at least 20% off -- which is a nice premium on the typical 5%-off rate. Take a look.

Every now and then EyeBuyDirect has a frame on special that I have to talk about -- something unusual, but cool. This is one of those moments.

Altea is a bit on the conservative side in the front, but it's all party in the back -- not unlike a mullet. But let's put all mullet comparisons out of our minds for a moment. The temples are clear but feature a black outline. They're on the longer side (at 140mm), so they'll work for those of us with larger heads too. This is a unique frame, that will look good on everyone -- except, oddly enough, those sporting a mullet.
ALTEA
Altea is on sale until Sunday, July 5th for $10 off.

What does this mean to you? Well, with EBD and their coatings prices, it can mean that you get nearly free UV and AR coatings on a neat looking frame. Toss in the 15% off GlassyEyes discount ("gleyes09") and you get the frames, necessary coatings, AND shipping for just a smidge over $36. Not too shabby!

I don't have anything like this in the collection and am "in for one", as the kids say.

    i've sent links to your site to many...i've used the hong kong store (i'm a -12.00), and 39 for anti-glare reading glasses (over contacts, my best option).

    here's a link i've found helpful:

    great work, thanks!
