Best Specialty Prescription Glasses Online: JINS Eyewear
This Tokyo-based company provides low-bridge and adjustable fits (in addition to conventional fits) for customers who have trouble keeping their frames in place on their noses.
"The eyewear industry has traditionally catered to faces with higher and narrower nose bridges," a spokesperson from Jins eyeglasses explains. Nose bridges that are lower, broader, or flatter than average can find a good fit in our low bridge fit frames. They're contoured so that they won't slide off your nose or lay awkwardly on your cheekbones.
Frames without prescription lenses cost $50, while those with single-vision (or reader) lenses cost between $90 and $290. Transitional lenses and special tints cost an additional $120, and progressive lenses cost an additional $120. Lenses designed to filter out blue light range in price from $30 to $60. Both the Screen Daily Use and Screen Heavy Use lenses block 75% of harmful blue light. Finally, the field to input your prescription appears after you place your order, unlike at some other online glasses merchants.
Best for:
- Men and women
- People with low-bridge or hard-to-fit noses
- Heavy screen users, thanks to a lens option that blocks 40% of blue light
