The biggest problem we were having when looking locally is that none of the brick & mortar shops in our area carry eyeglass frames small enough for an infant/toddler. We found frames at Zenni Optical that were not only sized right, but were made of titanium memory metal and featured the wrap-around tips on the earpieces. Being 2 years old, you can only imagine that how he's put those frames to the test — and so far, they're still in one piece! We had the lenses validated by a local optician and they're exactly as prescribed. And for $35 shipped, we couldn’t be happier. Now if we could just get the kiddo to leave them on… We hadn’t discovered Ira’s site before doing so, but last month, we bought glasses online for our 2 year old son.

Overall, I bought a pair of reading glasses with lenses and it cost $69.00 in total- way cheaper than the usual $400 for my glasses- and the frames were trendy too- I got the Fabianne in bronze. Definitely online shopping is the way to save bucks.
