Horrible quality
Horrible quality. Not only did they drill my glasses unevenly, temple snapped after 1.5 years of normal wear. My last titanium glasses lasted 7 years. Huge waste of $

Reply from Payne Glasses LLC
We’re sorry to hear your frame broke after approximately a year and a half of use.
While we understand your frustration, lightweight rimless drill-mount designs are generally more delicate than full-rim frame constructions and can be more susceptible to wear over time.
For customers prioritizing maximum durability, we typically recommend full-rim frame styles over rimless mount designs.
Eyewear longevity can vary significantly depending on usage, adjustments, handling, and overall wear conditions. While we understand your previous pair lasted much longer, 7 years would generally be considered unusually long for daily-wear eyewear.
Our Optician Team will also reach out directly if there is anything we may still be able to assist with from a frame only replacement standpoint.

Wow—fastest delivery ever!
Wow! I placed my order on Friday and received my new glasses on Tuesday. That’s the fastest turnaround I’ve ever had for ordering glasses online. It may help that I live in Pennsylvania, where the company is apparently based 😅 Between that and the low price, this can’t be beat! You just earned a new faithful customer!
