I ordered a pair of glasses with similar measurements to my current frames, but when I received them, the lenses looked really thick. Luckily, Coastal has a great return policy, and they were re... See more

I had to return another pair because the other pairs merge to small. Coastal was great about helping me offer this one and it’s perfect! The yellow is very subtle and the fit is snug so I don’t worry... See more

Coastals's Promise

Steam rising off fresh coffee. Snow on the mountains. Your best friend’s smile. There are so many amazing things to see in the world, and we want to make sure everyone has access to eyewear that helps them see their world clearly. That’s why we’ve created a platform that makes it easy to get contact lenses, glasses, and sunglasses online.

Our Story

Our story begins in the year 2000, when we became one of the first ever retailers to offer eyewear online. We’ve always been ahead of the curve and have since grown to become one of the biggest (and the best) providers of glasses, sunglasses, and contact lenses in the world. Today, we help people from the west coast of California to the east coast of Australia get the eyewear they need to hit important deadlines, watch the sun set on the horizon, and see all the amazing things waiting just around the corner.

Our Mission

When we say that we believe everyone has access to the eyewear they need, we truly mean everyone. That’s why we launched Our Mission. For every pair of glasses purchased through our Buy One, Give One initiative, we donate a pair to someone in need. We also work with organizations across the world to help provide education, eye screenings, and access to eye care in communities near and far.

Our Products

What are you looking for? We’ve got it. Designer and budget-friendly, retro and modern, simple and statement-making, we offer eyewear options to suit everyone. Our selection of contact lenses includes daily, weekly, and monthly varieties from the leading brands and new, innovative labels alike. In the glasses and sunglasses cabinet you’ll find 2,000+ styles, including frames starting from just $9 alongside the world’s favourite designer labels including Ray-Ban, Michael Kors, Oakley, and more. Our Virtual Try On tool allows you to try frames on using the camera on your mobile phone or computer.

Coastal's Company Guarantees

We want to be the place you go when it's time for contacts, glasses, or sunglasses, which is why we’re determined to make it as easy for you as possible to get what you need. When you shop at Coastal.com, you can rely on: 24/7 support via phone, live chat, and email. The fastest delivery, with same-day options for contact lenses. Low Price guarantee, so if we don’t already beat it, we’ll match it.

I recommend letting customers know if their order will come in multiple shipments or not. I gotten my contact lenses and wondered where my glasses were. My glasses came a week later.

We're sorry it created such a poor experience. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us, if you have any further questions, through Live Chat or at 1-866-414-2326. -Team Coastal

The glasses are good but the temple sections quite a bit thinner and less rigid than I expected so hope they turn out to be durable enough. They were crafted in a reasonable amount of time and a cost effective alternative.

Have had better service in the past.

I wasn’t happy that they only sent half the order but didn’t let me know. I had to call to find this out. My second order took longer than stated. Website had some issues with ordering for two people at the same time.

This is the second or third pair of glasses I have ordered from Coastal. The delivery was sooner than expected which was a nice surprise. All is well with the fit and script. And it's wonderful to realize for every pair sold you give a pair to a needy person. Nothing but positive feedback. Thank you.
