Written by the company

EyeglassesDepot.com started in 2007 as a new department of our retail designer eyeglasses and sunglasses business. Quickly we realized that our customers not only shop for new prescription lenses and new frames, they also ask us the popular question "Can this be fixed?". Tired of telling customers NO, we decided to explore the idea of repair rather then replacement. In late 2007 we remodeled the second floor of our office and hired the staff that today runs our laboratory. Our two lab technicians have combined over 17 years of expert experience in the field of optometry, eyewear repair and eyewear sales.

I had an absolutely terrible experience…

I Have been asked to submit an edited review repeatedly. This company has lied in their response. My original frame was in PERFECT condition. The only issue was. Broken arm needing to be screwed back on. After getting an outrageous estimate to fix, I asked them to return my glasses (a gift from my91 year old Mom) and all of a sudden they could not find my original glasses. They sent a. 42.00 replacement for a 400.00 pair of sunglasses (Maui Jim) I repeat, read all the other horrible reviews and BEWARE!!!!!

I had an absolutely terrible experience with Eye Glass Repair in New Jersey. I sent them my sunglasses for repair, and instead of returning my original glasses, they tried to pass off a completely different pair with my lenses shoved into them. When I confronted them, they first insisted they had sent my original glasses back, but then admitted they had not—and even admitted they didn’t know if they still had them.
To prove my case, I even sent them a picture of me wearing my original glasses. After that, I never heard from them again. Complete frauds.
This business is dishonest, misleading, and untrustworthy. Based on my experience, I would strongly caution anyone against sending their glasses here.
Update after company reply:
Their reply is a complete lie. The face of my glasses was in perfect condition. 1 arm was broken only. When I asked for my glasses back, they said they did not know what happened to them; they must have discarded. This was after changing their story a minimum of 5 times. They NEVER asked for permission to discard. BEWARE of this company.

Dear Elyse,

We’re sorry to hear about your disappointment, but we want to clarify exactly what occurred with your repair.

When we received your Maui Jim sunglasses, the damage was not limited to the arm alone. The face (front) of the frame where the arm connects was also compromised, which made it impossible to simply reattach the arm. In these cases, as part of standard repair practice, the solution is to replace the damaged frame with the exact same model and color and then professionally transfer the customer’s original lenses into it. This ensures your eyewear remains authentic, functional, and wearable.

To be very clear:

Your original lenses were preserved and installed in the replacement frame.

The replacement was the same Maui Jim model number and color as your original frame — not a random or cheaper substitute.

At no point did we discard or keep your eyewear without authorization.

This is how the eyewear repair business works industry-wide: when a frame front cannot be repaired, it is replaced so that the customer can continue using their lenses in the same model frame.

We understand that eyewear can carry great personal and sentimental value, and we regret that this process may not have been fully clear from the beginning. However, we assure you there was no deception involved — only a professional repair using the exact matching frame to restore your glasses.

We are more than willing to share supporting photos and documentation of the process, and we invite you once again to contact us directly at [your contact info] so we can work toward a resolution that gives you peace of mind.

Sincerely,
EyeglassesDepot Inc.

absolute worst company

absolute worst company! sent them a $450 pair of Maui Jims, paid $154 to have the lens replaced (I had glass) but they replaced have ass with plastic ones instead, ruined my frames, I'm pretty sure these were someone else's frames since ours were still brand new, and only had them one month but had an incident that shattered the glass. The ones we received back have a broken arm that will not stay out, they fit extremely loose, and the glass wasn't even in the frame!!!!! I called them and they said send an email, so emailed them and they refuse to fix them! they told me to "take it to your local optical store and have them tighten it up I guess" and as far as fixing the lens "they are not glass anyway” and in the terms and conditions it does state that, that’s my fault on not reading that precisely. They said I could send them back again but it would take longer, and honestly I don’t trust them to send them back at this point! I can provide pics to those curious!

Sometimes, despite our best efforts, there’s simply nothing more we can do to satisfy a customer. In this case, we replaced her lenses exactly as required. By her own admission, we never indicated that the lenses would be glass, and in fact, our website clearly states that glass lenses cannot be cut.

We did not touch the arms of her frames during the lens replacement, nor are the arms related to the lens installation. When she mentioned that one arm was loose, we recommended having it tightened locally for convenience. We also offered to have her send the glasses back so we could inspect and address the issue with the arm at no charge.

Despite these efforts—including offering her a partial refund, which she initially agreed to—she chose to post a negative review.

Use CAUTION with this company

I decided to ship my Maui Jim sunglasses to Eyeglassdepot for minor repairs. They emailed me a prepaid USPS shipping label. I packaged my sunglasses in a Maui Jim container and that inside a box and delivered it to the USPS. about 2 weeks later, not having heard anything from Eyeglassdepot, I sent an inquiry to they responded the two days later stating: "Thank you for your patience regarding your repair order. According to the USPS tracking information, your package was marked as successfully delivered to our mail facility. However, after confirming with our facility team, they have informed us that the package has not yet been received or logged in.
There are a few situations where a package might show as delivered but not be physically received yet, including:
• A scan error or premature delivery scan by USPS
• Delivery to the wrong address or neighbor
• Package left in an unexpected location
• System update delays causing tracking to show delivered before actual receipt
We are closely monitoring the situation and will notify you immediately as soon as the package is located or arrives at our facility. We understand how important this is and appreciate your understanding as we work to resolve this matter."
After another week, and after verifying my package was delivered to them by the USPS I inquired as to the status again with Eyeglassdepot. It is at this point I was told that they do not insure their prepaid shipments to or from them because it is too expensive. Anotherwards, My $325+ sunglasses are just gone... After a couple more email exchanges, they offered to "I can give you these 2 parts to make you a frame". There was no mention of lenses. When I inquired about the lenses, they offered to sell me lenses but after several back & forths, would not verify if they were polarized and glass or not. I've just given up, I question the integrity of such an organization that fails to tell you their "free shipping" isn't insured, denies receiving shipments which the USPS has documentation they did receive, and then offers to sell you replacement parts but won't verify any information about the parts. I will buy a new pair of Maui Jims, rather than pay this company $100+ for unknown style/quality parts.
Use CAUTION with this company... I sadly learned the hard way, I hope you don't as well.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, and please accept our sincerest apologies for the frustration and disappointment this situation has caused. We genuinely understand how upsetting it is to lose a valuable item like your Maui Jim sunglasses, and we regret that your interaction with our team did not meet the level of service you expected—or that we aim to provide.

To clarify, we do rely on USPS tracking scans to confirm deliveries to our facility, and in rare cases, packages marked as “delivered” may not have physically arrived yet or may have been misdelivered. Unfortunately, this appears to be one of those rare and unfortunate cases. We took immediate steps to investigate the issue with our facility team and continued monitoring the situation, but we were ultimately unable to locate the package.

Regarding shipping insurance: while we do offer prepaid shipping as a courtesy to customers, it is correct that the standard labels are not insured unless the customer requests and purchases additional insurance. This policy is stated in our shipping guidelines, but we understand it may not have been clear enough in your case and will take this opportunity to re-evaluate how we communicate this upfront.

As for the parts and lens inquiries, we apologize for any lack of clarity in our communication. We certainly should have been more precise about the lens options, including whether they were polarized or glass, and we regret that this added to your frustration.

While we may not be able to undo the outcome, we truly value your feedback and will use it to improve our service, shipping policies, and communication with future customers. If you would like to discuss this further or reconsider a resolution, please reach out directly to me directly, and we’ll do our best to assist you.

I had a very poor and unprofessional…

I had a very poor and unprofessional experience with Eyeglasses Depot. I posted a review and with 5 minutes had 2 emails and texts messages from 2 different numbers demanding I answer their call (before 6am).

One of the emails said my review is harming their family. My review wasn't emotional; I didnt call out specific people; I didn't use colorful language.

Earlier emails were unprofessional. One just said 'Dun'.

Updates:
5:27am Email - Why would you do this? (Responding to Google Review I posted)
5:32am Email - Its harmful to me ad my family Jessica.
5:41am Email - Please remove the review and lets go our seperate ways. I am the owner
5:42am Email - Pick up the phone I am calling you
5:42am Text - Pick up the phone I am calling you
5:43am Text - Give me a call back
5:56am Email - Let me know once you resolve the review as requested.
8:45am Email - My paralegal is drafting paperwork today that will be served upon you at
8:49am Email - You are going too see the legal results of posting false reviews over nothing and effecting small business.

Thank you for your feedback.

We’re sorry to hear that you felt our communication was unprofessional. We'd like to clarify a few things. The message you received that simply said "Dun" was the result of a simple typo — we meant to write "Done" while asking for a response or confirmation. Unfortunately, before we had a chance to clarify, the review was posted.

We understand the importance of honest reviews, but we also want to highlight how impactful a negative review can be for a small, family-owned business — especially when it stems from a typo or miscommunication rather than the quality of the product or service itself.

We respect your right to share your experience, and we take your concerns seriously. We just ask that in the future, customers consider reaching out directly for clarification before assuming the worst. Small businesses thrive on communication and understanding — and we’re always here to listen.

Worst experience!!

Worst experience!!! Sent in Maui Jim’s to be fixed and replace lenses. After over a month they were returned with the same damaged lenses loose in a box. I was told they accidentally shipped them back to me instead of to the “lab” to be fixed. Also i was told to send them back to be done. I said no and I wanted a refund. They quit answering my emails and calls.

I would go below 1 Star

I would go below 1 Star, if that was an option. Just before X-mas I contacted them about replacing the cracked lens on a pair of Maui Jim Stingrays. They sent me a box & a shipping label to send them my glasses. I was extremely delayed in packing them up with Holiday silliness etc. I quickly began receiving emails several times per day asking if I had sent them yet. When I finally did, I sent them an email that they were on their way. 2 days later I stopped receiving the pestering messages asking if I had sent them (maybe because they received them???). I waited a few days to allow for the repairs before I began asking the Status. I was told that they never received them. I began with the Post Office where I received a 4 page document clearly tracking the progress of the shipment with 36 different stops along the way including their mailbox complete with a picture of the box I sent. They claimed to have Human Kind's only PERFECT Tracking system that has NEVER made a mistake or lost track of a package in their long history in business!! NEVER MADE A MISTAKE EVER? I remain suspicious. I even had this post up months ago & they harassed & bothered me promising to make things right if I take it down. Once the Review was down they returned to their claim of perfection.

Dear Gregory,

We’re genuinely sorry to hear about your experience and understand your disappointment.

We did everything within our power to assist you throughout the process. From the beginning, we promptly sent you a shipping kit and followed up to ensure timely service during a busy holiday season. Once you informed us the glasses had been shipped, we unfortunately never received the package. Despite our best efforts, we were unable to locate it in our system or at our facility.

You provided USPS documentation showing delivery to our mailbox, and we respect that. However, as we explained at the time, the box was not received or signed for by our team. We also shared that we’ve worked successfully with thousands of customers using the same process, and while mistakes with mail can happen, we were transparent about what we could—and could not—confirm on our end.

Regarding the repair itself: We offered a replacement set using OEM Maui Jim parts with high-quality plastic lenses, as glass is no longer available through the manufacturer. We understand that this did not meet your expectations, and for that, we apologize.

We also want to be clear: at no point did we intend to “harass” you. Any outreach was purely an effort to make things right and explore solutions. Once the review was removed, our intentions remained the same—offering support within the limits of what was possible.

Again, we regret that this didn’t end the way you had hoped. If you’d still like to discuss any further resolution, our team remains available to help.

BEWARE! WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER

Sent this "company" two pair of Maui Jims for repair, one with a broken frame, one with scratched lenses. I did not give them the ok to repair and asked that they be sent back and even paid for return shipping. They repaired anyway and threw my old frames away. When they called to discuss the man aggressively came with an attitude when I asked who was calling, things got worse from there. He told me I still needed to pay for my repairs and were not willing to correct their mistake. When I asked for my property back the man told me he could send my lenses back but that's all they're responsible for. The timeline suggests that they knew they were supposed to send the glasses back but did the repairs anyway to collect the money.

Dear Asa,

We’re sorry to hear you were unhappy with your experience. While your frustration is understood, we’d like to clarify that we did everything in our power to resolve the issue promptly and respectfully.

You sent us two pairs of Maui Jim glasses, and our team assessed them based on the issues described. Repairs were initiated as per our standard intake process, which is outlined on our website and confirmed by our service agreement. However, once we learned you no longer wanted the repairs, we took swift action to halt further work and return your items.

We have since resolved the matter by returning your property. USPS tracking confirms delivery of your lenses on June 14, 2025 at 6:25 PM to the address you provided in Magnolia, TX. You may find the tracking at the link below : https://tools.usps.com/go/TrackConfirmAction_input?strOrigTrackNum=9400136208303324848910

Honest Professionalism

No business operates with perfection, how they deal with unexpected issues is what is telling. Two separate issues came up in my order, and both were dealt with appropriately, and with honest professionalism. I appreciated that so much, especially during these crazy times with Trump's nonsense. We in Canada know how the few can negatively impact the many. Empathy, consideration and above all fairness is what we need to hang unto, even in our business transactions.

Don't Expect Your Hard Case Back or Correct Color Repair

I sent them my Maui Jim's in the hard case for a nose piece repair as I'd done directly with MJ a couple times before. Apparently, there's fine print somewhere saying not to do that since the technicians might throw the case away. Mind boggling, but true. They apparently can't keep track of what customers send in or it's too hard to keep cases with the glasses so they just throw the cases away?!? I've traded a couple emails with them and all they do is refer to the "company policy". Oh, and they also put a brown nose piece replacement on my black sunglasses. Horrible service and no concern whatever with customer dissatisfaction. Seems like one and done with them. Unless they change their tune with my last email response to theirs, I STRONGLY recommend avoiding this company at all costs.

Very professional and trustworthy

Very professional and trustworthy. Contacted me about a pair of glasses I bought over a decade ago. I'd barely worn them and they had another costumer who had requested the model I had. They had me send them back (they paid for postage) and gave me store credit. I ended getting 3 pairs of glasses with the store credit they gave me. Had them sent to me in less than a week! Two thumbs up and 5 stars!!
