(Source: Glasses.com; Ray-Ban Frames, $170)An online gem for those with less-than-perfect vision, Glasses.com was launched in 2011 by its sight-enhancing predecessor, 1-800-Contacts. The online shop carries frames by brands such as Chloé, Derek Lam, Ralph Lauren and Ray-Ban, all of which Glasses.com fills with free prescription lenses. Browsing is simplified with frames grouped into style categories such as Timeless, Geek Chic and Retro/Vintage. To boot, if you’re in the market for new specs or shades (an extensive selection of prescription and non-prescription sunglasses is available, too) you can see how the pairs you’re considering look on you, thanks to the Glasses.com app.
