ZENNI OPTICAL TRY ON HAUL, COLLECTION AND REVIEW | KRISTEN MARIE

[@charleskriner6541]

Thanks for sharing your Zenni haul. One of the better haul videos IMHO. I like that you demo'd ordering options, pupillary distance and showed frame styles with and without nosepads. The aviator frames you didn't like, I think might've fit better if the nosepads were adjusted to lay wider apart so they rested more softly on your nose. Finally, for pupil distance, there's a free app called GlassesOn that is really easy to use and is accurate. Zenni actually incorporates the technology into their site these days (2022) when you measure PD during the ordering process. In any case, thanks for the great video.

I love the way you present yourself! Your personality and confidence, the way you speak! The quality of your videos are so clean and professional. Hope you upload soon again!

Thanks for this video I’m tired of wearing contacts . I was really interested in the blue light blocking lens . I got the clear ones they seem like they’re gonna be my favorite

I just orderd the square light pink pair tonight and it's coming with 1.61 photochromic lense and anit scratch uv protection oil resistant

[@JuanHerrera-pf6hc]

Its 2023 and I was wondering if you ever got more glasses and how did these hold up ?

[@kristenbrasil]

Great question! These all held up very well. My prescription changed though so I don't wear them and plan to donate them. I learned that a slimed down collection is much easier to manage too. I did repurchase Translucent Round Glasses #7818623 in my updated prescription and wear them every day! I got 1.67 Blokz Photochromic - Gray so they tint darker when I am outside in the sun.

[@EileenE_Qbn]

What?!?! My vision changes every 3-6 months because of my lupus. I have 9 month old glasses because I can’t afford a new pair of glasses! 😭😭

[@kristenbrasil]

Eile Qbn try Zenni! They start at $7 with prescriptions and are legit the best! My mom wants to order too haha 😂

[@EileenE_Qbn]

OMG! I’m blind but I am going full force ALL in!

[@juicy1598]

All you need is a new prescription, the glasses are super cheap on Zenni

[@Jayariee]

Also in the event you continue to buy in store remember you can ask to change the lens and keep the frame. I did that for a number of years when i couldn't find a frame i loved. Not sure if zenni does the same

[@Ben-dz1ix]

Does your eyesight keep getting worse? Have you looked into Reduced Lens Therapy to improve your vision? It's not good to be really high like above -5.00 or -6.00. It increases the risk for more complications that may require surgery.

[@colleenmcnally9418]

Omg the red ones look soooo good on you

[@imm311]

great video! God bless!

[@crystalsykes4116]

Hi , thank you for being so informative. One question, Do you know if they offer progressive lens?

[@kristenbrasil]

Crystal Sykes thank you so much! They do actually! When you select your prescription type, progressive (no line multi-focal) is an option.

[@hdrabba]

your videos are awesome! You should try the higher index, it thins your lense and makes the shrinking of your eyes less noticeable (i have the same problem)

[@kristenbrasil]

Thank you! I am going to order more soon. Do you think there is a big difference between 1.61 and 1.67? I normally go for 1.61 but your comment has me thinking I should go for the higher index! Thank you!

[@hdrabba]

KRISTEN MARIE huge difference and also be conscious of the width of the glasses (it depends on how wide your face is) get glasses that are not wider than your face it’s harder to see the shrinkage and 1.67 is a thinner lens so there’s way less distortion. My prescription is -6 for reference. If your prescription is higher go one notch above what zenni suggests and always get oleophobic coating instead of the basic scratch coating (game changer)

[@soundmanpt]

@@kristenbrasil I'm actually a retired optician and can answer the lens thickness question for you as well as others. I saw that your prescription 3 years ago was Right eye -2.50 -1.75 92 / Left eye -3.50 -1.75 99 . So you do have a rather strong prescription when you include your astigmatisms. But any type of full frame you should be fine with just the 1.61 "high index" lens option. If you were to ever get a very thin wireframe, semi-rimless or rimless type frame then you may want to consider going with the 1.67 thickness in your glasses. If you were to ever get a rather bold plastic framed pair of glasses you could even just get the free lens option of 1.56 in your glasses. In other words the thicker the frame the less lens thickness is seen.

[@nealeburgess6756]

You look great in nearly all of your glasses. The small aviators not good. Larger pair were OK. Not my favourite, but still nice. The only ones I was not too fond of was the big red ones. Just a little over the top! You are so pretty. Love your bold eyebrows and lovely dark eyes. I am interested in how you do your lighting? Almost no reflection showing on the lenses, but just a little sparkle in your pupils. I don't think I have ever seen a glasses wearer with such good lighting on their video. For sure, I have seen plenty using ring lights. Usually looks awful with specs. Maybe that is an idea for a future video?

[@diva1675]

I need an eye glass holder to keep up with them.

[@June51212]

I love your video! I think we are all like you. Like potato chips, can’t eat just one! I think what I would like to ask you is. The box is wonderful that you keep them all in and organized. Can you let us know where you purchased it? Keeps everything so organized. Love the way you have them all set up. Wish I knew about these glasses years ago. My round pair is coming. Says shipped two days ago! Can’t wait. Your glasses box? Thank you.

Do you find the Blokz lenses to be more reflective than the regular ones, granted that both have anti-reflective coating?

[@mikeberry1890]

Just wondering if they offer microthins or ultra thin lenses my prescription calls for a thick lense which I always order the thin so I dont look like a mad sientist

[@kristenbrasil]

Mike Berry I think you should look at the 1.74 index high lenses! I am the same way and use the 1.61 high index.

High index gives me really bad migraines so I just stick with polycarbonate lenses from Walmart. Even at Walmart I spend $200

[@miguelplascencia1798]

Yeah everytime I get new glasses I get kinda dissy I get 1.67 my rx is 8.50 and 7.25, I get my glasses at costco and paid 260 for 2 pairs dude one pair are regular glasses with all the bells and whistles(polished edges, anti reflective coding, and HD vision). And the other pair is a pair of rayban looking glasses and I got them polarized with all the bells and whistles.

[@kristenbrasil]

ManCave TV I know what you mean! if I don’t get high index I can’t physically close the glasses because the lenses are so thick haha! I have a pair of ray bans that I can’t put in a case because of it! Try out the polycarbonate from Zenni! You can get like 6 pairs for the price of 1!

In your opinion, do you think the it’s worth the extra $29.95 for the 1.61 Blokz high index lens. Any major differences whether physically or visually between that and the free lens? Other than the blue light blocking of course.

[@kristenbrasil]

Richard Sarabia sorry for the delay! I should probably put my YT notifications on. Between the free mid index and the 1.61 blokz, the quality of the lens is crisper and thinner for sure! I hope this helps!

[@briannapatrie3485]

Mine are so expensive, girl I’m jealous I pay 130 just for one zenni pair and 1000 at a regular eye glass place ! I love zenni I’ve been using them for 3 years now , glasses are so expensive especially when you need them every year when insurance only pays every two years

[@NormanF62]

Frames are reasonably priced nearly everywhere you look but the lens upgrades drive the cost up. Thinner lenses, premium antireflective coatings and photochromatic add ons can turn cheap glasses into premium ones. If your prescription doesn’t change much they’re a good value but if your vision keeps getting worse, its probably better to hold costs down. If you keep glasses for several years, spending more may be justified. If your prescription value keeps getting increased, probably not.
