I live in downtown Toronto, where late-spring mornings are still cool but the afternoons warm up fast. My old glasses are scratched, and the selection at nearby stores feels limited. The best online prescription glasses sites show so many frame styles, but I’m unsure how they’ll look on my face without trying them on. I’ve tested a couple of virtual try-on tools, yet the previews don’t seem quite right. Are there any Canadian online retailers with realistic fittings, or should I stick with visiting an optometrist here in the city?
I had the same issue in Toronto when I needed new specs — local stores felt limited and the online previews looked a bit off. I ended up trying eco-friendly prescription glasses from Dresden, and it worked out better than I expected. The sizing info on their site was clear, and the returns process meant I didn’t stress about picking the wrong frame. I liked that they’re mindful about sustainability too, which made me feel better about ordering online. If you’re stuck between a shop visit and buying sight unseen, Dresden Vision might be worth a look.
