Free Home Trial

The Glasses Direct Home Trial service is easy to use. Follow the steps above for how to order.

• Our Home Trial makes buying glasses easier, by allowing you to try up to four pairs and keep them at home for 7 days, for FREE. In this time you’re able to wear them out and about, show them to family and friends, and just get to experience what your potential new frames feel like. This reduces the chances of you having to return or exchange your glasses. Once you’ve decided on the perfect frames, order them on the website. If you don't have your prescription to hand don't worry, you can send it to us later.
• You will be asked to provide your card details, but this is purely for validation purposes. We do a temporary 'active card check' to verify that your account is valid. There needs to be at least £1 in the account for the check to be completed. You will not be charged, however, your bank may show £1 as reserved for a couple of days.
• If you have not found the perfect frames, don’t worry. Simply return your current Home Trial and order another.
• Our Home Trial is currently only available to UK residents.

Our free Home Trial is currently available for over 400 frames, but we are always trying to add more to the selection. You can easily filter out frames on our website to include only the ones you can try at home for free. Click here to discover applicable frames.

We have a few tips to help you be sure you’ve found the right frames:

• Check that the sides are the right length for you.
• Check that they feel comfortable on your nose.
• Get opinions from your friends, family and even colleagues.
• Try on your frames with different outfits.

Returning your free Home Trial is simple. Follow the attached instructions and pop in the post box. Once you receive your home trial, you have 7 days until you need to post it back to us. If you’re unable to return your Home Trial, please contact our customer service team on 01793 746601 who will do their best to help you.
