What to know about Warby Parker
$95 buys frames and lenses
Pricing starts around $95 with single-vision lenses included, so the sticker covers the finished pair rather than a frame you then pay to glaze.
Buying happens before you commit
The Home Try-On program ships five frames free, and hundreds of US and Canadian stores add eye exams and the brand's own Scout contact lenses.
Frames read retro-preppy, mostly acetate
Shapes lean rounded with keyhole bridges in acetate, a minimalist take on Ivy-style optical rather than heavy metal or sport frames.

Started by four Wharton classmates, it grew on a Home Try-On program that ships five frames free, then expanded into hundreds of US and Canadian stores offering eye exams and its own Scout contacts.
