NEW ? Where are your offices?
BidmyGlasses does not have doctor offices. We help optometrists fill open eye exam appointments. In return for booking one of these special appointments we ask the doctor to provide a special price and a coupon toward the purchase of eyeglasses or contact lens. Each of the doctors have their own offices. You can see pictures of the doctor’s office, reception area, and showroom by clicking on any doctor’s picture. If you can make one of these special appointments then you can save a lot of money.
Do I have to buy eyeglasses from this doctor?
No. The optometrist is required to provide you the corrective lens prescription with your paid eye exam. You may use the prescription information as you wish. The optician in the doctor’s office can help you more than you might expect. The optician will help you, at no charge, with eyeglasses that complement the shape of your face, your complexion, and your hair color. Then you’ll see fashion options that fit your style. You will learn about new lens technology that helps you at work, home, and with your hobbies. If you are not comfortable then you can use your corrective lens prescription anywhere you choose. With BidmyGlasses many doctors provide a discount toward your new eyeglasses. When you return to pick up your new eyeglasses the optician will make final adjustments so you have the perfect fit. You’ll be wearing your new eyeglasses every day, every waking hour, so get the best fit when you are at the doctor’s office.
Can someone out bid me for the eye exam?
BidmyGlasses is not seller’s auction like eBay®. The doctors tell us their open and available eye examinations. The doctors offer special prices to fill open exam times and coupon towards eyeglasses. When you select and pay online that time becomes your appointment and nobody else can buy that date and time.
Why do I have to pay online? Why can’t I just pay at the eye doctor’s office?
These special discounted prices and coupon values are not available at the eye doctor’s office. The eye doctor cannot afford to offer these discounts on every eye exam. We work with the eye doctor to fill unused eye exam times and in return BidmyGlasses is able to offer special savings. If you are not satisfied for any reason with the eye doctor, eye exam, or the service then BidmyGlasses will refund the amount paid to BidmyGlasses.
What if I cannot keep my appointment?
These special prices and coupon savings are available for this date and time because we help fill the doctor’s schedule. 100% refund with 24-hour advance change or cancellation notice to Support@BidmyGlasses.com or call 281-940-7001. Otherwise, call and we’ll work with you.

What if the doctor doesn’t keep the appointment?

Do I have to pay anything at the doctor’s office?
