Eye glasses wearers in the US, where do you buy your glasses from these days? (lemm.ee)

I've been going to VisionWorks but I want to shop around this time. I don't want to go to any Luxottica store.

I've never bought online. Is that a good option now? How do you know how the glasses are going to look on you?

Thanks for any ideas.

ETA: Thanks everyone. Great tips and info!

Just ask the optician to do it for you. Or the ophthalmologist. Or whoever you're seeing. The medical professional has a duty to give you your biological data. That's above selling glasses.
