Discovering Vooglam: My Eyewear Journey

When I scroll through Instagram and Facebook, I’m usually just relaxing and escaping the world—not looking for frames. But Vooglam’s ads kept catching my eye, especially as I thought about how expensive my current frames were. It felt inconvenient to have only one pair. If something happened, like it had in the past, I’d be stuck without glasses. I started researching Vooglam by watching reviews on TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram, and they all seemed remarkably positive.


Taking the First Step: Testing Vooglam’s Frame Quality

Curious but cautious, I decided to try two non-prescription frames to see what the hype was about. When they arrived, I was pleasantly surprised by the excellent quality. Inspired by this, I went to my optometrist to get my prescription updated.


A Seamless Experience for User-Friendly Ordering

Ordering with my prescription was easy. I have apraxia of speech, which can make navigating some websites challenging, but the Vooglam platform was user-friendly and intuitive. Adding my prescription details was straightforward, which made the whole process smooth.

Transition Lenses Without Breaking the Bank

I’ve always wanted transition lenses, but when I checked with another retailer like Hakim, they cost around $400. With Vooglam, I got transition lenses for just over $200 and an extra pair of regular lenses for $240. The icing on the cake? They offer Afterpay, making it more affordable to spread out payments.

When my frames finally arrived, I was thrilled. I chose the Janina, which my mother loves, and the Ibrahim, which my whole family admired. Personally, I adore the Ibrahim because they’re versatile—I can wear them casually or dress them up with the gold accents inside the lenses.

At first, I doubted the transition lenses because they didn’t darken instantly, but my mom pointed out how they looked like sunglasses outdoors. The packaging also stood out: my glasses came with a PD measurement tool, an authenticity card for the transition lenses, and stylish cloth cases.

Finding My Eyewear Style: Exploring Vooglam’s Endless Options

What I appreciate most about Vooglam is their incredible variety of frame styles. Right now, I’m still figuring out my style, but my wishlist is full of frames in all different shapes and designs. With the two frames I already purchased, I plan to add my prescription instead of returning them.

Vooglam has made owning multiple high-quality glasses affordable and fun. I’m excited to explore more of their collection and discover my perfect eyewear style.
