Lenskart’s Virtual AR Experience- Editors’ Reviews
Vanessa’s Experience
I’ve always struggled with finding a pair of sunglasses. Eyeglasses are a piece of cake for me, especially online shopping. I just know what will look good on me. But sunglasses are a whole different ball game. I can never judge the size of the frame, the color of the lens which results in a bad case of shopping regret. Even styles confuse me, will cat eye sunglasses look better on me than classic wayfarers? Will round sunglasses make me look bug-eyed? All these thoughts are now put to rest thanks to Lenskart’s Virtual AR Experience. And judging by the tool’s recommendations, I look pretty damn good in everything!


Francis’s Experience
First and foremost, I must say the user experience is so smooth and seamless, with no awkward glitches at all. Secondly, I couldn’t stop swiping on all the sunglasses the Virtual AR tool recommended. It’s definitely a more convenient and safe way to shop, especially with COVID-19 dropping a new variant every few months. What I liked most about this AR tool was the ease of use, the styles it recommends, and the 180-degree look of the frames on you. The tool recommended aviators, which certainly is a good fit for me, but what surprised me was the clubmaster recommendations. I never thought this style would suit me, but now it’s my favorite look.
The bottom line is this is one AR experience you can’t miss if you want to buy sunglasses online . You’ll find yourself coming back to this awesome tool over and over again. Trust us.
