A test of Lorentz invariance for electromagnetic waves was performed by comparing the resonance frequencies of two optical resonators as a function of orientation in space. In terms of the Robertson-Mansouri-Sexl theory, we obtain $\beta-\delta-1/2=(+0.5\pm 3\pm 0.7) E-10$, a ten-fold improvement compared to the previous best results. We also set a first upper limit for a so far unknown parameter of the Standard Model Extension test theory, $|(\tilde{\kappa}_{e-})^{ZZ}| < 2\cdot E-14$.
