Frist time ordering from you.
July 26, 2024

My order did take a lot longer than expected.
I really appreciate the email informing me that it would take longer due to availability of my prescription.
The order came in correctly so I'm very happy with that.
I will definitely recommend your company.

Revise the website!
July 26, 2024

The website was confusing but I ordered via the phone. My contacts arrived quickly and well packed. I thought the business was "1-800-CONTACTS" and never knew about 1-800-GET-LENS.

Easy site
July 25, 2024

Easy website! Very easy to find what I was looking for and quick delivery. Contacts were still expensive, but that's just the cost of contacts, I guess.

Extremely easy.
July 24, 2024

I was skeptical about ordering contacts online.(how easy is it to confirm my prescription, etc) But it was extremely easy. It only took less than 24 hours to confirm and my contacts were shipped. The only thing I'm a little concerned about is receiving the rebate that the contacts have.

Contact order
July 23, 2024

At first I was disappointed because my contacts didn't ship when expected. Apparently my higher prescription is one they don't have in their warehouse, so Get Lens had to go directly through the manufacturer. This added time to the delivery. I ordered them on July 1, and was told several days later via email that the contacts would not arrive until July 21. This was frustrating for me as I was already out of them and had to wear my glasses during this waiting period. I called customer service twice to see if they could get them sooner. The second person I talked to, a manager, was very down to earth and reassured me that the contacts would be fresh and that I could pay $8 and have them fed-exed. Doing this, they arrived on July 18. I am pleased with them. Just know if you use this company and have a power of -4.00 or higher, you will need to allow for plenty of time to ship.

Cheaper, faster
July 23, 2024

I looked into a couple different sites to order my lenses from and this site was both cheaper and faster. Wish there was an express shipping option for lenses in stock but still happy I got them quickly! (8-10 days)
