Decent
July 26, 2025

There are expensive "fees", that are unexplained. Other than that It's still cheaper than going to america's best.

NO issues with the lenses
July 26, 2025

They just make you fill out this stupid survey. If you don't, they keep nagging you with emails until you fold. This is a very stupid thing for a company to do. But what do you expect from KC MO

Frustrated
July 26, 2025

They sent me the wrong prescription after I sent them my exact doctor prescription from the doctor's legal pad. It delayed everything an extra 2 months and getting my order. The only good news is they did correct it. But I was without contacts for a total of Two and a Half 3 months because of the error when it was only supposed to be a two-week wait

There should be a way to just scan in your prescription and the system read it, instead of typing it in.

The fact you need 50 characters to answer a simple yes or no question, is kind of ridiculous

So my order was delayed for no reason and they couldn't explain why it was flagged and then I got the email that it was fine and nothing was wrong. The context came later and I had to pay for shipping which was ridiculous, especially because it was $10. I don't think I'll be doing this again.
