1-800-GET-LENS Reviews Summary

The company has garnered a mixed reputation, with customers appreciating the ease of ordering and competitive pricing for contact lenses, often highlighting a smooth online experience and effective prescription verification. However, several reviews point to significant concerns regarding service delays, unexpected fees, and occasional issues with customer support.

Good service
July 18, 2025

Contacts arrived quickly and were correct. Buyer take note that there is a large service fee, so you must add that coat into your comparison of other deals. It still came out cheaper for me to buy from here than a competitor. I also qualify for a rebate. I hope to receive it and that will pretty much cover the service fee cost.

Rebate should just be automatic
July 15, 2025

I don't like the fact that I have to spend $15 to send in for a rebate that's supposed to be $75 but now basically become $60 for having to send it USPS with a recommended signature to prove that you guys received it.

A bit high
July 15, 2025

The most expensive processing ive ever experienced. I at least would have expected a free lens case for the large price i paid and the amount of wait time... i have had positive experiences with 1800 in the past but now i feel i should shop around for better prices and faster orders.
