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.

Easy!
June 3, 2025

Just a click of a button and my contacts were on my doorstep. I was able to get my prescription with one of the physicians on line and from there was able to submit my prescription to receive my contacts

Great experience w. 1800 GET LENS. Compared to 1800 contacts, pricing for 6mos supply was much more reasonable and arrived in a timely manner. Thank you!

Wait time after placing order
June 1, 2025

Had to wait too long for order. Reason given was that my order was supposedly a "specialty lens" that wasn't in stock.
Will probably use 1-800 Contacts next time.

I placed an order and then later received an email saying out of stock. When they finally shipped, I had to pick it up at the post office.

Order process was fine. Received item a few weeks later. Hopefully the rebate process will go through with not major hiccups.

Include the other fees
May 31, 2025

I don't mind paying, I would much rather have all the fees of service and such be included prior. I already expect to pay for shipping so I prepare some wiggle room for the cost, but the extra fees go beyond that. If that is presented before hand I would appreciate. It genuinely feels like a scam when the fees are revealed only at the end. It felt like robbery. Please make it feel less like that by having pricing up front and direct. Very confusing when it's not. The shopping experience was less than pleasant.
