Easy to Use
May 3, 2025

My experience has been great using the site, it was easy to order and upload my prescription. My experience would be 5 stars if I could actually get my rebate - I've requested the email several times and received nothing to submit the refund.

Tricky.
May 2, 2025

They sneak those added fees on after you think you are getting a good deal. I got my contacts and shipping was quick but it's a first and last for me! I like to know what I am spending up front not be surprised at check out with some sticker shock.!

Disappointed that it took almost a month to receive from order date. Once items were shipped, delivery arrived as expected.

I was out of contacts and couldn't get in with my doctor for several months. I was able to use my prescription to order more contacts, at a cheaper price with this company! So thankful!

Hidden Fees
April 30, 2025

I was pleased to see the lower prices and wanted to take advantage of the deal where 8 boxes had a mail-in rebate. I bought 8 boxes of Acuvue but since one of my eyes has astigmatism the deal did not apply. I was disappointed since I did buy 8 boxes but apparently they have to be the exact same. When I went to pay I noticed a service fee of over $200. I could have just gotten them at Walgreens or 1800contacts since the price actually ended up being the same.
