The cost was not clear and the rebate is complicated. I ended up paying more than I would have through the optometrist.

Ease of rebate was great. I am not a person who writes long reviews. 1-800-Lens did a great job.

Quick and accurate and affordable for the best place to get comfortable contacts that fit my eyes and not my ears. Some people are getting so much better at checking my eyesight. Definitely need to read all the Es on the chart backwards and forwards.

Plug in prescription, check out. Easy. Didn't do rebate due to hassle of it and risk of forgetting.

Just be aware of what it says in the title. It's not really cheaper than other companies, they sell rebates which will cost you time and money to get. If I had known this, I would not have ordered from them try contact lens king instead.
