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.

Very responsive customer service!
February 6, 2025

I had an issue where my prescription didn't match up to what I ordered so 1-800-GET-LENS did the work to call my doctor and get his approval for the order and I got my lens very quickly once they shipped out!

I was told the items i was ordering were in stock, and two days after payment I was notified that the supplier was in short supply and that the delivery would be delayed. The same thing happened again. I was not compensated for the delay and as a result was forced to wear glasses for several important appointments.

Everything went fine,customer service did their best.
The verification of my prescription seemed to be a pain. Probably could have been on Costcos end as well. Life goes on. I will be back again for the savings. Thanks for everything.

Shipping time was long
February 4, 2025

Shipping took a long time. Customer Service was great with answering my email and explaining they had to order my specific prescription from thier factory because they didn't have it in stock. Had I known that was going to be the case, I probably wouldn't have purchased.

The prices were great for the brand I wanted. They made it easy, all I had to do was submit my prescription and with who. They did the rest. Received everything within a week, and just mailed my rebate. 😊 Thank you for great service and selection.

Bad review

I thought I was getting a reduced price, that is the only reason I ordered eight boxes. My credit card was charged $861.79. Holy smokes, I will never buy here again. Thanks for nothing.
