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.

Terrible experience
November 12, 2024

I have never waited this long to receive contact lens ordered online ever!

The length of time to receive one box that contained six contacts was over three weeks.

Deplorable!

Nothing went right
November 12, 2024

Delivery took forever, with a ton of stops along the way. Delivery by FedEx was made to my neighbor's house, luckily I recognized his house via the delivery photo. The contacts are not the correct color blue, I ordered the deeper shade.

Took WAY too long for items to arrive. This is the second time this has happened, so I guess shame on me.

I waited for my contacts for over 3 weeks. When I looked at the receipt it said it was around $208, but my card was charged for $285.

The lady called and double-checked my online order and was very helpful and getting the prescription correct for the correct lenses before order actually placed. She also made sure everything was correct about the billing and shipping addresses. Very detailed and patient with me.

Took a little longer than expected.

Great price for sure. My contacts happened to be out of stock so it took longer than I expected to get them. However they came and are perfect.
