The fact that the delivery was on hold and I had to call someone and it was just a "Yes, its me, send them." Then go to send off for the rebate and I have to dismantle and cut out parts of the boxes I use to store the contacts.

Okay
September 18, 2025

Fine. Unhappy with the rebate not showing the upfront price at the very beginning, I'm suspicious about the rebate as I've been burned before... but time will tell.

Patient yet very pleased customer
September 18, 2025

I am on a very tight budget so the price was perfect! Cheapest for 1 box I've come across on the internet. It took over 2 weeks to receive after I ordered but for the price I cannot- I do not have any complaints!

Very easy to order, just make sure you have a copy of your script for your contacts. Plus it actually saved me 60.00 from ordering from my eye doctor. Definitely be coming back to reorder
