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.

I was expecting a tracking system, when I didn't receive when I expected, I called and was told not in warehouse and would take longer but still no tracking system. I had to wear my trial pair longer than expected.

It would have been so helpful if I got a message saying that the contacts I ordered were discontinued I wouldn't have to wait 4 months knowing that.

I was sent the wrong lens. It was not what I ordered. I had to call, wait for them to get it, credit my account, and then I can get a refund or order again. The order took a long time in the 1st place.

Shopping Experience
September 5, 2024

It took longer than expected for me to receive the contact lenses that I ordered. Then once they arrived I had to print off my rebate form and mail it in. I am not sure why they couldn't have just priced the contacts cheaper ( at price including rebate) and create less work?

Correct order, shipping takes a while
September 5, 2024

I wish it shipped to me quicker. No estimated ship date until you have already ordered, which makes it hard to plan.

Fast

Came on time! Very easy process! The application form for the rebate card and all of that is a bit tedious, but will be doing it for sure to get my money back! Solid 9/10 experience.

I had been using AC Lens for over 20 years for my gas permeable contacts, and when I found out that the company that bought them did not carry my brand — Boston EO — I went a-googling. GET-LENS had a great website wher I found my brand, easily entered my prescription and ordered. One week later I'm loving my lenses. Happy ending!
