I had great expectations with my order but I'm very disappointed.
First, I sent my frames in it's original, brand new Tom Ford case and when I received back my glasses, the case was not in the box...
Second, the order took more time than expected due to a production issue in the lab (no problem with that)
Third, I ordered transition glasses and I'm pretty sure this glasses aren't transition.
And, tomorrow I have to check with my optometrist, but I have the suspect that the left glass doesn't have the right correction...
Not happy at all...
My favorite now vintage prescription sun glasses had been sitting in a drawer for years since my prescription changed. When I found out about Lensabl after searching the web I gave it a try. Easy from start to finish and I am very happy!
Everything was kinda ok... To longer than I had hoped. And they turned out lighter than I had hoped... And a number of people have pointed out that the glasses look more pink than purple which is what I had asked for ( purple not pink)
But in the end at least now I can see... Which is the most important thing... I most likely will not use this service again and I would most likely not refer them to a friend or client...
The lenses were great and at a reasonable price. Much better than going to an overpriced optometrist and no having to wait for two weeks, got my lenses in less than a week.
I had a pair of Burberry frames that I loved but the prescription in them was an old one. I took them to Lens Crafters and they quoted me $400 to replace the lenses! I said, "no way" and came home and googled. I found Lensabl and sent the frames off - less than two weeks later I got them back, nicely boxed with an eyeglass case and cleaner kit. I am so happy I did this! Those frames were sitting in a drawer and for about $70 I am able to wear them again. I would highly recommend.
I am very disappointed in the lack of attention given in creating my recent lenses. I have used lensabl several times in the past few years so I was completely thrown off when I received 2 completely different colored lenses in my frames. They claim to send the frames through several quality inspections which is clearly impossible. I reached out and was sent a label to return my frames so they could fix it. 3 weeks later, I receive my frames and AGAIN they sent me 2 different colored lenses. I ordered my prescription with blue light blocking lenses. Somehow, after going through their "many quality inspections" my frames came with one blue light blocking lens and one brown colored lens, TWICE! And it gets worse, the second time they sent me 2 different colored lenses, the right lens didn't even have my prescription. Lensabl clearly cannot deliver or even fix their mistakes and their no refund policy means I have waisted 5 weeks of my time and $120. The pic in the car is the first set of lenses and the pic with the curtain is the second set of lenses.
I purchased these lenses to replace my Oakley sunglasses. However once I receive them they extend beyond the actual frame on the outside making them a bit unsightly. Previously in the year I purchased another set of oakleys that did not have this effect so it is not the prescription for the same one was used. I may not purchase from this company again.
Sent in Bose tenor sunglasses that I wanted the lenses changed out for regular reading lenses, from start to finish was only a couple of weeks and they were perfect
The site was never updated with the correct information, I was never notified of the status of my lenses, and every time I contacted Lensabl they told me 6 days till shipping. My glasses were 4 weeks late, I am never ordering from Lensabl again!
Used Lensabl two times now and both experiences were excellent. The price was better than going through an optometrist or a place like lens crafters and the end result is excellent even with a prism. Highly recommend
This order, as well as the previous, took weeks to fulfill. No communication throughout, and I received tracking info the day I received my glasses. This will be the last time I use lensabl.
Horrible experience from end to end. The expectation was set in the dashboard after ordering that the lenses would be shipped within 6 days. That timeline never updated and I kept checking to see whether my lenses had been shipped and contacted support who didn't really know what what was going on. Took 6 weeks to finally get the lenses which is way too long. Support wouldn't give a discount even with these issues.
Lensabl broke my frames and then ignored me for months- waste of time to get it from here- just go to another site
I've waited two months so far for my glasses. Lensabl's resolution? To overnight them at no extra charge, just as soon as they are ready.
I will say that following the instructions are very important. I did not pay attention to some of the things required so it caused some delays. The support was very responsive and once I took care of what steps i missed it was an easy process. The lenses are fantastic, as good as other more expensive services I have used. Better than Warby parker's I also own.
I had a pair if vintage frames that were my Grandma's that I wanted made into my glasses. They did a beautiful job converting them into my frames and I love them! They kept me updated with the process as well.
Was immediately attracted to this service comparing prices with my local store, that said I have some issues / concerns:
* I mailed my Frames in the manufacturer provided case to ensure that they were not damaged during shipping. The returned glasses came with an awkward and large case, and it would seem as though they have kept or discarded my case. This may be in the fine print somewhere, but this should be made very clear, as I would much rather have my case back
* When cleaning the glasses shortly after receipt, I was surprised to find that the lenses are not seated tightly and shift while cleaning. This is a big concern and I am hoping this does not result in the lenses falling out, but time will tell
* Adding a quick note - I have provided a 2 star review, when I hit complete, it shows as 5, please note
I'm glad I finally got my sunglasses, two months after I ordered them. I was told it would be ready within a week, but they ended up damaging my lenses and who knows what. They were sunglasses for the summer, and now my summer is over, so it wasted a lot of my time and money. Two stars for at least informing me of these issues, but this was a really bad experience I hope nobody has to go through.
I was unsure about ordering lenses from a third party but this completely changed my mind! It went beyond my expectations!
Price point was very good for progressive clear lens. The only downside was the length of time to get the new lens due to two quality control failures. However, I found the staff to be responsive to my concerns.
Answer: I was not so lucky and have had a horrible experience withLensabl. After two months I'm still waiting for progressive lenses that cost over $600 and Neither my frames nor the lenses I ordered are back to me. Next time I will use a local eyewear store.
Answer: They falsely boosted about putting new lenses in existing frames (in a very short turn around like a week) not the 8 months it's been
Answer: Once your frames arrive at our lab, assuming you've provided all required Rx information, lens production is 4-7 business days on average before shipping
Answer: I purchased some really awesome vintage glasses with octagonal black plastic frames made in France, probably from the late 1960s or early 1970s. I was so excited to have them made into sunglasses. I took them to my local optical shop and was told, "I hope you didn't spend much on these because you wasted your money. No one will touch frames this old, because the plastic is so brittle it will just shatter." I was so disappointed. I tossed them in a drawer and forgot about them for a few months. Then I saw an ad for Lensabl online. I contacted them and asked if they could work with vintage frames, and the answer was "No problem!" I was nervous to send the frames in but figured I didn't have anything to lose. I just received the glasses back in the mail today (two weeks from when I mailed them in), and they are incredible! The frames were cleaned and straightened, and the new lenses are perfect. I love them so much. Thanks, Lensabl!
Answer: They clearly don't have the infrastructure set up to be in this business where each frame is a customer order. In cases like they they are not staffed with customer services that can be actually helpful which only result in wrongly made glasses. They broke my glasses and are not trying to it at all. I posted review on here before and then it just disappeared for some reason, I'm not sure if they are paying people to get rid of negative reviews.
Answer: Transitions take an upwards of 30 seconds to Transition. The weather conditions can impact the Transition time. Brighter and warmer outside conditions= transitions faster.
Answer: I am having the same experience. Took my money, lost my frames and have done nothing on refund nor damages. I filed with BBB as well. Why are they still in business is a surprise to me?How many more consumers do they need to harm before they are fined and/or shut down?
Answer: All prices are in USD ($) but we do ship to Canada as well :)
Answer: Yes all of our lenses are guaranteed or we will re-make them if any issues once you receive them back. Thanks!
