Your patience and support were wonderful. After dealing with LensCrafters who wanted me to buy the same frames (nothing wrong) with my frames. Then telling me it would be better for the discount, I spent 1/2 and am so impressed with the price, process and turn around time. Thank you again.
As others have said, price and speed is decent, but the quality is just not there. The lenses seemed like they were just slapped in there without much thought. The left lens does not seem to be aligned properly. I understand Trivex might be slightly thicker than then poly or higher index lenses, but I am -2.0 in the left and -1.75 in the right, so I don't understand why there is so much difference in size. Note that this does not seem to be the result of bumping during shipping, I tried to apply some light pressure to move the lens around but it didn't budge. The edges of the left lens are definitely thicker by quite a bit relative to the right.
I'll be keeping them since you can't really tell unless you are holding them, and I don't want to be without my glasses for another week and a half, but I expected a bit more.
Picture does a better job of explaining.
Hey Josh - so sorry to hear you are unhappy with the way your lenses have been mounted into your frames! I can assure you they were not just slapped in, as we use precision and care in all lens mounting. As you mentioned, Trivex is a thicker material and the difference in magnification of each eye (must take the CYL and AXIS into account as well) can cause the lenses to appear slightly different sizes.
With that said, but I do see the issue you are referring to and want you to know we would be happy to bring the frames back in and investigate further if you'd like. If there is an issue with how they were mounted (or edged) we will fix for you no problem at all, free of charge! If you would like to reply here or message us at [email protected] we can get you all takes care of. Thanks!
I had two pairs of non-prescription sun glasses that had both become scratched. I was optimistic when I saw the lensabl ad because I had been unable to find a local eye glass shop that would put new lenses in my frames (fear of breaking the frames). Lensabl did a great job from initial contact with customer service, ease of sending in my glasses, rapidity of service, and return. I just got my glasses back today and I am thrilled!
Thanks Tina! We are so glad to hear you are happy with our service. Thanks for trusting us with your vision.
I ordered some glasses. Sent in the prescription, glasses arrived. COould not see clearly out of them. Put them aside. Waited a day and wore them again. Vision no better. Contacted them, was told by Rudy that I had submitted a contact lens prescription--my error. He sent me a return postage thingie and I sent the incorrect glasses back along with the CORRECT SPECTACLES prescription. In about 1 and 1/2 weeks, the new ones were sent to me and I can see quite well with them. Great customer service. Very pleased with these lenses.
Hi Cheryl - we are so glad we could help you with your glasses. We are even happier you can see well now! :)
I could not be more pleased with Lensabl. Ordering first of all is a breeze, and I love the option of sending in the frames yourself with their prepaid label with one day shipping. I received my frames completed with lenses within 2 weeks, so I was very happily surprised. The quality of the lenses and the workmanship on them is impeccable. I had also placed another order with them where there was a slight problem - but the customer service representative I had the pleasure to work the issue through was wonderful. He basically took my case on personally, was cheerful and willing to assist all the way through - and I couldn't be happier with their care and dedication in customer satisfaction. It's so rare to have customer service that's as great as their team - they have all been so accommodating, friendly and so helpful. I feel that my needs and frames are under great care with Lensabl, and I (as an eyewear enthusiast) will be a customer of theirs for life.
Rika - Thank you for taking the time to share such a thoughtful review. We always try our best to resolve any issues quickly, and are happy your glasses turned out so well!
Lensabl provides an excellent, reasonably priced product in an efficient and timely way. And what is more, the organization provides a 90-day guarantee for its products. And throughout the ordering, production and shipping process, the organization keeps the customer in the communication loop. As an example, I inadvertently scratched one of my new lenses shortly after receiving them. Without having carefully read the guarantee, I emailed the company to ask if it could buff the lens or replace it. A representative responded in a timely way that the lens was still covered under the warranty. He provided me detailed information about how to ship the lens out for replacement. I have been kept informed about its place in the queue. As a quality service/product delivery system consultant to organizations worldwide, I have found Lensabl to be in a very small minority that delivers on its promises not only in providing an excellent product at a reasonable price but in servicing its products with excellence after the sale.
Jon - thank you for sharing your experience with us! We always strive to help our customers and honor our terms of service. We are glad your order turned out well!
I had an amazing experience with Lensabl & will absolutely be using them again. They're extremely reasonable & walk you through step by step of the process very clearly. I accidentally sent my glasses in with my case (which you're not supposed to do) & a very helpful customer service agent Clarke helped me with great attention to detail. Highly recommend Lensabl!
Hi Joana - Thank you for sharing your experience working with Clarke and Lensabl. We appreciate your feedback and your business!
Used and happy with their product and speed
I did, however, get a small scratch on one lens but they refused to honor the warranty and want full price for replacement, so on this I lowered my star and will advise anyone I recommend about this
Hi Curt - We are sorry to hear your lenses were scratched. If this happens within the first 90 days, and wasnt the result of being dropped or damaged, we will always replace them. Please email photos to [email protected] and we'll be happy to assist you.
I love Lensabl! Great product, great customer service! I purchased the expedited shipping, and it was only 8 days from the date I shipped off my frames to the date I had them back in my hands with new lenses. (They also sent me back my old lenses, which I really appreciated.) My lenses were and still are perfect.
A week or so after my new lenses arrived, I reached out to customer service to ask some general questions about care and to purchase the extended warranty, as well as a few cleaning kits. The Lensabl rep responded quickly and went out of his way to be very helpful.
I highly recommend Lensabl and will definitely be a repeat customer!
Hi Gillian - we love hearing feedback like this! We're glad your glasses turned out well, and our team was able to help you.
They put the wrong lenses in my glasses.
Once they get paid they want nothing to do with you.
So the best thing folks is for no one to use this rip off service.
Take it from me and the others on here and boycott them.
Hey Frank - so sorry to hear you've had a bad experience. We definitely don't want you to have gotten the wrong lenses and we absolutely will fix the issue. Please message us at [email protected] with your order number and we can get you taken care of right away. Thanks!
I'm a photographer and filmmaker, my sight is everything to me. I took a gamble on lensable, was treated with absolute care and kindness throughout the process. Got my glasses in under two weeks and I'm blown away with the quality. The best part for me is how much less they get smudged. Miracle. I also feel like my vision is sharper. Bravo!
Hi Alexander - we know vision is important to all our customers, but know it really matters to professionals in your line of work. Thank you for trusting us with your vision!
Received my glasses today. The frames are bent out of shape and are now rendered unwearable. I expect a full refund for the lenses and the frames which they destroyed.
Hi Marcus - I am sincerely sorry to hear there was an issue with your order. Please contact us at [email protected]. We would be happy to help you resolve this.
Gold Cazal's 644 look great... my prescription was dead on... nice. Everything I asked for. Never got bored with my questions, great place to send your frames and get quality lenses.
Thanks Edward - we are so glad to hear about your experience!
Beautiful sunglasses updated with a new prescription. The entire process was easy! I immediately pulled out my other glasses and started making plans. I highly recommend Lensabl and will use them again!
Thank you for trusting us with your Chanel frames! Please let us know when you're ready for the next pair. :)
I used lensabl for 3 sunglasses and every time the results were excellent and i'm very happy. Definitely recommend to turn your old sunglasses to new.
Thanks Tariq! Let us know when you're ready for the next pair. :)
2 prior brick and mortar locations botched the lenses for my very nice set of Silhouette frames. Their prices were high and the quality was third rate - picture monkeys banging stones together bad. Lensabl showed up in an online search so I gave them a shot. I'll be a repeat customer. When you select rolled and polished edges, you actually get rolled and polished edges. And the drill mounts were properly placed. USPS can be a bit slow, but the execution on the lenses was well worth the wait.
Thanks William! We are glad that we were able to meet your expectations (and exceed the two monkeys banging stones)!
I have a really complicated prescription and they made the lenses perfectly! It took awhile, but for the $$ I saved from the regular optometrist, so worth it!
Thank you so much for trusting us with your prescription! We are glad we could help you. :)
I recently left a highly negative review of Lensabl. That was based on what seemed to be hard to explain delays in product delivery. But the company stepped up and did the right thing by me. I would use the service again.
Stephen, thank you for giving us the opportunity to resolve your issue. We appreciate your business and review!
Look, I ordered my glasses just about 6 months ago. I barely received them about 2 weeks ago. Why does this deserve a 5 star you say? Well first off, my first pair of glasses were stolen via transport. After I figured that out with my carrier, Lensabl was eager to get things going. But after they messed up my package and shipped them to the wrong person, they offered to replace my glasses free of charge. Which is something that literally MOST companies will not provide without some charge. That being said, they worked on my glasses and got them to me ASAP. That, my dear readers, is amazing customer service. If you think that's $#*!ty, you probably have no empathy and are a bit entitled to having everything going your way, which hopefully you know by now as adults, life does not work that way. I recommend this company 100x rather that going to any company owned by Luxottica Group, who charge you obscene prices for the same deal. Don't be stupid, if it takes longer, it's worth it. Don't pay $400 for the same product people.
Jimi - thank you for taking the time to leave such an honest and fair review. We appreciate that you gave us a chance to redeem our mistake, and are thrilled you are happy with the outcome!
Lensabl was able to answer all my questions before placing the order. Shipping was fast and on time. Best of all, my old favorite frames came back looking like new, with my updated RX. I highly recommend Lensabl for replacement lenses and saved hundreds of dollars.
Thanks for the opportunity to bring your old favorite frames back to life. We are so glad you gave us a try!
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!
