I have dealt with this Company on multiple occassions and each time has been a positive experience. I have received phone calls from their technicians asking questions and they were always polite and professional. Prices and service seem really good to me.

I purchased two pairs of glasses, at different times, a pair of reading glasses and a pair of computer glasses.

Upon receipt of each pair, there was no adjustment required to the fit of the different frames and the quality of the two lenses were 'spot on' to the Optometrist's prescription. The fits were comfortable the the quality of my vision improved in each situation to the requirements prescribed.

Overall excellent value for my purchasing dollar and 100% satisfaction with my eyesight.

I have been very pleased with the glasses and with the service of ordering and sending the glasses to France. I have found the personnel responsive, with helpful suggestions.

Prices are great
July 12, 2019

I like the fact that the prices are great but your order tracking is not good at all. I can't login into your website to check the status of my order. Not efficient way to keep customers informed.

I bought a pair of glasses at a low price. Of course, the frames were not very expensive but they do the job.

Great service
July 12, 2019

I had a huge scratch in the lens of my favourite pair of glasses, the optometrist in my city quoted me $150 to get it reglazed, Optically did it for about a third of the price, only took a week or two. Very pleased!

This was my first time buying glasses online. Amazingly easy. Great selection! Super fast processing and delivery! Affordable! My glasses are perfect! My insurance company processed my claim without question. This is the only way to buy eye wear.

Possibly the worst service I have ever experience. Ordered on 31 May 2019, still haven't received confirmation when i will even receive my order. I had to follow up just to find out if they received my order and prescription and the order number provided does not work

Received prescription glasses and they are not even close to the ones I ordered.
They will not even answer my emails. I believe they have no intention of making it right.

Scam business
October 12, 2018

I ordered glasses on September 6,2018. I received the glasses on September 28,2018. In the meantime, following an e-mail communication requested by them. I've wanted to cancel the order, but without success. The first thing I noticed when finally I got glasses was that the thickness of the lenses, I ordered (1.74 index) is rather (1.56 index) I had paid $220.00 more for a quality lens... and when I tried glasses I could not see anything with. I had, however, provided them a copy of my prescription from my optometrist. A week after informing the customer service of the problem, I am unanswered. I contacted Pay Pal regarding their guarantee. Optically finally answered that the thickness of the lenses can be different from one manufacturer to another. In the meantime, I observed that on the package of shipment that the product comes from a subcontractor "Plastic Plus" I'm communicating with them about optometry measures. A measurement in Optometry must be accurate and not random from one laboratory to another. Twice in four, I was fooled by the order online prescription glasses. I hope to have had my lesson! I also hope to benefit from the Pay Pal guarantee because it is with a Canadian company that the problem happened this time here!

I had ordered 3 pairs of glasses from Optically for my Husband, my son and a sunglass for me. They were delivered to well packed in a week or 10 days time. I love the case they were sent. Will surely buy again.

Don't buy from them
July 25, 2018

This company has very poor service. The disconnect between what they tell you on their website and via customer service, and what they will do in terms of delivery and what you get is large. They make promises they can't keep in order to get your business, then excuse after excuse and promise after promise to keep you on the hook. I got scammed. Go with another vendor.

I lost my glasses while I was travelling to Canada for work. I needed a pair desperately hence looked up online for a fast service. I came across many online suppliers however went with Optically as they offered a next day service and their prices were very low as compared to others. I received my glasses in about a weeks time and they are better than what I purchased from my Optometrist in UK.

Dream come true

I have always wanted to wear sunglasses but never did because I have to wear prescription sunglasses. I found Optically.ca, ordered my pair of prescription glasses and received them in 10 business days. Loving them and definitely going to order again.

TOTAL FRAUD
April 18, 2018

Do not order from this company. Everything they claim on their website is a fraud. They are not Canadian. Phone number is New York, eyeglasses shipped from India. They claimed to have a 100% satisfaction guarantee. Do not honour it. Changed their terms and conditions on their website when I asked about it. Would not send me an RMA so I could send the glasses back. Had to finally go to my credit card company to have the purchase reversed. STAY AWAY FROM THESE GUYS!

The glasses were never shipped - no one replies from the company through email anymore (they only reply in the first two weeks that your order is almost complete but then stops responding)- its been 6 weeks now- was promised 10-12 business days dispatch - It's a fraud company or may be just sends out 10% of the orders they receive to scam majority of people.
