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.

Wonderful Customer Service
December 21, 2024

New to ordering contacts, I made an error in my online order. Customer Service contacted me via email to alert me about it and when I called and spoke to the representative, she was as helpful, professional and as lovely as I could possibly ask for. And I actually received my contacts much sooner than the anticipated arrival. Very impressive experience and very competitive pricing to boot! Well done!

Great customer satisfaction!
December 20, 2024

My order was delayed since the brand of contacts wasn't in stock. They emailed me the day after to let me know and was told it would take a while. They ended up coming a week and a half later which is basically the normal waiting time for me! Will definitely buy from 1800 again!

I wasn't pleased with the lack of transparency on "fees" in the receipt. It just says $300 something for the lenses and then $9 for the shipping but somehow adds up to $483. Then you get a rebate which I'm guessing is profitable bc people forget they have the print something (I don't have a printer) then mail it with tracking, just to get back a Visa card, which you can't use on bills. Like, just be a cool corporation and let everyone pay $210 less on the front end without making people jump through hoops. Very sour taste in my mouth having to drive and pay to print something. Like, super annoyed.

Contacts took forever to arrive
December 17, 2024

I was not satisfied with my delivery. It took forever to get my order I paid for shipping twice. My order didn't arrive when they said it would arrive & it took so many more days passed when they said. You had my prescription the whole time. It shouldn't take almost 4 weeks to get contacts when I paid for shipping & then paid for over night shipping. I emailed almost everyday trying to get my order. If there was a star less then 1 I would have rated less then a star.

Above and Beyond!
December 17, 2024
Updated review

Simple, easy ordering process. All of my shipments run early and it's always amazing to have my contacts already in stock. They are super communicative and very dependable. The price is much better than buying from the optometrist's office...by a MASSIVE margin. Highly recommend.

Such an easy, affordable and convenient service! I never have to worry about ordering contacts in enough time, they just notify me as to when they'll be there and honestly they're always early!

Easy to order from
December 17, 2024

I went on site and ordered a box of contacts. I uploaded my prescription and they filled the order with no problems. I looked at several other online contacts companies but this one was the cheapest price. The contacts arrived within a decent time frame and I am wearing them now.
