Although there was a delay in receiving my glasses, it was WORTH THE WAIT. I needed lenses made for hard to find frames and they nailed it…better than I could ever have expected. I am 100% satisfied!
This was my first time ordering lens' on line, it was an easy process and instructions were clear to understand. Will definetely use them again.
First time using Kendall. The turn around was quick. I had many questions and even made an alteration to my order via chat and it worked.
Over all the price was not much lower than my FSA store. I thought the pricing would have been better since the goodr frames are so well pricedx
I had high expectations for my recent lens order/fitting of a new pair of Stoggles safety glass eyewear. After weeks of waiting (the process was stuck at the "applying coatings" phase for several weeks showing "will ship in 5 days") I received my glasses in the mail. I had opted for anti-fogging coating on the inside of the lens and anti-dust and the works on the outside of the lenses. Two minutes into wearing the glasses with my mask on there was condensation on the inside of the lenses literally running down the lens. They looked like I had ran them under water. I cleaned the lenses thoroughly and discovered a small speck in each corner of the lenses. It looked like the lens had been clamped by a pincher or something during the manufacturing process. Not sure if this is common practice but I want a lens that is clear, not with imperfections.
After thoroughly cleaning the lenses (by the way, the inside coating on the lens created a great amount of difficulty in the cleaning process as it caused the cleaning cloth to stick to it for some reason), I did some woodworking. When I was finished kicking up dust I inspected the lenses to find that the inside of the lens was covered in dust (stuck to it) and the outside was fine.
I have contacted Lensabl and am now in the perpetual waiting game of an unreturned email. Overall, these lenses will not perform the function intended and I am out $150...
I recently got LASIK and no longer have use for my prescription glasses, but I love my frames. I'm happy with how my new sunglasses created from my old prescription glasses turned out.
First time ordering my sunglasses it was easy and I got them very fast. They look and feel great. Thanks
Since I'm apparently hard to shop for, Christmas brought practical gifts. I treated myself to something specialBose sunglasses. I've been in glasses since I was a little kid and had early onset cataracts. Six surgeries later and I was without glasses for five years! Only five years. I love the Bose frames and three weeks after receiving them, I discovered I had to go back into glasses. Imagine my sadness. Enter Lensabl! Through information on the Bose site, I discovered Lensabl! I had already asked local labs to put prescription lenses in the Bose frames. Due to the electronics in the earpieces, no lab locally would help me out. I couldn't ship the glasses to Lensabl fast enough! I got them back this week, and I'm once again enjoying my daily winter walks with musicand crisp vision. I am SO grateful for this company! And considering what prescription sunglasses cost at a local lab, I feel like I'm still money ahead. Bose frames$200, prescription lenses-$100. Good prescription eye protection with the benefit of speakers feeding sound to your ears for $300. Win-win!
So glad to hear you're loving your new Prescription Bose Audio Sunglasses Fran!
Lenses for Bose Glasses: Overly large for Bose Glasses. Slow customer service. After returning first set of lenses because of improper operation along with a prescription, new lenses were made and they still do not work and are unusable. We request a full refund and will return the lenses. We take this matter up with Amazon or Bose if Lensable refuses. Order number paid through amazon is P01-**************. If I do not receive a response within 3 business days, I will turn the matter over to Bose, Amazon and Visa. I bought these as a gift and am very disappointed. Wife Catherine Stryker has been dealing on this issue. The case number is *******. I paid for them by Visa through Amazon Wife's email address is *******@gmail.com. Phone number is *******959. I cannot emphasize enough the slow responses. Can never reach a live person and have to keep calling to get a return call. When a refund was originally requested, we were refused as "we don't give refunds and will remake your lenses." What kind of logic is this? Make another bad set of lenses and cost yourself more money? Lenses are created individually, not an off the shelf item. We are thoroughly disgusted. Thank you for your attention for this matter.
Purchased frames and lenses, after i received them a competitor had the frames on sale, Lensabl offered a price match but took a 15% fee; if I knew this I would've only bought the lenses from them
Ordered and received my order in a timely manner. Product was made as promised.
With aging eyes, I was in shock when my ophthalmologists changed my progressive prescription with added prism adjustments. Less than a year ago I had "invested" more than several thousand dollars in new glasses and sunglasses. I searched the web and found Lensable that offered to update my lenses for less than half of the cost my local optical salon was quoting. I was still nervous about paying upfront and mailing my Tom Ford's trusting that they would come back to me with a prescription that would solve my vision issues. My first wow from Lensable was that the mailing label they gave provided UPS overnight service. I place the glasses in UPS care at 5:00 PM on the East Coast and got a confirmation that they were delivered to Lensable the next morning. Then I was further impressed that their Customer Service team stayed in constant contact with me advising exactly where they were in the course of completing my order. When in less than a week they emailed me a notice of shipment, I receive the package the next morning at 10:00 AM. Drum roll... AND THEY ARE ABSOLUTELY PERFECT. Bye-bye optical salon. Lensabl is on my vision team permanently. Thank you!
INCREDIBLY BAD. I ordered something in late April and didn't get it until late August, by which time I had moved. That's FIVE MONTHS. I asked for a refund, literally for months and months, over and over again, and they just refused. They just kept telling me I'd have my product next week. FOR MONTHS! I spent months assuming that I had simply been defrauded by some kind of fake web site that took my money and just didn't even have a business of any kind. Not only that, since I moved, I also gave this horrible company my new mailing address several weeks ahead of time, not because I thought they were a legitimate business that had any intention of honoring my order at that point, but because I expected that I would have to take them to small claims court, so I wanted a paper trail which showed that I tried to work with them, politely, at every stage in the process (which I did!). When I found out they were actually going to send me my product after all, I was thrilled. But did they use the mailing address that I had given them weeks ago? No. They used the one I had given them MONTHS AGO when I first placed the order. Luckily my old landlord forwarded it on to me. This is the least professional and most disrespectful business I have ever had the misfortune of doing "business" with. In my personal opinion, they should be shut down. The level of incompetence and lazy indifference is just incredible.
Ordering online was super easy. Printed out the shipping label. Got the glasses back within 2 weeks! Also kept me updated every step of the process
What I purchased was replacement lenses for my Rayban Sunglasses. I got prescription lenses with coatings, mirror finish, polarization - everything I could. The product that was given to me was exactly that - they even matched the mirror coating on the lenses to the original coating on the rayban lenses I sent them. I didn't provide a PD but instead did their "take a photo with a credit card next to your face" option and while it's pretty accurate, I think something may be off with mine. When I look through the glasses it takes my eyes a minute to focus - something that doesn't happen with my normal glasses. I'm gonna give it a bit of time to adjust and reach out to Lensabl about it and see what they think. Overall, the product is great and I'm glad I found them. Took almost a month from me sending out the glasses to getting them back.
Service is definitely 3 stars though. The tracking system on the website is less than desirable - it doesn't update as frequently as you think it would which provides inaccurate details about your purchase. For example, there was an issue with my lenses during quality control and they "expedited" a new set to replace the wrong ones. That's great and something I'm very happy about, but I received no notice about it, when I reached out to them about it I didn't get a response until days after and the alert still showed on the tracking page all the way through delivery. This made me very unsure as to whether they actually fixed it or not. Communication with their support team was great overall - they were pleasant and easy to talk to, but it took forever to get responses. I'm a patient and understanding guy, but it was on the long side. When my item was ready to ship, it was in the "Ready to ship" phase until I actually received the item. I got an email with a tracking number and everything, but the portal still said that it was "waiting to ship" - it's since updated, but again isn't very helpful while waiting for the item to be delivered.
Overall a great service and great company to work with, just some wonky things in between that need to be ironed out. I'll still recommend the service and even use them in the future! Thank you for the new sunglasses, Lensabl!
I've tried a couple of different services and this one has the best outcomes consistently.
I ordered new lenses for my glasses on September 3rd & went my glasses the same day priority mail. It's now the 22nd & they haven't even finished them yet! I had to reach out to customer service through chat bc there's no way to call since it said they were in final inspection then all of a sudden jumped back to being at production in the lab. You can't call them so only way is through chat where they tell me they were rejected at final inspection. Now even since they restarted it's taking a super long time. It's Tuesday & been saying applying coatings since last Friday. I reached out to customer service again & ask what the delay is & they email me telling me that they were rejected at inspection & had to be restarted! I already knew this! That's the first thing I told them bc I already talked to customer services before! Can't even answer my question as to why they've been saying est time till shipping has been 5 days & stuck on applying coatings for the past 5 days! Anyways they claim the glasses will be shipped in 1-2 business days... we will see. Will update based on ifthey actually stick to what they are saying now & if lenses aren't actually correct..
After scouring the internet to find a custom prescription fitting for my sunglasses I came across Lensabl.com, they promised a custom prescription fit on just about any existing frame in around two weeks. Seeing as I needed to replace my existing glasses I decided to give them a shot. The lens customization options were vast for any kind of fit/lifestyle, so it was extremely easy to order my optimal pair of lenses!. After submitting my OCH photo I realized I had sent the wrong image, so I contacted support about updating it and it was corrected by the next day! My order did take a little longer than the two week time frame the website claims, being closer to three weeks but I had nothing but time and was in no real rush to have my new pair. Especially if it meant the quality would make up for it, AND MAKE UP FOR IT THEY DID. These Transition lenses are not only capable of getting darker than my previous "Premium" lenses but come with scratch resistant coatings, UV filters, and is anti- reflective all by default. All things I had to pay additional for with my old pair. And at a much cheaper price too! With all of it said and done, I paid SIGNIFICANTLY LESS for higher quality lenses. I really don't think I'll be going anywhere else for lenses!
I am sincerely unhappy with my experience.
-The customer service was incredibly poor.
-I was not allowed a full refund, even though the website states I should have and I requested it within 1 day of purchase.
-My glasses showed up 6 weeks after ordering, even though I ordered overnight shipping.
-My glasses do not accurately reflect my prescription.
I purchased two prescription sunglasses on December 15th for overnight delivery, but they still showed "arrived at lab" December 16th after ordering them.
I reached out for cancellation and was told they only refund partial purchase cost and that ordering take 4-7 business days plus shipping. The homepage did not reflect the 4-7 day ordering timeline or the partial refund. The website specifically states "if we have not yet shipped the first box to you, we will cancel your order and refund your purchase."
I paid for overnight shipping on December 15th, and my glasses didn't arrive until 6 weeks later.
My glasses do not accurately reflect my prescription.
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!
