User Reviews

Users praise strong, responsive customer support and affordable pricing, but repeatedly report app bugs, prescription handling errors, intrusive marketing, billing glitches, and shipping delays. The service offers clear value and convenience when it works, yet reliability and communication need substantial improvement.
Pros
  • Excellent, 24/7 customer support with real people reachable by phone or text and fast responses.
  • Affordability and value, including low-cost express eye exams and generally cheaper contact lens pricing.
  • Convenience and ease of use, with quick ordering and digital exam options that many users find helpful.
Cons
  • Persistent app reliability problems (bugs, long loading times, and occasional freezes) that hinder usage.
  • Prescription verification and order handling issues, including wrong prescriptions and order cancellations or delays.
  • Aggressive or excessive marketing texts and emails that feel intrusive to users.
  • Billing and refund problems, such as incorrect charges, Apple Pay issues, and slow or disputed refunds.
  • Shipping delays or inconsistent fulfillment, with orders taking longer than expected during verification.

Every time I open the app it opens right at the checkout cart with 12 boxes of contacts for each eye ready to purchase. The purchase is over $1200 and all I have to do is place the order. But my question is why does the app always open in the cart ready for me to purchase 24 boxes of contacts? I have removed it from the cart every time I open the app. And when I open it again it’s there in the checkout cart ready for me to purchase. Please fix this because I do not want to accidentally purchase 24 boxes of contacts.

terrible experience. went through probably 10 attempts to do the virtual eye exam and still never got to the end. seems there are endless issues and errors, or endless loading on many steps… thought this was a quick way to get contacts but doesn’t seem to be any more efficient than just going to a real eye doctor as opposed to this company faking it. 0/10, do NOT recommend to anyone. just go to a real eye doctor and skip this BS… it is incredibly frustrating and inefficient.

Stop asking users to enable notifications EVERY SINGLE TIME THE APP IS USED! We’ve disabled Notifications for a reason, ACCEPT IT! Fix the tax and charging issues when placing orders and paying via ApplePay. Stop reporting negative reviews that tell you about app bugs you haven’t fixed in 5 years because you don’t like 1 star reviews… just fix your app bugs.
