Contact lens have been very helpful and giving me the best price and sometimes a discount. Don:t like the shipping charge for such a small box and the other charge.

“Total SCAM: "Processing Fee" increased the price 90%!”

Steve m.
8/28/22

Contact Lens King is a classic "bait and switch." They advertise contact lenses for a heavily-discounted price -- then when you go through checkout, they add a "processing fee" that nearly doubles the price. My final price for 10 boxes of contacts started at $237 then jumped to $455. The website explains the processing fee with a long, convoluted explanation about trying to generate "increased traffic" to their website. This is pure scam.

Glad to seen there is no 'handling charge'. If its included in the price of the contacts that is fine (which it probably is). At least it makes comparing against other websites/companies equal.

Reason I chose this business:

Have already established an account. Pricing seems fair. I don't really shop price but maybe once a year. Next order will be a year so I'll check your prices against others. I already know the account my eye doctor has established for me is trying to ripping me off so I'll check one or two other websites.

This year my doctor has raised my contact lens price by about 50%. After being run in circles by my optometrist for an entire week (trying to keep my prescription from me) its good to see something run smoothly. Maybe this will get my blood pressure back down.

Reason I chose this business:

Seems to be a straightforward website and reasonable pricing.

I was able to utilize the reorder option to make my experience quick and seamless. They arrived two days after they had shipped just like I had paid for! Always great service (:

This is the second time I've ordered. I mistakenly ordered -3.75 & -4.00 instead of +3.75 & +4.00. My doctor indicated that he never received a confirmation request. Contact Lens King claims they faxed it and did not receive a response and that the law allows them to send the order if they do not get a response in 8-hours. This is DEAD WRONG. The law requires them to either confirm the prescription with the prescriber or obtain a copy of the actual prescription from the patient. They did not contact me to obtain a copy of the prescription and sent the wrong ones.

To make matters worse, when asked about comparing previous orders, the representative stated that they do not check previous orders because prescriptions can change. I pointed out that while a prescription may change somewhat, it is not likely to change from -3.75 to a +3.75 and that would indicate that a mistake is obvious. She just reiterated that they do not look at previous orders.

All in all, because they did not follow the law and require a copy of the prescription to be sent prior to sending the lenses, I'm now out a lot of money because they won't accept opened boxes for return.

Convenient, fast and easy. I was skeptical at first but once you use them there's no difference with the ones you get from the optometrist except the price.

Reason I chose this business:

Cheaper than at the optometrist

I've been wearing SofLens Toric Lens for years but paying more than double the price. I was a bit skeptical to order online but they are exactly the same as the ones from my optometrist. I will definitely continue ordering from ContactLensKing.

I needed to change my prescription so I called customer service and the person I spoke with was very helpful and made the changes for me.

Reason I chose this business:

Price is way cheaper than the optometrist.

I use to buy my lenses from lenses.com for over 5 years. No discount, no special offers to long term customers. CLS is great with prices and customer service.

And I did check many of the "cheaper" web sites. CLK was most cost effective at final price. I gladly bought mine here!

From $10.95 a box to $23 a box is a big jump. You're less expensive than anyone else. Why not just be up front about the cost. $26 processing fee and another $10 for shipping? WTH is that?

Reason I chose this business:

Searched for Accuvue's and clicked on your link. I purchased based on cost.

HI Chris. I do apologize. Recently, we’ve noticed that our competitors have introduced and implemented this tool, used as a means of allowing their upfront display prices on various online advertising channels to appear more competitive. As we know, when a company advertises at a lower price, there is increased traffic to their website. Upon the realization that this strategy was being used, we at Contact Lens King stood firmly against applying such a practice. However, in spite of the fact that we offer the lowest bottom line prices, we experienced a decrease in traffic and total orders. Through re-evaluation, and despite our discomfort, we have made the tough decision to adopt the practice as well. Contact Lens King is firmly committed to offering the lowest bottom line prices online, and we want our customers to rest assured that through us, you will always see significant savings in your pocketbook - even with the fee.
We totally understand that this additional fee can be frustrating, or even infuriating, but we invite you to compare our bottom line prices with our competitors. We promise we won’t disappoint you!

Hi Jason. Thank you for ordering with Contact Lens King. I do apologize for the delay with the manufacturer. The email you received was an automatic email that is sent 15 days after order asking about your experience. Those emails do not know if your product has been shipped or delayed with the manufacturer. Unfortunately, your manufacturer has advised of a production delay but has not released a date of arrival. We know how frustrating this delay can be, that is why we are putting in daily calls in hopes to get more information. Again, we sincerely apologize for any inconveniences this may have caused.

As a customer manager, i value how my employees interact with the customer and those that I've have had contact with in your company have been amazing!

Reason I chose this business:

Was encourage by a friend to give your company a try, pricing has played a role in why i continue to purchase from your company, surcharge seems a little high but i'm still happy with the pricing, didn't know if there is a discount for seniors that would be helpful..

I ordered contacts from here at the beginning of March and still haven't received them, i have been in contact with with them multiple times in the week. They keep putting my call off and having me speak to someone else.

FINALLY the "manager" Adam call me back after two weeks only to tell me they should have been delivered already and there was nothing they could do to help me. I spent over $300 on contacts that i did NOT receive and the "manager" would not do anything to help me, he just kept telling me to file a claim with my bank if i wanted my money back and that contact lens king would not be helping me with this issue. I have never witnesses such a level of ignorance and disrespect from a "manager" at a company before, it really makes me think something shady is going on there.

The other associates i spoke to were polite but did nothing to help me except reroute me to other employees throughout the weeks. This company is not worth the headache, i wish i just paid more and ordered from a reputable company.

Easy and quick! Online ordering was great and they arrived promptly. (With other online retailer I had to wait over 4 weeks to receive my contacts although they were in stock.).

HI Mary. We do apologize if you have had any trouble with your lenses. Unfortunately we do not produce the lens, we do order them direct from the manufacture and each lens is made individually so imperfections do happen. If you have any trouble with the lens please reach out to customer service either phone, 1-800-352-0255 or email customerservice@contactlensking.com for further assistance.
