Based on their website, they have a customer service department and you should be able to reach someone within 14 business days if you have an issue with your order to get it rectified.. ha!
Lensmart has no such department.
I have sent 3 emails to them since receipt of my order and since mailed my order back to no avail - I didn't want a refund, i just needed smaller frames for my child sized face - no reply. I'm out $120 and some really cool frames and now they're out a customer and a negative review.
***BUYER BEWARE***
After posting this review there has been contact made, however with each reply comes 'contact customer service' and we will resolve for you and now a no-return due to the frames I chose...
again, my issue is the size of the frame - pop the damn lenses out & adjust for a smaller frame. How is anyone to know what lenses are 'special order' as you say VS non special order?
My package was already returned to sender and should be in your warehouse.
I want to ensure that other online shoppers don't take a chance on your company with all the red tape and terrible customer service they will receive.

Sorry for not giving you a good customer experience! We check the frames you ordered are special offer. Special offer glasses cannot be returned or exchanged. The frames on flash sale are special offer, they have their special page, and we have stated it on the page. And in the email you just said the frame is not suitable. Thank you very much for your understanding and patience~

My prescription is incorrect and they…
My prescription is incorrect and they told me because I got a discount they won't correct them. I spent $100 waited a month to get them for nothing. Buyer beware!

If I could give no stars, I would.
If I could give no star, I would.
This company is entirely unhelpful when it comes to an incorrect lens/prescription. I have ONE lens that is entirely incorrect, reached out to customer service and all they say is “Sorry, we can’t help with any glasses that were on sale.” Every pair of glasses on their website has a sale on it, so I guess that’s their way of not helping if you have an issue, even if it is due to their fault.
One lens costs them cents on the dollar to make. Which is all I was asking for. No remake, no discount on a new lens, no partial refund, nothing. They do not hold up anything that they state in their returns and exchanges policy if you got even a penny discount on your order.
Do not waste your money, it is not worth the gamble on if there will be a mistake or not, even if it is beyond your control.
Customer service does not care about your issues, AT ALL.
**Editing to add after their response: I wish I could upload pictures here to show my CORRECT prescription shown in my order confirmation. This response from the company full of lies only further proves my point. This company is exhausting. I don’t understand how “customer service” could act this way towards paying customers. Yikes.
For a review with pictures, since I went on to be accused of photoshopping...go to sitejabber page for lensmart. (https : // www . sitejabber . com / reviews / lensmartonline . com)
It's very telling that every review but one on SiteJabber for Lensmart is 1 star. I'll take the loss on the glasses just to never have to deal with this company again. I have moved to another site to order my glasses and have spent hundreds just due to the caring customer service I recieved. Lensmart rather lose a customer instead of just remaking ONE lens. Still so insane to me. Either way I won't stand for this company bashing me by saying I went out of my way to photoshop something just to cover their own a$$. This is absolutely isane behavior coming from a company.

Sorry for not giving you a good customer experience! We check you filled wrong prescription. We can not change the order information filled by customer, you also can review your order details. Our policy has stated the replacement caused by the wrong and unusable customized lens caused by the customer's personal reasons requires the customer to pay the extra cost of re-customizing the lens and the shipping fee for reissue. And we check the frame you ordered is special offer, Our website has stated the special offer glasses cannot be returned or exchanged. If you have any questions, please contact our customer service and we will do our best to solve it for you! Thank you very much understanding~
Update:
If you don't mind, we also can send your order receipt link here, you also can check the prescription you filled in the order. You filled in the prescription of "-2.25" and "+1.50" in the order. We cannot modify the customer's order information. The screenshot of the order you sent us with the prescription of "-2.25" and "-1.50" shows obvious signs of modification. If it is possible to send pictures here, we will also be happy to upload the pictures you sent for everyone to confirm. We are a legitimate company and we have no reason to deceive people because of this order.

Lenses are incorrect
Lenses are incorrect. I am so disappointed. And then to discover that they don’t even really stand behind their product. Customer service is just giving excuses, claiming part of the order is not returnable. I ordered three pair of glasses and none of the lenses are correct. I don’t trust them and want a refund!!

I ordered glass they did not make it…
I ordered glass they did not make it before I moved and were returned to Lensmart so I sent them a email with my new address and they were going to send them! They never came so I sent another email just wanting a refund and they said no because I did not verify my address from a email and 3 months had passed. I never got a verification email Order No.: C92050805653753091

This company is such a scam
This company is such a scam! Do not order from them. I have got nothing by harassment trying to get a full refund from them. The emails and crap they throw at you is unbelievable. Total scam!
Response from LensmartMay 20, 2024
Sorry for not giving you a good customer experience! We have stated our policy on our official website. If you want to return for refund, the refund are 70% of the lens and 100% of the frame. Could you provide your order number so that we can check the order for you? If you have any questions, please contact our customer service and we will do our best to solve it for you! Thank you very much understanding~

!!BUYER BEWARE!!
**EDIT AT THE BOTTOM**
**2ND EDIT AT BOTTOM**
!!BUYER BEWARE!! The only reason I am giving 1 star is because I had to in order to leave my comment here, and trust this won't be the only place I leave a comment about this AWFUL COMPANY! My mom who is a senior citizen that is on a low, fixed income needed to order glasses for an affordable price. I'm on disability and can't help her financially or I would. So I thought this company since I saw all good reviews (that I don't believe anymore). Her glasses were so bad, the prescription was messed right up! So I started the process of trying to do a return. That dragged on and on and on. Them taking days to reply to emails, them asking me for little info one email, then a little more the next email, so on and so on, and also asking me for the same info more than a few times, asking me to send pictures of my mom wearing the glasses more than once, asking for the prescription 3 different times, it just dragged on... Then they said we had to cover the shipping cost and they don't accept any courier services. So it would have to be through Canada Post and that was going to cost a small fortune! So end result was my mom was willing to settle for readers instead and leave it at that. So they offer to send out the lenses free of charge (that is a joke) along with a linked youtube video of how to take lenses out to put new ones in. It was a ZEELOOL video on youtube and these lenses have 1 tiny screw on each side and I don't mean on the arms either. So I can't get them out! Also one of the screws came stripped! So my mom who is a senior, on a low, fixed income is left with useless glasses and useless lenses and she is out of her money! Over $100 for actual garbage because she can't use any of it! This is a rip off company and I am going to take the time to leave this on every social media platform that I have and I will create new ones just to for this! I will also make a video of all of the emails of them asking for the same info, the same prescription, pictures, etc over and over... I have it all, it's PROOF that they are a rip off and don't stand by their word! PLUS THEY OWE HER MONEY because she was ordering progressive glasses and settled for readers! There is a pretty BIG PRICE DIFFERENCE! I'm also going to be going to the BBB and the The International Association of Better Business Bureaus. I will not let this company rip my mom off like this! This is also copied to be pasted all over! Also I did a print-screen as well!
My reply.
1 You guys messed up her prescription, period!
2 I started the return process and just the emails alone took forever. One email a day, asking and re-asking for the same information. You guys dragged that on for far too long. There were days you didn't even respond and you say your customer service is 24/7 online. That's a lie.
3 The cost of shipping initially was covered until it wasn't.
4 You don't accept courier services so I would have had to send them priority with Canada Post and that was going to cost a small fortune because you requested you get them in 7 days.
5 You offered new lenses and that I could put them in. Yes, I said yes not knowing that my mom's glasses were received already DAMAGED! The right screw on the side of the lens (not arm) was already stripped! Because they were purchased from you I can't get any optical vision center to touch them. So they are useless!
6 YOU ARE FRAUDULENT YOU RIP LOW INCOME PEOPLE OFF YOU TAKE ADVANTAGE OF SENIOR CITIZENS and I am going to file a claim with the BBB and the IABBB. I'm also going to start a group to get everyone together that's been ripped off by you to see if we, together as a large group of people can do something about your horrible company! All I wanted was for you to take your cheap, badly made, useless glasses, lens, and I even said we will return the glasses chains and case since they weren't even used for a full refund. The cheap crap we got costs you pennies while my mom is a senior citizen on a fixed low income. Your reply here and the countless others is very generic. I don't believe that you're actually sorry. You guys are getting free money from people for nothing. You will be sorry though. I won't let this go.
My reply (again)
1 I have all of the emails, yes I did state in the email that the screw is stripped! I did, and I have it! I did not know until I went to change the lens, and how would I know? I don't live with my mom, and SHE CAN'T SEE TO SEE IF THERE WERE ANY DEFECTS OR DAMAGE!
2 Readers are CHEAPER than PROGRESSIVES! That is what she was willing to settle for. She didn't want you to try to send her new progressives because at that point we were unsure of what she would get, and how could you possibly mess up readers? Also you wanted us to pay for your mistake!
3 I sent you the proper PD and prescription.
4 I just went and looked at ''your official website''and I took a print-screen where it CLEARLY STATES 24/7 CUSTOMER SERVICE!
Response from LensmartMay 16, 2024
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Our shipping policy has stated that if the customer wants to return the product for a refund or exchange the product, they need to pay for the shipping fee. And before we reissue the lens to you, we have confirmed with you whether you can install the lens yourself, and you said you can install the lens yourself. And in the previous communication, we asked you the question to help you adjust the lens for free, but you asked to change the lens type. If you change the lens type, you need to pay the lens re-making fee. We have helped you apply for a special change of the lens type for free. We are also sorry that you cannot install the lens after receiving it, but we confirmed with you before shipping that you can install the lens yourself. And the video of installing the lens is just a reference, which has nothing to do with the brand. Regarding the reissued order, if you want to return the product for a refund, the refund amount is 50% of the original payment amount. For more details, please refer to our return policy: https://www.lensmartonline.com/about/return-policy/
If you have any questions, please contact our customer service and we will do our best to solve it for you! Thank you very much understanding~
Update:
1. We have customized the lenses according to the prescription you filled in, but you did not provide an accurate PD measurement chart.
2. The content of each email is different. At the beginning, we proposed to adjust the lenses for you, but you said you wanted to change the lens type. We answered every question you had. In addition, the official website has stated the working hours of customer service. We are not online 24 hours a day, and there is a time difference between us. This is not something we can control.
3. We have never said that the return shipping fee can be reimbursed. Regarding the return shipping fee, our official website has a clear policy statement.
4. We just do not accept returns through UPS, and other return methods are acceptable. This does not affect your choice of other cheaper logistics methods.
5. You did not send us an email to communicate with us about the problem with the screws of the frame. If there is a problem with the frame you receive, you can contact us and we will arrange a reissue for you. But you did not mention this in the email.
6. I am sorry for the bad shopping experience. If you want to return the goods and refund, please contact our customer service staff to arrange follow-up matters. In addition, from the delivery of the order to our subsequent communication, you did not say that the frame was damaged. You contacted us again after you received the replacement lenses, and we didn't know anything at that time. You wrote us a long comment.
Update:
We have already said that if the frame is damaged, you can contact us within the specified time and we will arrange a replacement for you. But you emailed us after receiving the replacement lens to say that there was a problem with the frame, and you did not send us evidence photos, and you did not wait for us to reply to you, and you directly wrote us a bad review. At this time, it has been a month since the order was delivered. According to our regulations, if the customer wants to change the frame type, he needs to pay the lens re-making fee, which has nothing to do with the price of the original purchased lens. If you do not want to adjust the lens, you can also return the product for a refund. We do not force you to redo the lens. The appropriate PD you mentioned is not written on the original prescription, which does not mean it is the correct PD value. You have not sent us the PD measurement chart, so we cannot judge. We need accurate PD only to be able to customize lenses more accurately. Our official website clearly states that our working hours are Mon. - Sat. 4:30 pm - 1:30 am next day (PST).
