I had a great experience after a terrible one with Lens Crafters. They were able to fix my glasses to include anti reflective for an affordable price. I would definitely go with them again.

Ordered a pair of glasses with prescription lenses... alright, that part went ok. Took about 7 days to arrive. Unfortunately that's where the good times ended. Took them to my optician to ensure everything was made correctly - they were not. The PD, axis, optical centre AND prescription were ALL incorrect. Emailed Customer Service... first they asked for PROOF from the optician that they were made incorrectly. Not off to a good start. After scanning in and sending the scribbled notes she made, they then tried to pawn me off a second pair with (supposedly) the right prescription. A side note - this was my 4th time in a year trying to order a pair of glasses online & I DIRELY need them for everything I do. I said no, I just want the refund. Over a month and a half later & I'm STILL waiting for my money back - PLUS I had to pay out of pocket to return the damn things. Wouldn't recommend this horrid company to my worst enemies.

bad services bad product bad quality and not cheap. Most of all, I purchase two glasses that I cannot see in them hence useless and they blame it on my prescription. I have 3 pairs of glasses with the same prescription so I do not understand.

Optically is a criminal organization practices thievery through digital world across the vast internet with impunity. I had purchased prescription glasses and only to find they charged twice without my permission. Contacting them after the purchase is also impossible. Repeated calls and emails, no replies. The invoice they sent after the purchase disappeared from the email- a technique I have yet to figure out how they did it? Delivery date came and went, no glasses delivered. FEAR & FRUSTRATION - best describes OPTICALLY.

Hi, Please share your order number for us to check the issue, there is no way we can charge you even once (charging twice is out of question) as the payment is only accepted via PayPal and the PalPal transition can be initiated only by the PayPal account holder. There is definitely some confusion over the payment here, please help us fix this for you.

HORRIBLE!!! I wish I could give this company a negative five stars! I should have read the reviews here before purchasing.

I have been processing an order to send to optically and decided to contact the Better Business Bureau where I found out they give it D+, the lowest rating available. Beware and be sure to check with BBB before you order. Maybe they have fixed the problem but with a 1.18 out of 5 rating on Reviews.io, I very much doubt it. They are seemingly a very bad company providing all reviews are objective, and this coupled with BBB rejection certainly seems to support the very negative reviews. Close call for me.

I ordered my glasses in the middle of July. It's now the middle of September and I have not yet received them. The personnel are impossible to deal with - they haven't let me cancel my order and require that I have a "chat" with them on the phone. I have put in a refund request through Paypay and will be making sure EVERYONE knows this company is TERRIBLE.

I ordered a pair of progressives from Optically. Unfortunately their promise of 'Fast Delivery' and 'Order Status Updates via Email' are not true in my case. This has been the longest I have waited for pretty much any online purchase ever. The company brands itself as a Canadian company, and as I live in the GTA I thought I'd try and support them. When I called the customer service line to inquire as to my order they informed me that my glasses 'had just cleared customs' so 'should be there in a day or two'. What??!!?? Why would the order need to clear customs if put together in Canada? Several days later, my glasses are still not here. Perhaps this company is operating in a parallel universe where the planet revolves a little more slowly, but even then, why are there no e-mail updates as promised? The online order tracker does a woeful job of indicating status of the order once it has been 'dispatched'. I doubt that this online tracker is actually even a real representation of where the order is within the company as my trust in the organization as an online retailer is now extremely low. I should have read these reviews before I ordered. If my glasses arrive I'll update this review with a note about the quality of the product. As of now though... DO NOT USE THIS SITE TO ORDER FROM!

SCAMMERS!!!! I placed an order on their website to have three pairs of my designer glasses reglazed and sent them off the same day to the address they told me to send them. The website said it would take two to three business days to get them back, after two weeks I started calling... since then I have called everyday and nobody ever answers. Yesterday I received an email from them asking for more money, I responded and haven’t heard anything back. Its been almost 3 weeks since initial order. I now fear there is no chance of me ever getting back my expensive glasses, I can recoup the $150 I paid via pay pal. It was one of the first sites listed on google and had great reviews … don't be fooled its a FRAUD!!

It is an outrage that Google surfaces this company on its first page. The company is a scam. I sent them frames for reglazing. The package was received by them on June 24. The website promises email updates. I received none. I called on June 29. A man said he would investigate where my glasses were and call me back in a few hours. He never did. I wasn't able to call again until the follow Friday, July 5. The woman who picked up the phone said she had no record of having received my frames. When I gave her the tracking number from Canada Post that proves they accepted the package on June 24, she said should would investigate and call me back in a half hour. She never did. I have placed a claim with Paypal and fully expect for be refunded what I paid them in advance. I fully expect not to receive my frames -- they are valuable and they are now presumed lost. The company is a scam and by sending me to this scam at the top of its search results, they have shaken my confidence in the company. It allows itself to be gamed by fraudsters.

I ordered a pair of prescription sunglasses from them in June of 2018, and they were good. They came in 2 weeks, was good quality, the price was great and I'm still using them a year later. This influenced me to go through optically to purchase my regular glasses and that was when the headache started. The ordering process was simple and intuitive for sure. About a week after I ordered I got an email, saying that my frame got broken in the process of installing the lens, and it was the last one in their inventory. They said I can choose any other frame I want and they'll credit me $10. I did that and indeed got a $10 refund on my credit card. To put into perspective, I had paid extra for the highest index Kodak lenses they had available. This would ensure that they would be thin and light for my pretty strong prescription. When I got the glasses the lenses were very thick. They were definitely not high index. Kodak themselves said that all their lenses should be delivered with a certificate of authenticity, which this was not, leading me to believe they aren't real. I wore them for a few days and the prescription and all was fine, but then I noticed at some points where I look everything gets blurry. Upon closer inspection I realized the lens was coated unevenly. This was a problem. I called optically and they told me they'll call me back (which never happened). I called every single day and never got help with the issue. I just went through PayPal and filed a dispute, to which optically never responded so I got a full refund. Although I am quite happy with my sunglasses, it seems the quality of service has changed at optically, and I will be switching online glasses stores.

Glasses took a month and a half to get to me. No updates where ever emailed to me customer service is laughable. Finally get my glasses after 1.5 months and there wrong and no one answers the phone. Shop elsewhere. Obviously a fraudulent company that my visa company can now deal with

What an unpleasant experience! I ordered lenses from them one month ago to be put onto my own frames (which I sent to them and they received after 1-2 days). I have yet get my glasses back! I have called every week since I placed my order to get an update. Every time, they claim that my glasses will be shipped back to me within a couple of days and that I will get progress updates. I never got any updates unless I called and one month later, no glasses and no offer to compensate me (or even to ship them back by express post once they are finally ready!!!). Their website claims that they ship your glasses back to you within 1-2 days, after receiving your frames. Apparently not. Hopefully, I will one day see my frames again, they were quite expensive! Frankly, I'm starting to think I'll never see those frames again, and that this whole thing is a scam! Very frustrated to think I could have ordered from any other company (there are several with similar price ranges) and I'd have my glasses by now.

WARNING this company is a scam. They claim a satisfaction warranty that they do not adhere to. After leaving a review of my experience I was contacted by another employee (Melvyn) who quoted the satisfaction guarantee but then told me unless I got an optometrist to check my prescription they would not help me. When I asked if they would refund me for the Optometrist appraisal if the prescription was incorrect I was ignored. That was back in October and I have not heard from them since. Honestly it was like $160 which is not the end of the world. But they treated me so badly that I cannot let it go until everyone knows to avoid this company.

I purchased prescription glasses from Optically for my daughter, but when they arrived caused her to have double vision. Optically agreed to a partial refund if I sent the glasses back to them . I couriered the glasses to them (my cost), which they received on November 5th (they confirmed this). Weekly emails from them assured me that the refund was being processed yet nothing ever materialized. In December I started calling them and they would tell me the same thing several times a week (that the refund would be processed in a day or two). Now it is Jan 10th and they are no longer answering emails or phone calls and I still have not received the refund. I finally got a refund after having to go through the Better Business Bureau and filing a complaint.
