APPALING SERVICE - STAY AWAY FROM THEM

APPALING SERVICE. THEY CHARGED MORE THAN THEY PROMISED. AND PRODUCTS WERE NEVER DELIVERED. 7 WEEKS AND NOTHING. THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE IS NON EXISTENT. ALL YOU GET IS AUTOMATED BOT RESPONSES, CLAIMING THEY CANT FIND MY ORDER, I HAVE NOT USED THE CORRECT EMAIL. ALL ABSOLUTELY RUBBISH. THEY ARE A SCAM. DO NOT USE THEM!

Optic-Blu is based in Cape Town. If you're looking for Optique Blue, this is a different business.

Do not buy this, they are just scamming you

I wish I could give it 0 stars. They up charge you by giving you special deals that when you click on them it automatically charges you without having you confirm if you want it in your cart. After I receive the product, not only does it not block bluelight. They already have pieces fall off. If you want to return it for refund they will tell you that you can only return if it is undamaged and has to get to them in 30 days. The shipping that it got to me took basically a month so its impossible. And you have to cover shipping yourself it is in the TOS tucked away somewhere. Or they offer you a 30% refund and you keep it.

Hi Deevi,

I’m sorry to hear about your experience and completely understand your frustration. However, I believe there may be a mix-up, as our business is not affiliated with OptiqBlue. We’ve received several messages from customers who may have mistakenly purchased from them instead of us.

Could you please double-check your order confirmation or the website where you placed your order? If your purchase was made with OptiqBlue, I recommend reaching out to their customer support for assistance.

We take customer satisfaction seriously, and I’d really appreciate it if you could update your review once this is clarified. Please let me know if I can assist in any way.

Hi Isabel, we're terribly sorry to hear that your glasses haven't yet arrived. They were shipped out to you on the same day your order was placed. I have had a look at your tracking number and our delivery partner seems to be struggling to deliver to you at the business address given and are unable to reach you. Please can you urgently email us at info@optic-blu.com with your contact number as we are also unable to reach you on the number provided. Thanks so much, Team OB.

Fast delivery, good quality.

The delivery was fast and the products arrived in good, safe packaging. The complimentary cleaning kit is also high quality. Took away a star as one of the two glasses delivered was not the style choice (colour) selected online when ordering.

Very good

Very good. I also bought blue-light glasses from Takealot with another name brand and when putting next to each other they were the exact same glasses having three dots in the nose bridge. The Takealot ones were just almost half the price of Optic-Blu's so Optic-Blu is definitely overpriced and next time I'll first check Takealot and recommend Takealot to others first as well.

I would have understood if the Optic-Blu glasses were of better quality but they are exactly the same.

Still think they're great and my son loves them!

Hi Marni, thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review. We are chuffed that your son loves his glasses. We are a small business and as such we are not trying to compete with a corporation like Takealot (Although I think the price difference is due to them having being marked down on TA).

Our objective is to offer our clients value in terms of the service and customer journey experienced when purchasing from us. Our free and fast delivery, branded packaging, branded pouch and anti-mist spray kit etc accounts for our price since we are selling more than just a pair of glasses. Thank you so much for your purchase and for supporting our small business.

damaged during delivery

the glasses i ordered were slightly damaged during delivery and as a result they sat skew on my face. I emailed optic blu about this and they replied quickly and we’re very helpful. however, they didn’t send me a new pair because they told me the glasses i had were out of stock, which doesn’t make sense since on the website i could still order myself another pair. they did however offer to send me another more expensive pair as a result of my pair being out of stock. i however didn’t like this other pair, so i told them i’ll just keep my skew ones. they did however give some suggestions on how to fix my damaged ones. they were very helpful indeed and the glasses are super cute!

Hi Ryan, thank you so much for your review. We are sorry that your glasses arrived damaged as communicated with you we have since changed our boxes so that they can better withstand the courier process so that we don't risk it happening to any other customers. Regarding the glasses being available online - we were out of stock and removed the shape from our site (probably after you checked) if not we would have 100% done an exchange for you hence we offered you a more expensive pair to make up for it. Customer service is our top priority so thank you very much for trusting us with your business and we hope to serve you again in the near future.

Hi Sinah, we are sorry that you feel that the frames are too lightweight. The lightweight frames are actually a feature of our glasses so that they can be more comfortable when wearing them for long periods of time. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review and for joining the fight against blue light.
