The store didn't have my contact lens…
The store didn't have my contact lens in stock for me to try. I was told that "we don't do that anymore. " They said that they give a sample along with the prescription all at once. When I picked the contact lens up, I was not shown how to insert or remove the lens from my eyes. I was given a contact lens case nor a sample size of the solution. This was not the best experience I have had with Stanton.

Hello Cierra. We’re very sorry to hear about your experience and sincerely apologize for the lack of support you received with your contact lenses. This is not the level of service we aim to deliver, and we'll be escalating this internally to ensure it's thoroughly reviewed. We appreciate your feedback.

I called to ensure that my insurance was taken there and the lady told me yes and made an appointment for the same day. I had my exam and then when it was time to pick my glasses I was told my insurance want not taken there and that I had to pay out of pocket. Why wasn’t I told this at the beginning of the process when they asked for my insurance card.

Hello Antoinette, we’re very sorry to hear about the confusion regarding your insurance coverage and the frustration this caused. We understand how important it is to have accurate information upfront, especially when it comes to coverage and out-of-pocket costs. Thank you for sharing your feedback—it really helps us improve. We hope to have the opportunity to serve you better in the future.
I don't feel this is an honest…
I don't feel this is an honest business. I've noticed over many years that they just make up prices if you have insurance. I started doing tests to see, and after they told me the lowest price possible, I said my HSA only had $200 less than their "lowest price" and magically the price was lowered to what I had. How nice of them right? Wrong. They literally charge the most they think you will pay. Worst part is I didn't pick up my glasses for 4 months because I was so frustrated, and they didn't care or contact me because they already got my money, so they didn't care if I ever pick them up. After 10 years I'm done with Stanton.
