I was lied to about my order
I was lied to about my order. Been waiting almost a solid month for glasses and 3 weeks for contacts. Paid several hundred dollars for absolutely nothing! Customer service sucks! Ordered didn’t get submitted for 2 1/2 weeks! Head supervisors refuse to respond to emails for complaints or anything else. No way to contact corporate officials when needed per United States laws!

I was told that they would remake my lenses by my current prescription from another optical center. My vision was off with the first purchase. I wasn't given the new prescription that they remade my lenses by and it seems the lenses are still not right.
