Impossible to contact

published

I ordered a lens replacement of 2 pairs of glasses. When they arrived one pair was someone else's. For the past 10 days, I've been having to chase them up to fix this.
1. Phone number NEVER gets answered during office hours and has no voice mail working
2. Emails take 2-3 days to respond (currently 5 days)
3. They don't even know where my glasses are located.
4. I've had someone elses glasses waiting here for instructions on where to send them for 10 days
5. They called me back just once (7.20pm at night) and have not called again. Expecting me to ring - see above about their number not getting answered.



I've been pretty patient and forgiving but am not getting extremely frustrated with their lack of customer service.

Hideous company

published

One star because I can't leave none! Hideous company. I ordered my prescription lenses with transitions. What arrived eventually was a pair of sunglasses (but I had been charged the fee for transitions) with the thickest lenses in the cheapest frames you've ever seen! Many almost illiterate emails later I asked them to honour their, "If you are not delighted with your glasses you get your money back". I had to go though Paypal to get it.

Good value for money

published

I have been buying glasses online for 5 years. I regularly sit on them/lose them/scratch them as a result I prefer to buy in bulk. They have regular promotions which make them good value for money. Optically are one of the better companies I've dealt with and have accurate delivery estimations compared to some other sites. Like all cheaper glasses the quality is average but what I expect for the price.

Easy and reliable

published

i was surprised at how easy their website was to use i quickly found quite a few different styles i liked typed in my prescription payed for my purchase.
I had now problems with my order at all. They arrive about a week later and the prescription was perfect.
Given the price point compared to shopping in a traditional shop i was able to buy more pairs of glasses than i usually would have and now i have a different style for whatever mood or outfit Im in :)

Great quality for cheap prescriptions

published

I have been a returning customer to Optically for years, purely for the fact that their glasses are brilliant if you're like me and don't have much money to spend on prescription glasses.

Some of the best glasses I have bought

published

After being hounded by optical stores to buy their glasses I found Optically. The quality is second to none, reasonably priced and the frames and lenses are of top quality.

Great for re-lensing

published

This company re-lens glasses so as my prescription changes I dont have to buy new frames, saving me money. I have had them re-lensed twice and been happy both times.

Sturdy

I was very happy with the help I received. The glasses are more sturdy than other online purchases I have made. Which is why I keep coming back. The good prices are also another reason I come back. I also like that it is an Australian store.

Very Happy with Optically

published

Purchased from Optically a few times now. Customer service has been very good even when they had taken a bit longer to remake a pair of glasses that did not meet their expectations. They kept me informed & did offer some form of compensatory bonus. Well done to Optically as I am very happy with them.

It was easy to find what I wanted with the categories. There seemed to something there for everyone too, a nice range of products. The glasses I ordered are of a good quality and hold up well against me dropping them all the time.

Questions & Answers

Jan L.

Jan L.asked

I know that the prescription I sent was wrong due to OPSM writing an unreadable prescription. But I have returned the useless glasses immediately and paid extra for another pair. It is now over 3 months since the original order and I STILL don’t have a replacement pair. My question is- will I get the glasses ordered before October 14, or should I open a PayPal dispute right now? Janice Lotstra.

After many, many emails and contact through Optically's Facebook page, the glasses turned up on the very date which was my deadline. My husband is quite happy with them, so all's well that ends well. Throughout the whole nerve wracking process the emails from Optically were polite and reassuring. I do thank them for that.

Hi,
is it true that your 1.61 index plastic lenses are protected with 1-year unconditional replacement (this just seems crazily amazing)?
I mean, will I send my glasses back to you guys when the lenses are damaged so that they are replaced?
Do I need to pay the postage both ways then?

Do you have frames suitable for archery target shooting (prescription to be added)?

1 answer
Optically
Andy K.Optically

Hi,

Thank you for your inquiry, I see that for archery you need Wrap around style glasses the ones that Oakley or the other sports sunglasses manufacturers make.

Now, when it comes to prescription lenses there is a limitation on how much curvature can be added to it hence they cannot be fit in wrap around glasses. However, the solution to this is to use something called as sunglasses inserts. Mostly all premium sunglasses brands offer serval model that offer prescription or RX inserts. These inserts can be fitted with the prescription lenses.

Thanks,
Manager - Optically Pty Ltd
