Made my usual order of contact lenses but I never got them by UPS's fault. Alensa customer service was very helpful and a new parcel was shipped shortly.

Worst experience ever

Worst experience ever. Ordered prescribed glasses with sun clips. It took them much longer to send it than they are saying in their website. Then I received glasses faulty, completely out of shape so I sent it back. But they lost it and I had to wait another month(as per their rules) before I could claim my money back. All of that took over two monts. Summer is nearly over and im here with no sunglasses. At least I just finaly got my money back.

Flawless from start to finish

Flawless from start to finish. I ordered a pair of sunglasses that I'd had my eye on for a while. Ordered on the Saturday evening, I received them on the Tuesday. Well packaged and they look fab! I've actually sent the website onto a few friends, I'll definitely be using them again.
