Very happy with my contact lenses quality and very speedy delivery. And sweet gummy treats in every delivery box. Just could be a smaller delivery packaging because it doesn't fit in my letterbox

Lenstore are cheaper

Review is based on price only. I have been purchasing from VD 29086815 for years however Lenstore are cheaper same service same lenses.

The reply from VD is ridiculous probably Ai generated and does not make any sense. VD do not manufacture the product. Very simple LENS Store are cheaper !!

Great Prices, Fast Delivery, Every Time

I’ve been ordering my contact lenses from Vision Direct for years and they’ve always been consistently excellent. Their prices are very competitive, often better than other retailers, and delivery is incredibly fast – orders seem to arrive almost before I’ve had time to think about them! The ordering process is simple and reliable, which makes reordering hassle-free. As a nice extra touch, I always appreciate the little bag of Haribo included in the box. It’s a small thing, but it always puts a smile on my face. Highly recommended for great value and service.
