Sanne experience

First order arrived within 48 hours with correct lenses and long expiry.

JACKTON OWENS 5/5

Due to my lack of confidence in the quality of the lenses purchased from Alensa, I would not advocate making such a purchase.

Despite the fact that the lenses I purchased are causing my eyes to grow red and my vision to become blurry, I am stuck with them because Alensa will not exchange or refund the lenses I purchased.

I have an incorrect prescription, according to her view, but my prescription is correct, but the lenses are not!

Instead of replacing or refunding my items, they simply stated that they would conduct a quality inspection that would take two months!

It serves absolutely no purpose!

Make your purchase from a different vendor!
