I'm a loyal Warby Parker eyeglass customer. So I'm excited about this, but think value / pricing needs to be re-examined. I currently use Walgreens for my Contact Rx prescriptions and find the prices to be somewhat comparable. Flat pack contacts are somewhat more efficient for travel, but I don't know whether I'd bother compared to my 1-Day Acuvue Moist (as @cardine18 said).
@durjoy Hey, Sara from Warby Parker here! Happy to shed some light on your comment. We spent a lot of time researching various contact lenses to identify a daily disposable lens made with comfort and moisture for the wearer, and we landed on Scout. The lens is packaged in innovative, space-saving flat packs that are easier to transport and store than traditional contact packaging (and produce less waste). Scout pricing is competitive—there are no fluctuating discounts or hidden fees. We also provide free shipping, returns for unopened boxes, and the best-in-class customer service that Warby Parker is known for. We're excited to bring a seamless contacts shopping experience to our customers–whether they purchase Scout or another prescribed brand from us.
What is the benefit of using these over 1-Day Acuvue Moist? I'm currently very satisfied with them, they cost about the same, and wanted to understand any "killer features" these have versus other daily contact lenses.
@cardine18 Thanks for your question! I'm Sara and I work on Warby Parker's Social Media team. In comparison to the lens you're referencing, Scout is made from a different material. Both lenses are similar in their oxygen permeability levels and have similar fitting parameter. Scout pricing is competitive—there are no fluctuating discounts or hidden fees. Scout’s packaging also produces 80% less waste than traditional contact lens packaging in the market. Finding the right contact lens is a very personal experience and we always recommend speaking with your doctor to find out which lens might be best for your needs!
Glad to see another option besides Hubble - which I've used for a few years but have had multiple bad experiences including shipping delays and customer service who misses the mark - hoping Scout delivers the polished experience Warby is known for :)
It's like watching someone play monopoly, they just bought the whole set and are ready to put hotels on them
Awesome! As a big warby parker fan and longtime contact wearer / subscriber I'm excited to try them
