I tried ordering a few pairs and none of them would let me buy standard lenses w the free promo. Did I do something wrong? My prescription is not super severe but they kept saying the standard lenses were not available in my prescription (-4) . Off to Zenni I go?

The included standard polycarbonate lens is available for prescriptions that fall within the following ranges:
SPH (0.00 to +4.00) and CYL (0.00 to -2.00)
SPH (0.00 to -4.00) and CYL (0.00 to -3.00)
For prescriptions outside of these ranges you will need to upgrade to a higher index lens at an additional cost. This will be noted when you enter your prescription. The available prescription ranges for the blue light reflecting polycarbonate lenses are:
SPH (0.00 to +4.00) and CYL (0.00 to -2.00)
SPH (0.00 to -4.00) and CYL (0.00 to -2.00)
(Also i think changing the currency from USD to CAD, the little flag on the upper right, will save you the currency exchange rate fee on your credit card)

Ah thanks that explains it. I just had my eyes tested today and have just one eye a little worse, so it's -4.25 on one side which killed the deal for me. But I guess for contacts it's -4 on both sides, which is where I got screwed up. I still ordered a pair at 100 all in because I quite liked the style. For people like me with (slightly) higher prescriptions, you can still use the code and it still credits you around $95 off.

How are you creating an account, when there's no Province to select after you select Canada as the country?
Never mind, I changed it once my account was created, but that's not to say their registration page wasn't done right.

Thanks OP. I was able to get a discount on a pair of sunglasses. Mine came out to be $30.95 USD (tax, shipping, and discount included).

They are located in Blaine, WA, and they are shipping my glasses from downtown Vancouver. It's already shipped 1h after the order.

You can email [email protected] to update your info. They emailed me about my order from that address.
I guess since I entered my entire prescription they didn’t know if I wanted reading glasses or glasses for distance. Wish they did progressive...

Pretty happy with my 1st pair from Kits ($13.90 total). Ordered last June 19 and was delivered 5 days later. Been using it daily since.

Ordered and thanked. I added the lens bundle. I think the UVA/UVB block is especially critical but I added all the others because it's so cheap. $42CAD all in. Can't wait to try em. What is the processing time like for Canadian orders?

So just do it with the upload. If anything, they will email you to ask you if you still want it for the higher price.

My computer glasses came, rather quickly. The quality is quite good; all for $13.90. Kits is most likely taking a big loss. Kudos to them for having this promotion.

Is the anti-scratch worth it? Doubles the price
