GBShould have read the reviews before buying Horrible experience. Sent two pairs of eyeglass frames in to Boomerang and both were received and returned as expected. But one frame, an expensive Orgreen, had a loose temple. They said it came like that - it didn't - when I went to an Orgreen retailer, they examined and said the original screw was replaced with one that was not a match. Orgreen fixed the issue. Then a week later, I noticed a crack in the right lense. I complained. Boomerang senta box for releasing for free. And then I received a tracking number when it was shipped. It never arrived and when inquiring, they asked me to wait a full week. It never arrived. To make up for the lost glasses, they sent me a code for 50% off frames and lenses at their sister company Liingo.com. The frames there are cheap and ugly - and basically I am now being pushed to spend even more money with a company that messed up my order 2X. They offered a refund to make up for a partial payment for the old expensive frames, but they never asked how I wanted to receive it and they simply applied it to the healthcare debit card I used for the prescription -- so I cant even access those funds. Overall a lousy experience, I'm out a lot of money, and I should have read the other negative reviews here before dealing with them. If I could give negative stars I would.

GBNew lenses placed on wrong side The folks at Boomerang are friendly enough. But my recent experience was most unpleasant. I sent them my Warby Parker frames to re-lens after my Rx update. I received the new lenses and proceeded to wear them. My vision did not feel right so I stopped wearing them. My optometrist looked at them and found that the lenses were placed in the glasses backwards. I contacted Boomerang and they apologized. Even if they had offered a credit of some sort I am probably not going to use them again.

GBGood idea, Execution not great In theory, the process was a good idea; however, after I received my glasses back I couldn't wear them. The temple was so distorted, where it would hook to my ears, that it hurt whenever I wore them for more than 5 minutes. I brought them to a local optometrist to adjust but it was not the same as it was originally. I did reach out to Boomerang and they advise me the frames were stretch/adjusted to install the new lens. But to the extent that mine were just seem weird and unnecessary. The customer service was really nice, but I won't be using this service again.

GBDamaged my glasses I think the service is a great idea but they damaged my frames significantly. They were returned with cracks all around the lenses and were loose on my head. When I complained, they told me to take them to a local Eyewear store to have them adjusted and Boomerang would give me up to $25. Sorry but $25 cannot fix all the cracks in two pairs of Ray Bans. Good business idea, horribly incompetent business execution.

GBI had prescription lenses put in a pair… I had prescription lenses put in a pair of my frames. They arrived with the markings on them used in the manufacturing process. These markings impede my vision. The Company refused to correct this.
