Most people buy contact lenses from their optician. The opticians often mark them up by 50%+. You can buy the exact same contact lenses you are wearing online, at a much lower cost.
Lenspricer helps you identfiy which online store is currently the cheapest for your exact contact lenses, compared across different package sizes, divided into a monthly cost for a super easy comparison.
In EU, many of the big optician chains sell their contact lenses as private labels, but in reality the contact lenses are well-known brands. On Lenspricer, I've created a big database showing which contact lenses correspond to which, making it easy to compare prices, even for private labels. These private labels are often sold at an even higher mark-up, and I've seen many cases where the savings are 80%+ by buying the original brand online instead.
I started Lenspricer because I discovered that the contact lenses I had been paying $68 per month for, for many years, was being sold online for $32 per month. The exact same contact lenses. When talking to my network, I realized many are paying this and didn't know buying them online was an option. So I set out to make buying them online much easier.
Lenspricer exists for 30 countries, and collects prices from 5-10+ stores in each country. You can select your country in the top right corner.
The monetization plan is to get affiliate deals with the contact lens stores. In the US I don't currently have with the majority of stores, but in the EU I'm getting more and more deals.
Let me know what you think! Any and all feedback is super helpful. Thanks :-).
I actually had a very first version where I showed the price "per lens". Would that have made it less confusing for you at first glance?
