I'm really glad it didn't affect you, honestly. It was super annoying. And you may have been right about the defect. They accepted the return super easily, without the questions that normally (rightfully) come with an unreusable return. Or, alternatively, maybe others have mentioned it, and they altered their process to reduce/resolve the blue tint? Either way, I'm glad it's no longer the case, and, given your experience, I may just try those lenses again at a later date! I've always been impressed with Zenni's quality.
