Great deal for two pair of glasses and…

Great deal for two pair of glasses and free exam. However, exam was delayed for an hour after scheduled appointment. Nevertheless, I will continue to use their services and consider the atmosphere to be pleasant and professional.

Service was good but…

The experience and service for the eye exam was great. The ladies were friendly and helpful. The exam was quick. The issues were with the pickup part of the process. First, we were told I owed more money which was not the case. That error was caught but then they only gave my husband half my order. We had to call and then go back the next day for the other pair.

Doug was AMAZING!!

Doug was AMAZING!!! He was so helpful and after only a couple questions he knew exactly which glasses would work perfect for me. I’ve never been to an Optical shop where I wasn’t instantly overwhelmed by all the options and Doug made it so easy to pick out a frame! 10/10 recommend!!!

I will never go back

I will never go back , I'm upset at my for going back. Wasting more then just time ,
Zero to none communication about anything from the process to the cells to what I was being taxed on from the eye exam to the upsell that's all I heard about but I didn't hear what else did you carry and how did you carry it what was the process Knowing I went there before about 4 years ago thinking the process got better I gave you a second chance and obviously that came on the short end of my end because I left out walking out duped as in I spent almost $600 for absolutely nothing but a prescription and exam and to be told that my glasses won't be done or in into two weeks so but she was more than sure to sell me another pair even though I told her all I wanted was a single pair with a just an exam and if I needed a pair cool and if I didn't eat the pair amazing for the price that I was paying you would think I saw an ophthalmologist and I had eye surgery at this facility but since it was just literally an exam and a pair of glasses mind you I told the woman I just needed a prescription I did not need lenses or glasses but she said they were free I didn't see anything free I still end up paying for them so definitely some false advertisement or she definitely didn't clear that up for me All I heard was she was trying to make that sale I would never waste my time I would definitely never tell anybody to go there I would definitely tell people to not waste their time or their money and I paid out a pocket didn't use any insurance so to think that I thought I was so do you say going to leave out a happy camper definitely disappointed Debbie here.
