    New daily wear!

    What an incredible place! The staff were so helpful and their expertise shined through our whole experience here. Allison welcomed us with great hospitality and immediately started setting us up as new clients in their system, sorting out our insurance and working with my partner's new prescription. (My partner hasn't had new lenses since 2018 and frames since 2013, and he just moved into the world of progressives -- oh, the joys for being over 40!) Aaron picked out great styles and colors for my partners face, including new and vintage frames for driving, reading/computer work, and sunglasses. Even though it's tough to find a good fit for my partner's head, Aaron came through and helped update his look. As my partner tried on each frame, Aaron even took pictures, so he could put his glasses back on to see what he actually looked like in them! So we updated my partners daily wear glasses- blue light protection, high index lenses. Got a new fun look of sunglasses that will go great with my partner's summer aloha shirts (and Miami Vice vibe). And then a pair of vintage silver frames (serial counted-who knew that was a thing?!) for driving with custom magnetic sun clips. (No progressives in those since he has an hour commute.) Aaron used a pupilometer to make sure the placement of the progressive areas of the lenses would be in just the right place. They also placed the frames and put dots so that they make sure to center his eyes in the lenses. Pandemic safety was in place. Everyone had mask on and hand sanitizer available. But Allison and Aaron were still friendly and provided great looks and conversation. We couldn't be happier with our experience and purchases here!

    Sorry to give this place a bad review but customer service sucks here. 1. Waited over two weeks for my Tom Ford prescription eye glass order. I'm -2.00, very basic Rx not sure why the extended wait. I called twice to check the status of my order after a week passed..Jared acted as if I was bothering him. 2. During the same visit asked one of the sales staff if they could buff the scratches out of my Tom Ford aviator sunglasses. I was told that's not possible but they could create new lenses instead. I agreed. Waited three weeks to receive my sunglasses back and the fools couldn't fit the new lenses in the sunglasses so some idiot glued the lenses on and if that's not bad enough glued them on unevenly. Jared suggested I select a new pair of sunglasses from their stock ..not Tom Ford so I declined. Finally Jared ordered a new pair from some vendor, not Neiman Marcus as I suggested. The new "Tom Ford" sunglasses have very dark brown lenses and not as transparent and ombré as the original. I wonder if they are fake?? See pic, bottom pair are originals with glued lenses..top pair are replacement sunglasses with darker lenses.

We had the pleasure of knowing Dr McReynolds for about 10 years. Then lost touch with her when she moved to another practice. Then when we lived in Kirkwood and found out she had opened up West County Vision we were happy to have her close by again. She took care of all our family optician needs during our stay in Kirkwood. She is friendly, thorough, knowledgeable and compassionate. The office staff and optician will make sure you find the right pair of glasses that best suits you. We have never felt rushed, they take the time to get to know you and your family. West County Vision reminds me of that small town practice that knows their patients. Check them out, you'll be glad you did. (Full disclosure, we no longer live in the area)

Everything about her office is spot-on: West County's staff is friendly & efficient, they have top-of-the-line diagnostic equipment, and Doc McReynolds is kind, perceptive, and professionally astute. She's also great with kids. The office has a selection of eye gear & frames in the lobby, and they will facilitate contact lens orders for you. It's definitely one of the most thoughtfully managed medical-related groups our family has used, and Dr. McReynolds stands above any optometrist we've met over the course of multiple-state relocations. The St. Louis/Kirkwood area is fortunate to have such a great resource.

Anyway, I came here...the crew here listened to my plight and was very supportive. I felt heard and just knew that I would walk away with glasses that helped me see. They have a great selection of glasses and will spend as much time as you like looking at them to find your perfect fit. Speaking of, when the glasses come in they will make sure that they fit you properly, give you some special eye glass cleaner that is really good and they tell you that you can come back any time to tighten the glasses. I would love to single out one person in this office but honestly everyone is sweet, caring and patient. I would never go anywhere else and I have sent many of my friends there for their eye glass needs.

The examination by Dr. Bernier was quick and he was a friendly guy. The only complaint I have is the high up front cost of the contacts I ordered. If it weren't for my paltry vision insurance and a rebate, they would have cost twice as much as the same contacts purchased online. After everything, the prices were comparable. I will most likely be going back in a year, but might try online ordering for the contacts next time to skip the fitting fee.
