I purchased glasses from Veo Optics several years ago. In the past two months I went back to reset…read moremy glasses after years of bending and as reset when I dropped a backpack on them. I was nervous the first time because I had no back up glasses and going to a reunion. Ryan was great getting them back in shape, and I had no idea how much the eyeglass handles had moved. The glasses fit great. He was efficient, personable, and took time to educate me on my glasses The second time, Johan fixed my bent up glasses. I thought I had bent them so far out of shape that I would need replacements. But Johan took great care getting them fixed. And amazingly enough, they fit perfectly. I was really impressed with his attention to detail and empathy for my situation. So, thank you both1

I had just started wearing glasses within the last six months, so I honestly had no idea what I was…read moredoing when it came to getting lenses -- especially for a pair of smart-ish glasses that can play music and take calls. Luckily, I found Optical Underground, and they made the whole process easy. They knew right away that there is more than one kind of office progressive lens, and when the wrong lenses were sent, they didn't just hand them over and send me on my way. Instead, they told me immediately and ordered the correct replacements. The quality was clearly much better than the cheap online glasses I had started with, and once I realized the original lenses weren't right for me, I found another pair of the same frames and they swapped in the correct lenses without any hassle. The staff was knowledgeable, quick, friendly, professional, and open late, with great prices and high-quality lenses. If you have smart glasses and aren't sure how to get lenses for them, I'd definitely recommend checking them out.

You're welcomed on entering the shop and given plenty of room to browse. I did a once over, staff was helpful with questions, Their pricing for prescription lenses is pretty competitive. Apparently quite a few people have their optical eyeglass prescription loaded on their phone. Not so for me. Their frames are unique, fashionably pleasing but can be limited in quantity. So I bought an eyeglass frame that caught my attention and will plan to return to have it fitted with my prescription. Really happy to find a new source for fashion forward eyeglass frames!

I'm giving 1.5 stars instead of 1 solely because the in-store staff has always been friendly and helpful. However, Warby Parker's process and structure as well as their customer service have serious flaws that need addressing. I came in to finalize purchasing two pairs of glasses. After trying on a bunch more and completing the purchase then taking the bus home, I realized I hadn't received an order confirmation email. When I called customer service, they confirmed no order existed but somehow had no way to contact the store except by email. How is it possible customer service agents for a brick a primarily mortar store cannot contact those stores for a customer issue?!? Since I needed the glasses urgently for a trip, I paid for an Uber back to the store. The associate had failed to input my email correctly and never verified the order processed--critical errors despite her otherwise helpful service. The manager handled the situation professionally but refused (or claimed she couldn't) offer any discount to compensate for the $35 in Uber costs caused entirely by their mistake. Warby Parker needs to fix these systemic issues: stores should have authority to offer discretionary discounts when their errors cause customers financial harm, and customer service must be able to directly contact stores. I won't be returning.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Ended up at site for sore eyes 5 min walking from them and got both pair repaired/adjusted in less 1min, FOR FREE. friendly excellent customer service there.

As so many others have mentioned, the collections of Japanese vintage eyewear here are truly special, each carrying its own story and character. What left the deepest impression on me wasn't just the eyewear itself. It was the exceptional hospitality, craftsmanship, and customer care that came with it. Curtis, the owner, deserves special recognition. You can immediately tell the difference when someone genuinely cares about what they do. What could easily be a simple business transaction becomes something much more meaningful. His passion for curation is evident in every interaction, and it naturally extends to the people around him in sincerity. Despite my multiple troubling visits for adjustments, Curtis treated me every time with the same warmth and patience as the first - if not with even greater kindness. That level of care is something I genuinely appreciate and deeply respect. I'm already looking forward to my next visit in the fall. Whether you need a pair or a place for inspiration, I wholeheartedly recommend Time Frame in the Mission as your next stop!

I found a frame shape on Ahlem's site that was just so unique, I had to try it on. I had no idea that the appointment would be such a bespoke experience, and was not expecting it to be like it did. I was a bit nervous about it, tbh, but the sales associate was reassuring and helpful in finding other frames for me to try on that suited my face shape just so I can experiment with other styles. Luckily the frame that I had my eye on actually suited me in person! It took a couple of weeks, and since I actually live away from SF, I had opted to have them ship it to me instead. Today I received my frames, and could not be happier. It was packaged with care, and still fit exactly as it did when the glasses were molded to my face during my fitting. I'm truly so excited to finally have my "forever frames"! Thank you, Ahlem!
