They told me progressive lenses would be the perfect fit for me and that I would no longer need to take off my glasses to read. They also was tried to sell me computer glasses! I told them that I don't want scratch resistance; but after I got home I noticed that I got billed for that. I had to call the store and go back to get a refund. I was all excited when I picked up my new glasses. I was just handed the glasses and was not fitted; the tech had their dinner in front of them and seemed too busy to help. I tried it for about a week and hated my new glasses. The progressive part was useless and got me very dizzy. I went back and was told that they just need to be fitted. I tried it for about another week and with the same problems. They were useless to read with. I spent good $$$ for these progressive lenses. One problem I had was watching tv while reclining on the couch or laying in bed; everything was blurry and was getting a stiff neck to make it clear. So I go back to the store and told about my tv problem and the tech said "You can't wear your new glasses while watching tv reclining or in bed". I then asked how do I watch tv; she had no answer! I always needed glasses to watch TV. They ended up giving me a new basic lenses without the progressive; but was told there was no refund! The basic lenses would of been covered by my insurance. I never heard of progressive lenses before; wish I researched them before I went. I think I know more now then the techs at the store. I was never told about different types/sizes of progressive lenses. Wasted a ton of my time and I will never go back!!! UPDATE: The day after I did the customer review on their website; I get a call from them apologizing and they would refund me the $175 extra I paid for the progressive lenses. Why couldn't they just do this the first time?

I got 2 pair of really stylish glasses thanks to the great staff and their patients working withe the guy who can never make a quick decision. With a recent issue on some new frames the the manager agreed to allow me a complete swap since I wasn't convinced the repair would be satisfactory. This was above and beyond. I've been loyal to this shop for years and will now continue based on how the manager stepped up. One of the secret weapons is Diana. Super cool and a great eye for what style fits. She helped me pick out frames which look great and bring me compliments. I strongly suggest everyone who needs glasses or contacts visit Spare Pair Holmdel. You will be highly pleased.

I have been going to Opthalmic Physicians of Monmouth for a few years now, and have always been…read morepleased with the work of both Dr Steinfeld and Dr Mardones. I have nothing but praise for them. This past visit I was at the front desk to pay my copay, asked if they could use my card on file and they said they couldn't they needed the physical card. I off hand mentioned I don't have it, I left it in my room, and I should get it. I used a different card and then began leaving. My ride told me they were delayed as I opened the door so I opted to sit in the office to wait by the door. What happened next leads me to believe that they thought I left. After one of the front desk members received a phone call from a patient they hung up, and began speaking negatively about said patient, which I hate to say I have heard before from the front desk. Then they began on myself, saying "and this one saying how he can't find his card in his filthy room, you're a grown a$$ man with gray hair, why do I have to hear that." So at this point I sat up straighter and I believe one of them noticed me as the conversation shifted. When my ride arrived I simply went up to the front desk, told them I will not be returning, and that if they are going to talk about someone they should make sure they are not in the room first, and then left. So if you go to Opthalmic Physicians of Monmouth, just know that the front desk WILL be speaking negatively about you. I am disappointed in the lack of professionalism, I understand everyone can have a hard day and express frustration however this is a pattern I have noticed from the front desk.
