Most places require an eye exam within a year to get new glasses. On a whim I went to For Your Eyes Only as they said they repair. Went in - they said they will do the best they can but the lenses can't be moved or copied without an exam within a year. I knew that but was truly hoping to get help fixing them. Well after fussing with them for 10-15 min, the tech handed me the repaired glasses. Made my day. Better yet made my wife's week! Service was Fantastic.

Eyes are sensitive organs and I was not told anything about the machines or tests that were done during my exam unless I asked about them, but I was also not given time to ask about anything before it happened. I felt like I was being experimented on because no one would tell me what the hell was going on. Keep in mind this was my first eye exam in years, and my second ever, so I had no idea what was supposed to happen during this appointment. I told them this, and they still treated me this way. Horrible overall experience, and I would not recommend for anyone who likes explanations, has sensory issues, or has not been to an eye doctor before. I will never be coming back.

I was very satisfied (nay happy!) with the service I received. I appreciated the effortless onboarding experience that could be done by filling out forms online. Arrived at my appointment slightly early and was attended to right away. The staff here are absolutely delightful, from reception, to the doctors, to the eye bar specialist. My interactions were bubbly and pleasant. Dr. Reynon carefully listened to my concerns during the exam and addressed all my questions expertly. I especially appreciated a concern he raised during my exam, and the team worked to get some of his findings to my oncologist for review. Baby's first glasses! As this was my first time getting glasses, I want to give a special shout-out to the kind woman who shepherded me through the whole process. I was told they would be ready in ten days, but they were ready after two! I can't recommend this place enough due to them getting me exactly what I needed. I cannot comment on pricing. I imagine I could have taken my prescription to Walmart for something less expensive, but why would I do that when this office is equipped with the right people delivering the right services and treating them right?

I went and needed to make an appointment- a week later 4/21/27 i was examined and I was impressed with all the updated machines. I had to wait a few weeks for glasses to be made, which is not unusual. I then went in and tried them on, these were $900 bifocals with all the bells and whistles, but the long-distance view was blurry. I immediately told this to the woman helping me, but she said take them home and get used to them and if they don't get better, bring them back. After a week, I went back and they gave me another exam, and the results were different from the first. After waiting another week or so, I went back again. the new glasses were fine. However, upon leaving, they handed me the old prescription and did not give me the accurate prescription. All was fine until I wanted to get a pair of prescription sunglasses from Costco. I gave them the script from Carolina Vision and waited a week. These sunglasses were for a vacation planned for the beginning of September to see Ireland. Well, when I tried the new sunglasses on , they were blurry. The optometrist at Costco tested my regular glasses and discovered the the script the I was given was the wrong script. so now i have to go on my vacation without the benefit of great sunglasses . Bottom line - Carilina Family vision looks pretty on the outside, the salespeople are professional, but behind the scenes it is a clown show .

I simply needed new lenses bc I took mine with me to the gym and they got messed up. It's literally been 12 1/2 months since my last visit but I was going to make an appointment anyway to see if my eyes had changed any: After I had made the appointment the lady or gentleman said "oh I just want to let you know you have to get an additional test the provider wants you to have and that's $50 on top of your deductible " uhm listen to what you just said. You want me to pay for something THE PROVIDER wants to do. I Bet they do want to charge everyone $50 extra but it should be a choice not a you have to do this bc the provider wants extra money. I just requested my prescription and will order it online. So much for being able to build local relationships bc everyone is so money hungry it's not enough to see someone for what their insurance will cover. You now have to try to squeeze more out for a test that is NOT necessary for a routine eye exam.
