My son Alex went there today for the second time and was told for the second time that they couldn't bill his insurance and that he had to pay that day. Alex being 19 just did what they said and left. I thought after a few days of back and forth with these people last time about the insurance that this was settled. They assured me that it was. Honestly, I should have known they didn't care and it wasn't over when they never provided an itemized bill, so we could submit a claim to the insurance. He had to ask for both itemized bills at today's appointment. They just want their money! Alex said he saw a different doctor today and he didn't even know why was there. This place isn't worth your time or your money!!!

They schedule another appointment but was a month out. Second time around the prescription was wrong again! He then asked for a refund. At which point the customer service turned from nice to downright mean and nasty. Additionally they only granted half of the cost as a refund. The reason for a half refund, some excuse of a restocking fee. Over $200 for a restocking fee for glasses that were made wrong twice and never worn. Would not recommend this place at all.

Misleading and Unethical Billing Practices - Avoid If You Have Insurance…read more I chose Cheat Lake Eye Care because they claimed to accept Davis Vision, but that turned out to be completely misleading. First, they told me that my contact lens fitting class wasn't covered--when I knew for a fact that Davis Vision covers it 100%. Then, when I pushed back, they told me I could pay out-of-pocket and get reimbursed by Davis Vision. That was also a lie. When I called Davis Vision directly, they confirmed that the class was covered and that Cheat Lake Eye Care was supposed to bill them directly--not me. Even after Davis Vision contacted the office to clarify this, they still refused to bill insurance. Instead, Dr. Portner left me a voicemail (while she was on vacation) explaining that she simply doesn't trust Davis Vision to reimburse her, so she forces patients to pay upfront. She even admitted she's considering dropping Davis Vision altogether--yet still advertises as accepting it. Here's part of what she said: "My office policy for the insertion and removal class is a mandatory paid-at-time-of-service. We've been burned one too many times... Davis is untrustworthy. I'm literally considering dropping them as a plan altogether. You are welcome to go anywhere else to fit for your contacts, but if you would like to be fit with us with Davis Vision, we will do a complimentary 10% discount." So not only did they falsely claim the service wasn't covered, but they also misled me into thinking I could get reimbursed--when in reality, they were supposed to handle the billing themselves. If an office claims to accept an insurance plan, they should honor the terms of that coverage--not force patients to pay out-of-pocket because they don't want to deal with insurance. This was a frustrating, unprofessional experience, and I won't be returning. If you have vision insurance, I strongly advise getting all costs confirmed in writing before booking an appointment here.

The woman who helped me said that she would also be the one to adjust the glasses to fit my face and make my lenses for me. They also do eye exams, though I went to a different optometrist for this. I looked at a few other places in town and the Looking Glass had the best selection of glasses by far. My wife, who also wears glasses was with me and we had to restrain her from buying glasses and sunglasses. A very cool thing that they do is after they sell you a pair of glasses, they will not restock the same style, they say they do this to keep current and out of respect for the customer's individuality.
