STAY AWAY! READ REVIEWS BELOW "RUDE AND DISRESPECTFUL STAFF"…read moreI am now going to go into detail about the dispute that occurred today at the Eye Appeal Office. There was no space for it on the online form: 1) I left a message over the phone for the Eye Appeal office that I would prefer different nose pads on my glasses so that they would be prepared when I came to see Dr. Chung about my contact lenses. My complaint is not against the doctor; it is against David Thompson, the optician. 2) I was waiting for the doctor, and David Thompson asked for my glasses to change the nose pads. When he had my glasses in his hands he said loudly, "No one has ever asked to have these nose pads changed." I said simply, "Well, that's what I want." I did not yell, swear, or say anything more. 3) David Thompson then raised his voice again and told me not to speak rudely to him. Then, the whole office staff ( which is comprised of his daughter and girlfriend) started yelling at me! I was actually afraid. His girlfriend then chimed in that I had been rude to her also. See whether the reader thinks this is rude: My communication with her involved my being fitted with contact lenses. After Dr. Chung told me to put my contact lenses in, Thompson's girlfriend had me come to her station and told me to look in the mirror with my new glasses on to "see" if they looked okay. With both the contact lenses and glasses in, I couldn't see anything properly! I simply told her that I could not see, but she just wanted to continue, not answering me. I then simply said, "You don't understand what I mean." Again, I did not yell or swear. Apparently, she thought it was rude of me to express my frustration at not being able to see my new glasses with my contact lenses on. Apparently, she, like her boyfriend, David Thompson, has a very low threshold for anyone's opinion or slight criticism. I must add here that the three of them would have continued to be hostile and yell at me if I hadn't diffused the situation. I simply said, "You've made up your mind" and then started to chuckle. They were fortunately totally thrown off by this because, as I've said, they love to fight. I was grateful that my tactic worked. 4) Even before the whole staff starting yelling at me, David Thompson said to me, "I don't want to ever speak to you again." So, what recourse do I have but to file this complaint for my warranty services? If he won't speak to me, how can I receive services? Furthermore, with the temper he (and his girlfriend and daughter) exhibited, I am actually afraid of him and do not want any more dealings with him. Even if he consented to talk with me and supply the warranty promised, if need be, it would be a very uncomfortable and fear-inducing interaction. 5) Furthermore, it must be noted that his whole staff (again, his staff being his girlfriend and daughter) will obviously DENY what I am saying. It is them against me. These people are chomping at the bit to have a fight. 6) I have worn glasses since age 16 and had to visit doctors of optometry, optometrists, and opticians' offices on numerous occasions and never had any experience like this. Their behavior is totally unprofessional and defensive. 7) I have documented the receipt, which includes the $40 warranty on two pairs of glasses (total $80) and also included reviews on Healthgrades that include descriptions by other customers who describe David Thompson's angry and unprofessional behavior: He is "an atrocity and a hot headed loose canon." On more than one occasion, he swore at the customers and called them liars and was "very aggressive and unreasonable." 8) In addition to all this, either his daughter or girlfriend marked the place I look through in my glasses (I wear progressives for near and far vision) so that my ability to see properly is off, and I am looking through the wrong part of the lenses to see. Response to my original review (above) David Thompson responded to my extremely accurate review written in July of 2021. He is trying to make himself look good and reasonable. I have never had such a scary experience in my life. I should have called the police, but if I did, they would deny that they were yelling at me because they are all in cahoots because they are personally related to one another ( David T.; his girlfriend; and his daughter). David T. says he would honor my warranty, but he intimidates and yells at people so that the people he has treated this way would never dare to even enter his workplace. The opthalmologist was very good. If the optical shop was ever affiliated with Davis Vision, they no longer are. The person who wrote that David T. is a "loose canon" is absolutely correct.

I am one of the people who had a "less than favorable experience," and that's a supreme understatement in my case.

I have used MyEyeDr in Portsmouth for exams and glasses for the last ten years. During my most…read morerecent exam I had the exam, purchased glasses and was charged 660 dollars with credits from my insurance. Approximately three months later I was charged another 142 dollars but not told why. I drove to the store to ask for some justification of the additional charges and was told the manager would review it the following week and be in touch. I reached out again and was finally provided a receipt via email showing the 660 around due but again no justification for the additional charge. I responded to the email asking again and they said the manager would get back to me. Needless to say they never contacted me again and it's just not worth my time pursuing it further. I will not return and will find a practice that is transparent in their pricing.
