They use off site phone helpers who ask questions they already have in their files, they overprice…read moretheir frames by a good bit (as evidenced by how quickly they offered to come down on the posted price when I commented on it) and, the straw that broke the camel's back is they charge mandatory $55 for machine optic tests -and won't dilate instead. You are not allowed to refuse. Most places charge $30 for the same tests and offer dilation for free as an option. The staff seemed nice but forced to robotically say the same line to customers all day about the doctor insistence on these mandatory additional charges. I looked up the charges on my phone as soon as they told me about it and found out that dilation was usually an option and that the charge was on the highest end of typical, so walked out and found somewhere else nearby later that same day and am so glad I did. I'll review them separately. Again the place is fine the employees are nice and the eyeglass sales woman was very committed and dedicated and interested but whoever makes their policies is out to make the most money possible with the least work possible.

This is one of those times I review a business as I sit in their parking lot because I simply don't…read morewant to forget. I called ahead to ask if they do eyeglass frame repair on frames I purchased from them in 2013. They said yes and gave me the address of their location (here) that is open Mondays. (Their East Cobb location is not open Mondays.) I showed up very soon after they opened. I recognized Dr. Patel even though it had been over ten years. I explained the two things wrong with my glasses. A member of her team at the front desk examined them and agreed they could be repaired easily. In fewer than 15 minutes, someone walked to the lobby with the repaired glasses. Amazing! In this day and age when so much comes extra, when businesses are squeezed to nickel and dime their customers to make ends meet, I genuinely expected to be charged for this repair. Blazingly fast service and no pressure to buy anything even though it had been over ten years since they made a penny off me? I'm going to make a point to come back when I get my vision prescription renewed in a week. I hope that if you're reading this review it means you're checking them out. Have confidence in visiting them and trusting them to do right by you. I'm no one special. Not a VIP. But even after so long, they happily repaired my eyeglasses restoring my ability to get work done with my vision "restored" so to speak. If you do visit them, mention this review to help reinforce positive rewards for friendly service. :-)

I went here earlier this year for some new specs. I had gotten my eye exam completed at Target…read moreoptical which I love but was not impressed with their current selection. We went around to a couple different stores (in and outside of the mall) before landing at Pearle Vision. Although pricier, you were instinctively aware that the glasses were of better quality and the customer service was great. I didn't feel hounded or hassled at all as I freely took FOREVER to try on multiple frames. Keisha was great, being both very knowledgeable about the products and options, and assisting me in finding a frame(s) that complimented my face. She was also very patient. So, when it took me about 3 weeks to select 2 frames, she still worked with me as if I were a new customer or better yet, a loyal regular. I chose 2 frames and a pair of sunglasses all of which I love. I even returned to get the anti glare added on (which Keisha had recommended but I declined) after realizing it affected my driving at night and how I looked in pictures. Love the staff here! Check it out if you're in the market!

Nice people here. Not as "slick" and "polished" as Lens Crafters, but I left believing they were…read moreequally as competent. Well. As competent as mall eye shops go. People were in and out in a progressive manner for appointments. They even managed to work a few walk-ins in. The doctor, Dr. Amit, was very friendly, and really knew his eye stuff. I was impressed. Courtney, the office manager, got me in the door, with excellent customer service skills. How often do you hear that anymore? I think these folks try a little harder to BE good, and to give you GOOD, QUALITY service, because they know they're competing with the guys you see on tv all the time. I had a good experience, recommend these folks, and will be returning.

I was standing in my driveway this morning and a gnat flew directly into my eye. I was not able to…read moreget it out and it lodged itself underneath my eye. My eye started to turn red, and my cornea began to swell. I eventually was able to flush the gnat out with saline solution however my cornea continued to swell. I reached out to my colleague Dave Nichols and asked if he could arrange for me see one of his locations in the area. He called me back with an appointment at the Acworth location for 20 minutes later. I scooted over to the Acworth Store #5237 and was greeted by David who promptly queued me up to be seen. A few minutes later I was being examined by Dr. Paige who wrote me prescription. Susan checked me out. The entire process took 27 minutes! I want to thank Dave Nichols for making the arrangements for me to be seen on short notice. Huge thanks to Dr. Paige and his wonderful team who are both friendly and professional. I had several important meetings with clients today and was able to keep all of them due to the efficiency of this office. Thank you!!!

Every visit I've had with this location has been pleasant. Myself and my two daughters all have…read morereceived exams and glasses from them. The staff is always welcoming and kind. Imani has such a gentle and calm demeanor and she's so knowledgeable about the products and processes she always helps smooth out any hiccups in the process especially helping me understand insurance coverage. Cody has came to the rescue a bunch of times when I need customizations on my meta glasses or a simple tightening and adjusting of our frames.

I have been buying here for the past 4 years. Never had a problem like the bad reviews others are…read moreputting out. On the contrary, service has been 5 stars. And be clear y'all, this review is for LensCrafters not for the eye exam people, Atlanta Eye Group, which I get wonderful service as well. I'd like to commend Kim for her excellent customer service and patience. Did not rush me into making a decision on glasses, answered all my questions and because she wears glasses herself, she related her own helpful experience. Thank you Kim! You're an asset to LensCrafters. I hope they value you as I did. I think more satisfied customers should take 5 minutes to relate their positive experience. Instead what's happening is some cranky, snobby customers are the only ones yapping away. Besides, every business has their bad days just like any other.

I bypassed all the negative reviews about this LensCrafters location. In the past couple of years I…read morewent to another location which I heard all are independently owned, I was not pleased with the doctors. My recent experience at this LensCrafters has restored my confidence in the brand as far as my eye exam went. The store is located In town center mall between JC Penney and the now closed Sears. There is an entrance both inside and outside the mall. When I walked in for my 5 30 PM appt on a Wednesday, a young lady kindly escorted me to the Doctor's office. Everyone including the Doctor was Amicable. I was happy to hear they have a policy that you can come back within 30 days if your glasses are too strong to have the prescription adjusted. My experience with my eye exam was very pleasant from beginning to end, they answered all of my questions and I felt confident about the health of my eyes when I left. After receiving my prescription I went to pick out my new glasses. I prefer LensCrafters over other places due to the high end brands they carry. A young lady gave me a tray, told me to fill it up with all the glasses I was interested in and she would be back once I was done. They had a nice selection of women's glasses from brands like Prada, Coach, Burberry, Ralph Lauren and a many more. I sat down at a desk to try on the glasses I chose. I was able to pick out 1 pair of glasses and they had a 50% sale on select sunglasses so I chose 1 pair of those as well as my second pair. Two associates helped me with the fitting, both were jovial. I was happy that I wasn't pressured into getting anything I didn't want, they offered and moved on when i said no. Before finishing up the transaction they tripled checked to make sure the order was right. I had a great experience inside this location, the staff was friendly and knowledgeable. The store was clean and organized. The selection was current and the frames were all very tasteful. Now what did not go well was after my visit. My two pairs of glasses arrive on Saturday, only 3 days after my appt. I was called to come in and pick them both up. Then I received another call asking if what were clearly supposed to be sunglasses were just that. They were sent in with a clear lens, so I was only able to pick up my primary glasses. I was very understanding, I was told they reordered them on that day and they would be in 7 to 10 business days. Welp it's been well over that time and everytime I call about my sunglasses I get the run around and then I'm told someone will call me back and never do. If I am able to track any other order I make from any other store there is no reason why they should not be able to tell me the status of my glasses. I spent a lot of money on my glasses and at this point very disappointed in this location, I had so much hope things would go well. At this point I doubt I will get glasses from here again, but I will definitely be back for my eye exam.
