I was an early morning walk in - wait time was just long enough for me to fill out my paperwork. Everyone was extremely friendly and it was so smooth. If you're older: the machine that helps determine your prescription is waaaay easier than it used to be - I felt like I went to a wizard! And when it came time to select some glasses (frames and options) the young woman working the counter asked a few questions and literally walked me to the pair I ended up getting - first try, I don't even need to see any others. These guys are legit. For as long as I live in Pensacola I will be exclusively using them.

These frames are not cheap and the lenses are even more expensive so to say that I was disappointed when I picked up my glasses and the Tiffany pair broke as soon as I put them on, I was heartbroken. My daughter's wedding was in a few days in England and opti club actually offered to overnight the glasses to England for me. I declined the offer because I know how mail can get lost especially going overseas. When I came back a week later, my glasses were ready and I again drove to Pensacola to pick up my Tiffany glasses. I wore them two days, and they broke again in the same spot that they broke originally at opti club! I was devastated! Opti club ordered new Tiffany frames and the glasses are great. I didn't like the fact that I had to make 3 round trip visits to Pensacola (I live an hour away) but the ladies were so nice and the fact they offered to overnight them to England speaks volumes. Also, opti club gives a full year warranty on their glasses not 30 days like everyone else!

Disappointed and Misled -- Never Again…read more I recently visited Eye and Coffee Guy (formerly "$50 Eye Guy") for an eye exam because my insurance covers the exam with just a $10 copay. To my surprise, I was charged an outrageous $143 for the exam, with insurance. My insurance also includes a $250 allowance toward any frames, but I was told by the sales associate that this didn't apply to frames in the glass case (such as Oakley, Tom Ford, Coach, etc.). That is completely false. I ended up using my own frames and was charged $568 for just the lenses. After insurance, I still had to pay $170 out of pocket -- just for lenses with anti-glare. I needed the glasses urgently, so I paid it, but I absolutely regret it. On August 1st, I placed my order and gave them my $500 Tom Ford frames to have the lenses fitted. Instead of handling them carefully, they broke my frames during the process. Not only did they fail to apologize, but I was told over the phone that I would need to purchase another set of frames because they were not liable for frame damage per the paperwork I signed. When I asked about a credit or refund since they broke my frames, they refused. I then asked for a refund on the lenses so I could take my business elsewhere, but they told me the lenses were already cut and nonrefundable. To make matters worse, if I bought new frames, the lenses would need to be remade anyway. At that point, I ordered new frames from another store, choosing not to give Eye and Coffee Guy another dime. Twenty-five days later, my glasses finally arrived -- far too long for something so basic. Horrible and slow service from start to finish. For comparison, I later went to another local optometrist who immediately told me that my $250 insurance frame allowance was still valid since I hadn't used it. I was able to use it toward a pair of Dolce & Gabbana frames with no problem. The competitor quoted me $125 out of pocket for lenses with anti-glare, anti-scratch, and UV protection -- all made in-house and ready the same day. Meanwhile, Eye and Coffee Guy quoted $399 for the same lens features and still had to send them off. Even with insurance, I paid more here than I would have paid in full elsewhere without insurance. I feel completely misled, taken advantage of, and frankly, ripped off. The lack of transparency, the misinformation, the refusal to take accountability, and the careless handling of my expensive frames is unacceptable. I will never return for optical services again. To top it off, I've been a loyal coffee customer here 4 times a week. But after this experience, I will no longer be giving this business a single dollar for coffee or anything else. The only thing close to $50 here is the coffee and muffins. Do better.

WORST SERVICE EVER. Brought my husband in for an annual eye exam. He's an active duty family…read moremember, one eye exam annually is covered by Tricare. He hasn't had one since 2020. The lady who brought him back to the exam room apparently does not understand how Tricare works and wanted to argue with me and say my husband is not covered. That I needed to "enroll him", which is not required. So I have to research the information for her, show her screenshots just to get my husband seen. And while I was trying to do that, they took other patients in his place. We had to wait over an hour past his original appointment time. Then the same lady had the receptionist CALL TRICARE to confirm what I had already told them. He had to take time off work for this exam, we had both our kids with us, it was a hot mess. His original exam time was 4 pm, then they were unable to get through to Tricare because *hello* it's now 5:30 pm. Needless to say, we did not get seen. I DO NOT recommend this place. Not military friendly whatsoever, which is sad considering this city has a huge military presence.
