I've been wearing glasses for 50 year and never had a frame completely crack in this location. I guess this is the reason they are so inexpensive. Very unfortunate, as they were a very nice design and I was going back to get a matching frame for prescription sunglasses.

Dr. Laura Scanlon is the BEST eye doctor I've ever been to. In fact, she is the best doctor I see…read more She is such a considerate, patient, and knowledgeable doctor that my family and I have followed her when she transferred offices. Dr. Scanlon's exams are thorough and her "bedside manner" is affable. She was able to quickly diagnose my father's condition after he had already been to three other doctors who had overlooked it. She arguably saved his vision. I highly recommend making the trip through New Haven for her!

That is why i have been seeing her for about 9-10 years, maybe more... BUT to get to Dr Scanlon you have to get passed the trolls. The customer service in the front of the vision center is some of the worst I've ever experienced. I'm surprised these women still have jobs here with the way they treat and talk to people. Rude, short, snippy. They act as if you are bothering them. Whenever you walk in, most times you are made to wait a minute or so before you are acknowledged or helped, even when there is no one else there. Standing there is awkward. One of the trolls is worse then the others, but the others seem to follow suit when she is there. And on this last visit I noticed cleaning practices slacking. I watched the main troll put dirty glasses that people tried on right back on the display without cleaning them. How unsanitary... I decided to get glasses elsewhere. I'll be back in a year or two for Dr Scanlon, but if she wasn't so amazing I would never recommend this place. My advice, Just get your exam and then run far away from this place...

Nice staff, but Don't be fooled by any Optometrist playing on your emotions via some feel-good…read moretactic. More importantly, focus to ensure that the end result of service rendered equates to quality of lenses in frames received in exchange for your money. Don't be fooled by the old illusion of the 3-D bird trick that's been around at least since the early 1990s, but haven't seen it in a while until recently. I recall this being revealed as a gimmick many years ago. Interesting to see it resurface again. What clients get as the end product should match that experience. As customers/clients, we know when we've ever had a pair of good quality lenses and feel that the Optometrist got it right. By the same token, we know upon trying on new glasses whether or not it is either too strong or just a weak, problematic pair of glasses akin to looking out of a window pane leaving the client better off wearing their older pair of better quality for vision care. Now I know times are hard in the world of Optometry business, but this is messed up. I was so happy to stop by & pick up my glasses, but was disappointed upon realizing that they were weak and unhelpful. The Optical Assistant growing a bit frustrated insisted on telling me to just keep the new glasses and wear them for more than a week in order "to get use to them" with her ongoing reasoning to my responses. For the sake of moving on with the time being, I rode out the time and tried wearing them only to find myself struggling & squinting to read the Road Signs from a reasonable distance until too late in approaching to make a turn or lane decision. To be safe, I have had to wear a much older pair of glasses. They are hard & painful on my nose bridge & ears, but at least they are much better on the vision. With the exception of the reading glasses (bifocal area), the new ones are akin to looking through a window pane wasting my time and insurance money. There was no getting used to a new pair of glasses after the first day. Either they work or they do not! Don't make the mistake of given into that which is designed to send your right on out the door with them. Unfortunately, the office remain closed due to the Coronavirus crisis leaving my son and I hanging. Unfortunately, he trusted them and purchased three pairs with two of them being quite expensive or going into the Hundreds of Dollars in total. We were told that the Obamacare insurance used a different lab to cut cost. He was assured that the pay-out-pocket would result in a different lab with better results. What's the point of buying COSTLY frames with lenses that are not a good fit for better vision? Since we were told that our vision hasn't changed much, we could have simply taken our previous prescription to a direct online frame & lense company with high reviews & reputable or to a Costco, BJs, JCPenny, etc. Shouldn't the goal of private offices be to differentiate oneself to stand ahead of the competition? IMO It is one thing to practice good customer service, it is another skill to deliver quality of care with satisfaction for clients/customers for equal exchange of goods and services in terms of money/insurance rendered for payment for prescription glasses.
