    After 3 months of headaches - not even an apology.

    I was waiting to see how they would respond before writing a review, and I just got the reply that I am posting here. Here's what they did: 1. Got my prescription wrong. 2. Got my prescription wrong again. 3. Recommended & made frames that slid off my face constantly. 4. Adjusted the frames twice to no avail. 5. Remade one of the lenses due to the wrong rx. 6. Still was blurry and sliding off my face so I just gave up and returned it. I requested a refund of my (twice) incorrect prescription via my credit card company because I was just tired of dealing with this place (as you might understand from the above - which is just a partial list of all the times I had to go there or talk to them). I just got a message that "this customer paid for an exam which he received. Please review attached receipt. The customer is not owed any refund. Thanks - Jordan S." Then they enclosed the STORE copy, meaning the STORE management refused to refund the fee for the exam as well as the corporate office. Wow. Well, that's it then. This level of a headache to get glasses (that I had to pay for) is a 1 star experience, to put it mildly. There are a few nice people here, but the rest of my experience with this lens crafters & another one in the city cemented my opinion that I am never setting foot in this chain again. I will have zero guilt about going in here to try on frames and ordering them from internet retailers who are a lot cheaper & have crizal frames with essilor coatings (that lens crafters doesn't offer even though the same company owns those lenses and this store chain). Luxottica also owns all the frames, yet they force lens crafters to mark the price up obscenely compared to online stores. It seems like all of the machines that Lens Crafters uses to speed up the process just make more errors. Five years ago (and beyond) I never had an issue with this chain in any location...and now two stores have proven to be impossible to deal with.

    SCAM!!!!!!!! Please…read morebeware of visiting this facility! They intentionally don't give you a copy of your contact prescription by saying you can grab it after you pick up your "free contact sample". I couldn't make it back to pick up my sample and when I called today they pretend like someone was supposed to give it to me. Too bad this exact same thing happened last year so I know they don't give it to you! To make matters worse if you call to get your prescription they claim they don't have access to email but can fax it! Not sure who has a fax machine sitting at home in 2024. Obviously their intention is to have you come back to pick up this free contact sample two weeks later so they can sell you contacts. AND if you call their office you're greeted by Jasmine who obviously isn't experienced with helping customers, talks over you and is outright rude! And she's apparently their office manager. I've NEVER been to an eye Dr in which they hold your prescription hostage! Don't trust this place and go somewhere else around the area. My radar should have gone off when I was in the office for my check up and Jasmine was bullying this older woman. Making it seem like any question she had was an inconvenience and treating her like a criminal. The older woman was just asking why the glasses were so expensive and what she could do to get the price down. I wanted to earn everyone that this is not your place. I've lived here for 20+ years and never had this experience with any other eye dr. I will be taking my business elsewhere.

    If they say they are in-network & take your eye insurance-they should cover exam & part of contacts!read more

There is plenty of parking since it is located in the Woodland Commons Shopping Mall. Her staff greeted me as soon as I walked in. The check-in process was swift and simple. She was thorough with my eye exam and took the time to answer my questions. They carry a variety of brands of frames and the staff was helpful in assisting me in finding the exact frame I want. I was very happy with the service and experience. I am truly appalled by some of the low rating reviews. Eye exams and eyewear can be costly especially with add-ons and features. I don't think it's fair to give a one-star review or complain about the experience because of the cost.
