Updating this review from a year ago. Fell and severely bent the frames and one lens popped out of…read moremy main eyeglasses over the weekend. Drove to Jody's to see if they could be fixed and also purchase new ones in my existing frames. The optician fixed my damaged glasses at no charge within 5 minutes. I got new sets of glasses from a new prescription in my own frames. Returned in 2 1/2 hours to pick them up and have them fitted perfectly. Outstanding service, quality and reasonable prices! Jody's Optical is an optician shop which makes custom eyeglasses from your Doctor's prescription. Usually eyeglasses are made onsite within a matter of a couple of hours. I love this business for two primary reasons. They will fit new lenses to your old frames or your own frames which you have purchased elsewhere. They have a large selection of frames if you wish to purchase frames there, however. Second, they always do an outstanding job of fitting your glasses to your head which is a skill missing in most big box retailers of eyeglasses. Have been buying eyeglasses here for years and recommend them highly.

While visiting in Florence, I lost my sun glasses. I was referred to Dr. Greenberg's office. I…read more have been to many other optometrists in the past (including an ex brother-in-law).

No othyer type of eye doctor has ever given me such care and taken the time to make sure that I had a proper and comfortable fit. Thank you Dr. Greenberg. Sherry Kay

The doc I saw here was recommended by my lifelong ophthalmologist in B'ham…read more I have been seeing my ophthalmologist for about 50 years with many eye evals over that time span. Having my eyes dilated has never been a problem until my visit here. First thing I noticed was my eyes dilated faster than ever before. After exam when I got to my car to return home my vision was SO blurry I was anxious about driving the short distance home! My vision stayed blurry for about 3 hours!!! Not a good experience.

So I had to wait 3 weeks, granted 2 of those were mine (couldn't pay for them the Thursday so I had…read moreto wait till Tuesday to order them which sucked) but my biggest complaint is the optometrist went on vacation the same day I was supposed to get my glasses, and she was gone for a week I called and asked if I could get them anyway and they said I couldn't without the optometrist who woudlnt be back to the next Thursday, first off why didn't they have a backup optometrist? So she decides to go on vacation (which is fine obviously) and what everyone who needs glasses or contacts now has to wait a whole nother week? Why would they not have a back up optometrist? I wasn't able to go shopping or drive or even work because of it (my old pair broke hence why I ordered new ones) and why is only the optometrist allowed to give them to me, she asked my name asked if they fit and sent me on my way are you telling me no one else could have done the same thing took 30 seconds. Ended up developing anxiety and now if I dont wear my glasses for an hour I start to get stressed and anxious. Honestly

For your eye health, choose another doctor. I trusted Dr. Kassels for two years until I realized he…read moreassumed I had a punctal plug which is something he could have seen if he took time to do a thorough exam. During every appointment, Dr. Kassels attitude and bedside manner was such that it made me feel I was wasting his time. Additionally, either the prescription was wrong for my glasses or his optician did not submit the order correctly. The progressive lens is not aligned correctly. To be able to read with the glasses I have to push them up. Adjusting the frames does not help. No one at Dr. Kassels office has done anything to correct the problem. If I was the only person having experienced the same treatment, I wouldn't write a review; however, several people are having problems with their glasses prescriptions and are receiving poor service. If I could choose zero stars, I would.

They refuse to refund the previous payment because they say it was for doctors service rendered and isn't eligible for refund. DO NOT USE this company!
