I have been a long time customer of visionworks on barracks and think they also have great customer service but my eye dr really went above and beyond and I think I'll be coming back for my glasses in the future.

Rosinsky and Franklin are good doctors…read more They know what they are doing, have friendly bed side manners, and diagnose accurately. The only con is I live in Charlottesville, and find getting out there for a contaxts lens exam (40 min roundtrip on just the driving) with a follow up to check the contacts (again, another 4p just on the drive) is too much for a busy mom and business owner. And, i got my eyes dilated, and after 2 years of being a patient they HAD to sign a new waiver that said exaxtly what the old thjng said - payment due, right to privacy - but with dilated eyes you couldnt read anything. After repeating this 3 times to the receptionist she read it it to me (which took 10 min). It could have waited. That was Michelle - she needs a course in the customer experience. The 5 star is for everyone else. I had to schedule up a 10 min follow up appointment for the contact lens check up, and its 2 weeks our or 3 weeks. Thats just frustrating. My eyes are healthy. Just give me my dang contacts. ****update****When i expressed my discontent with the wait time as a long time client, they squeezed me in before a plane trip, which is cool. I spoke with Kelly in the reception who helped make that happen - that woman is a good addition to the office.

I had my suglasses tuned up by one of the "associates" at the Barracks location, where the the lenses were broken within 5 minutes of handling. Since the frame was discontinued, I was offered very limited options as far as replacements. Long story short - my sunglasses were broken and was given an insulting 10% discount on my next purchase. I would consider playing "frogger" on I-495 before ever going into that shop again.

When I went in over lunch break I found a half a dozen frames that I liked and narrowed them down to 2 frames. Mr. Shifflet, the owner, gave me his opinion and asked his daughter to come look too.

Parking is plentiful, the store has a lot of frames and sunglasses to choose from and the service is outstanding. I will be a repeat customer.

Something I didn't notice most of the time but there were certain visual situations where I thought my eyes must be going really bad..... and when I came in they did recheck, confirmed the typo, and remade my glasses. But it was weird. And I felt like they regarded me with suspicion and side-eye the whole time and only begrudgingly admitted their mistake. And they talked down to me like it was my fault and told me it really would only make a minor difference, and my vision would get worse anyway!!! It still chaps my ass months later. I really wanted to love this practice. But I'm probably not going back.

At the 90th minute I found this office and made an appointment before I left Charlottesville for the summer. The office was super accommodating and helpful throughout my process. What really made this place deserve 5 stars is what happened almost a year after. I was in Mexico City for some time and realized I could take advantage of the cheap prescription sunglasses there. With only a few days left, I called the office back in the states to get my prescription. Eventually the phone was picked up and I was told that they are not in the location I had my exam at and asked if I can wait until the next day. Since I couldn't, they had someone stop by the office to take a picture of my prescription to send it to me. This isn't something every office would do for you and for that I am forever grateful. Highly recommended.
