I am very happy with my glasses
Michael G.

They actually came to my church and did a pre exam there. I was impressed from there.

Hmmmm
Michelle T.

Came here on a recommendation from a networking group that I am a part of. Happy that I decided to give them a try. Dr. Herring and his staff are awesome. He is very knoweldgeable about his craft and takes the time to educate his client on what he is doing and why. The staff ensures that all areas are properly sanitized. Everyone wore masks. Victoria, even took a step away to allow me to remove my mask to fully view my face in the frames. I also appreciate the time they took to support me during the frame search process. While I did not choose to purchase frames that day, I plan to return to purchase them in the spring.

The winning black designer glasses
Francine M.

Great selections and experience with the staff. I was looking for a black owned optometrist and came across this one locally. Process was smooth and fun! Who knew shopping for glasses could be so fun. I also purchased a black designer frame.

Dr. Herring is the best!⁩ I recommend seeing him immediately for your optometry needs! I had an eye infection and he got me in right away and diagnosed it. His office is beautiful and staff is friendly & professional. Very quick and easy process. I am a highly satisfied patient! As a bonus you get to support a small local business and minority business owner!

My new eyewear!
Ladie J. R.

This establishment is great. The staff and their customer service are amazing. Dr. Herring is professional yet very personable. He assist with picking out my glasses. They came back with in a week of my initial visit. Overall, I had a great experience. I love my new glasses and I plan to return. I highly recommend Nostalgic Eye Care.

Herring, the owner, has curated such a fantastic collection and he did a thorough, professional exam right then.

An Experience That Redefines Optical Service ​I recently had…read morethe pleasure of visiting the Warby Parker on Walnut Street, and the experience was truly phenomenal--it was genuinely inspiring and sets a new benchmark for customer service. ​From the moment I walked in, the entire team demonstrated an intentional commitment to excellence. They were attentive, incredibly knowledgeable, and made the selection process effortless and enjoyable. They didn't just sell me glasses; they provided an experience where I felt completely cared for and valued. ​The value here is astounding. I received beautifully crafted glasses at a truly wonderful price, but what made the experience transformative was the speed. I was amazed at how quickly my glasses were ready, far exceeding any expectation I had based on previous optical experiences. ​The seamless combination of expert care, incredible affordability, and swift turnaround time is a testament to the fact that top-tier service doesn't have to break the bank or take weeks. This team is executing their mission flawlessly. ​If you are looking for new eyewear and desire a positive, efficient, and genuinely exceptional experience, look no further than the Warby Parker on Walnut Street. They are setting the standard for how this business should be run.

I've been going to their different locations for years including this one. This visit had poor customer service however and I will not be going to this spot again. No one greeted me and I was in the store for about 30 minutes and it was not crowded. I purchased 2 pairs of glasses and had to approach the worker myself as well as ask her about their current promotion. The other two staffers on the floor joked and laughed at something they were viewing on a tablet almost the whole time. Not the customer service this place used to be. Try the Cherry Hill or Ardmore location. Much better service. Hoping this was an off day for them. 3 stars is mostly for product and store layout.

Please know that this office cares and wants to be sure the patients have a positive experience. I appreciated hearing from Kim and her proposed solutions (of which she offered many). ORIGINAL: I had been going here for several years. My first year I got Dr Ward and he was great. Unfortunately, in the subsequent years I was passed off to other newer doctors so I missed the continuity in care. On my last visit, a new doctor recommended I try a "mono vision" approach for my multi focal contacts. I was open to it as she said I could "try it out" since it will take a while to get used to. I was told that if I don't like it to "just call" for an updated prescription. It didn't work for me. When I tried to get an updated prescription (around 119 days later) I was told that I was "outside of my 90 days" and would need to come back in for another eye exam. Of course, I would have to pay out-of-pocket for the exam (my insurance only covers 1 exam per calendar year). I was never told of this 90 day window at any point in conversation with the physician or staff nor is it listed anywhere in the paperwork I was given. I feel this is disingenuous and will therefore be looking for a new eye doctor.

All of the docs are top-notch: incredibly knowledgeable & helpful. Second: their frame selection is fantastic. I get compliments almost *every day*, no matter which of my many pairs of glasses I happen to be wearing. I've lost track of how many friends & colleagues I've referred to ME over the years, and they've all been delighted too. Modern Eye are also great people. They've contributed to fundraising events and community organizations. I've seen staff help a crying student who needed a temple piece fixed, and a visiting faculty member right off a plane whose frames needed an adjustment, and someone who had lost a contact lens & couldn't see out of one eye. It's apparent how much Modern Eye truly **cares** about our community, and that keeps me coming back as much as all the cool frames and adaptive lenses they've helped me with over the years.

I broke my glasses and needed it fixed asap for class, and they went through all my options for lenses and helped me find the most economical option that suited my needs. They helped me with such sincerity and even expedited my order and I received it after just 4 days, when they originally said it usually takes 10 days. I would highly recommend Modern Eye for their kind and warm service and helpfulness, and efficiency in helping me with my glasses!
