I don't know if this is specific to this location, to the franchise, or to the eyewear industry…read moregenerally​, but the lenses I've gotten here the past several years--four at least--have lost the protective coating within a year or so. That shouldn't happen since I always get the extra protection, and I use a special lens cloth to clean them. Glasses are all but useless once that happens. I don't recall that ever happening before. The prescription sunglasses they made for me, at substantial expense, are an optical mess. Wavy lines, visible color prism, ill-fitting--unbearable. Gonna try another place this time now that I have a baseline.​

I have no issues with the quality of the examination or my in-person interactions with Dr. Glasser…read more(several appointments over many years). My issue is the way I was treated on my last visit by his assistant after it became apparent to her that I would not be buying frames or lenses from the practice. Her attitude immediately changed when I asked for a prescription. She stood up, went to ring up my copayment, and when she returned with the prescription she remained standing and was abrupt with me when I asked her to explain the change in my prescription, which was in a format I was not familiar with based on what I received in prior visits. I'm an educated person who wants to know how things work and what numbers actually mean, not merely to be told that "any qualified optician will understand" the prescription. I was made to feel stupid and like I was an imposition so I left and fed the prescription into ChatGPT which politely explained it to me, including how a progressive prescription can be translated into single vision distance and reading prescriptions, and what the numbers mean. AI was more polite and patient with me than the assistant. Despite having no issues with the doctor himself, I will not be returning to this practice in the future. The barriers between patients and medical information are evaporating due to AI. Doctors would be well advised to ensure that they and their staffs at least match the courtesy of ChatGPT. Update: In response to Dr. Glasser's comment, all I can say is that it would have taken his assistant less than a minute to sit down and politely explain to me the meaning of the numbers. Regardless of whether I'm dealing with an optometrist or a cardiologist, I take it upon myself to gain a thorough understanding of my heath, which is what ChatGPT provided and the assistant did not. If the doctor doesn't want to take constructive feedback on such a simple point, then I suppose that my decision to go elsewhere is the right one.

I was looking for somewhere else and came across Metropolitan Óptical on Zocdoc. The staff was incredibly friendly. I was greeted as soon as I arrived. I came pretty early, but they made sure that I got my tests out of the way early and then I saw the doctor. My appointment was quick and efficient, but I also learned things about my eys that I hadn't known before. I also have a lot of anxiety with my eye, but they helped me breathe through the various tests that often are a challenge for me. Every staff member I interacted with was fantastic. I will definitely be returning!

I have been going to Voorthuis for my eye exam, frame purchase/fitting, and lenses orders for over…read moreten years. My visit/purchasing experience has consistently been enjoyable and excellent. On my last eye exam with Dr. Burt Mazzia, he worked with me in multiple sessions to find the perfect fitting contact lens brand and prescription. Thank you for being so caring and patient with my fitting Dr. Burt. You Rock! Paul is the best optician I know. He is affable and talented in finding a frame that brings out my best features or gives me a new look. I have worked with him for over ten years and he is consistently fresh and at his best. I recently took my frame to be adjusted after I bent it; he fixed it like brand new in a jiffy with cheers. I also had a chance to work with Avideh, she is wonderful to work with and welcoming. There is a frame she recommended I would like to try on my next purchase. The Voorthuis team has been great to work with. I recommend them for your next eye exam or eye glass purchase.

After my purchase, I needed to submit my prescription separately and arrange for someone else to pick up my frames.

When I came back in for an adjustment, it felt like catching up with an old friend rather than a store visit. I'm already looking forward to my next pair of SEE frames, and I'll be asking for Brandii again.
