    10/10 highly recommend for anyone in need of getting glasses fixed quick and easy. Superb communication with breaking down the process and payment. Even went above and beyond and fixed how it sits on my nose. I have a crooked nose lol. Extremely satisfied! Thank you.

    Entire new nose pads atrached to my glasses where before there were none!

    Pro-Mec repairs eyeglasses that other outfits can't or won't even touch. I've brought several pairs here to have repaired or altered over the years and I've always been pleased with their service and talent. This most recent time, I brought a new pair of glasses that didn't have nose pads to have Pro-Mec install entire new nose pads on them so that these new glasses sit properly on my nose. He will install entire new nose pads by drilling a tiny hole and then using a dot of glue to hold them in place. Who knew? But he does that too!! Although the nose pads are bigger than I would've preferred, at least I can wear these glasses comfortably! They did a professional job and I would highly recommend them!

    Here is the after results of getting the glasses fixed

    I've been meaning to go to this place for over five years. I had quite a collection of broken glasses. I brought in six pairs of glasses to be repaired. My favorite thing to do is to buy expensive eyewear, fall asleep with it on and break it. The service here was really great and fast. The quality of the repair to my frames and what was broken was exceptional. I really enjoy Alain Mikli and Cutler and Gross frames. He replaced the temples on my Cutler and Gross frames with Italian temples Tom Ford, and I love it because it makes me laugh. It also compliments the frame it makes it even more stylish. I dropped off all these pairs of glasses around 9:30 and all of them were fixed and done around 130. Really friendly helpful and I enjoyed being able to get the glasses. I have not been able to wear in years back again. I am really happy this place exist and I will continue to go back.

    What is the price range to repair a semi-rimless frame (not broken but bent significantly)?

    We need to see it first. Most straightening start at$ 30.00 Solders could start at $45.

    Do you work on small items other than glasses? The clasp of my purse snapped off and I would love to have it repaired. It looks like it was attached with 2 welds.

    No I’m sorry we only work on glasses

    Can you repair broken plastic frame in area around lense?

    If it’s thick enough we can put pins in it and glue it, or just glue your lens in if your glasses are light enough

    Do you add crystals to frame or can you repair frames with lost stones/crystals?

    Sometimes we can, we would have to see your glasses. Thank you for your question

    The thin metal arm of my Prada glasses snapped. The place I got my glasses could only offer to re-order the part but it comes in a pair. I'm wondering if this can be repaired before I resort to spending $$$ for a new part?

    We really would need to see your frame first. Most likely yes we could repair it, most repairs within an hour

    Does anyone tip for the repairs?

They greet you when you come in and provide a nice waiting area. I got my eye exam from Dr. Korrin Goode and she was wonderful. She was thorough and efficient and also specialized in my eye condition. Ian helped me pick out my frames. His approach is what made me feel comfortable because I told him I didn't want to spend much just was looking to use my insurance benefits and he guided me to the right pair of frames. At first I thought they only offered high end designer frames but then I realized that they really do have a pair of frames for just about everybody. I went in to pick up my glasses and Ian told me they were having a promotion and I decided to get another pair since I had just broke my glasses a couple days prior and needed a new casual pair. Ian even offered to repair my old glasses. Overall I see why Total Vision Sports Arena is known for its 5 star reputation. Wonderful experience.

    I had read a lot of reviews and choose Urban Optiks with very high expectations due to the many…read morepositive reviews. They easily met those expectations. I appreciated being able to communicate by phone (especially making appointments) and any calls were answered quickly and efficiently. The office was easy to find (including parking--I must've lucked out!) and was very clean and inviting. I chose very inexpensive glasses and did not feel like they tried to up-sell me beyond what I wanted. I had planned to get the glasses elsewhere but am glad I changed my plans and used their services. The glasses themselves are fine for my needs--a little more plastic-y that I expected but I'm pleased with them and with the pricing. They gave me a hard case for the glasses which means I won't destroy them too quickly. They also included lens cleaner (which they will refill) and a lens cloth. I think I liked everything about my experience here.

    MODERN LUXURY EYE WEAR (5 stars)…read more Get your eyes checked! Majority of us, if not all, pay for these health benefits every pay check and we don't use them. Mind you, your eyes are very important organs - get them checked. With that in mind, I decided to pick a good place based off of reviews because the past few years I went to "convenient places" with an optometry section (Costco, Target) and haven't had that great of service. Back to going to smaller independent optometrist for better overall service. I scheduled the earliest appointment which was about a week out and didn't have any preference on Dr. I ended up getting assigned to Dr. Phu! Depending on time of day, the area can be difficult to find parking - my appointment was at 5:45pm when everyone's coming home and had a difficult time looking for parking and was almost running late to my appointment. I was quickly brought to the back examination room. EXAM. Eye exam with the benefits I have - $10. went with the comprehensive eye exam. There were two options, one to get your eyes diluted (the oldskool way) or not (the newskool way) but with an additional $40 fee. I went this route. Did the regular read letters in different sizes. Then moved to 4 machines that did a variation of testing to check the health of the eyes and etc, do more testings, and take a picture of the anatomy of the eye. Happy to hear everything is fine and I am close to 20/20 vision - although I have worn bifocals since I was 8yrs old and told by several optometrist I have slight stigmatism in my right eye. This exam, there was no stigmatism - if there is it's probably so minor it's not noticeable. And no signs of glaucoma! The exam was about 30m. I reviewed my prescription right away and was not pushed to buy glasses here. FRAME SELECTIONS Very high-end and unique frames! Have you ever seen someone with amazing eyewear and wonder why they got their glasses because it stand out - this is the kind of place where you would get them. The frames here are very pricy but they are also very unique. Many cool ones with personality and pop but my character is very basic and simple that those wouldn't fit me. I asked about what if I brought in my own frames outside (brand new) and they are willing to work with you to get lenses for them. Of course addition paperwork will be filled. I like this place and will bring my future eye service to them. Until the next review...

The manager was incredibly rude, dismissive, and completely useless. No apology, no accountability, nothing. This business is built on lies, zero integrity, and terrible customer service. I've never dealt with such unprofessional behavior. Don't waste your time or your money here -- you'll regret it.

He was very good , but pricey. Also, I didn't always like how his technicians would push optional tests on you that you didn't need. They also didnt always tell you about the cost. You'd walk out of his office after about $300 without contacts or glasses. You could end up spending about $1500 for glasses or more depending on your prescription and if you add all the bells and whistles. At Eyeglass World you usually spend way less. Also, the customer service is outstanding. When I walked in I was greeted by Brian and directed to where I check in for my eye appointment, Tresten checked me in and he was very friendly. Within in 10 minutes I was called into the pre test room where he took a pictures of my eyes did eye measurements and the eye puffer test. He did ask if I wanted to do an extensive eye test for $15, but I declined. Not long after I was put in the exam room and Dr. Yarnell came about 3 minutes later. She was really good. She walks you step by step on your exam and the findings. After the exam I went to look at glasses. I had a friend with to help me look at glasses and see which ones looked the best. I was in between 4 pairs and than Monsay came to help us and she agreed on the glasses that were my number 1 choice. I spent after all the add-ons and insurance discounts $226.30. I'm just deciding if I want the 1 year protection plan for $25. I have 30 days to get it. Anyways great customer care/service. I will be back and have established a new optometrist.
