    Who walks into an optical shop during their vacation...ME! I am so glad I did because the styles, selection, and customer service was so great! SEE is not like your Warby Parker or anything like that... its in a class of its own. These styles are first come, first serve .. you got it, you're one of a kind awesomeness! The staff is so friendly and knowledgeable. I use to work in the optical field, so to speak with someone who knows what they are talking about and not just acting as a sales person is always a joy. They also accept insurance, so you can use your benefit or purchase out of pocket. I recommend everyone check out SEE when you are in Charleston, SC for all your glasses needs. They have a good selection of Sunglasses as well, so its not just for us who are visibly challenge LOL!

    In the words of the movie Clueless, never trust mirrors... always take polaroids.

    After reading some of the other reviews I am a little surprised. I have bought my last two pairs of glasses and brought in two friends who have both bought glasses here. The sticker price on the glasses is a bit high but they leave some room for negotiations. You have a couple options here. They run Groupons from time to time (which I used on one of my pairs) where you pay $50 for $200. So basically walk in and take $150 of any pair in the place. Not bad. They also send out $100 off coupons in the mail every few months if you get on their mailing list. Lastly, for my first pair, I haggled with the clerk and she ended up giving me $150 off anyway. Just stay away from the extra coatings and stuff.... but all opticians try to get you with that, even Wal-Mart. The deal is that they are supplying new frames in the most current styles without the designer price tag. Off the rack, it pretty much is designer price tag, but if you use one of my foolproof methods above, you should get a reasonable deal. I haven't had any problems with durability and I'm not always the most careful with them. I get more compliments on my current pair of glasses than any article of clothing I have owned... ever... combined. I agree with the comments about Todd. He knows his stuff. I haven't had a problem with anyone else just that sometimes there is a wait if they are tied up with other customers (There is usually never more than two or maybe three employees at any given time). Not really a problem though. Every time I have brought my glasses in for any type of adjustments (purchased at See or not) they are more than happy to help me out with no charge. It seems that some other customers just didn't SEE the light.... get it.... "SEE" is the name of the store.... AND they sell glasses. You don't get the joke? Maybe you need some glasses.... go pick some up at SEE and read it again.

    I have THE best experiences with SEE. The glasses are super trendy. I've purchased at least 4 pairs now over the past few years and I have gotten a ton of compliments on every pair. Being a hairstylist I have a pretty bold sense of style and they have been able to fulfill my needs every single time. I get compliments all day! Kelly is incredible to work with. I love being styled with her great choices. She totally gets what I'm after. A++ Stop in here if you are in Charleston, you won't regret it.

    I know it's taken me forever to leave this review and I guess it's partly because I feel silly for being so deeply excited for a pair of glasses, but I'm going to push that away and try to make this review make sense. From the first time I walked into SEE, the staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. I'd just gotten done working an 8-hour shift in a kitchen, probably stunk, and was definitely looking a little worse for the wear. No matter! I tried on nearly every set of frames in the store and not once did I get the vibe that I was a bother. At that time I knew I wasn't ready to commit to large ticket glasses but the holidays were coming up and after 7 years with the same glasses, I felt like I was entitled to some new ones- so new glasses were the only item on my Christmas list this year. After getting the ball rolling in the store, I was able to make an appointment to get my eyes checked. The doctor could not have been friendlier, more personable, and easy to understand. She answered every question I had thoroughly and in a way I was able to understand without feeling like I was being talked down to. Also she has the cutest fkn dog I've ever seen and he's my new friend. With all of my holiday wishes coming true, I finally ordered the new glasses. I was so excited. Ever since first walking into the store, getting new glasses had become part of my LIFE. I told everyone that I was getting new glasses, and glasses that I was excited to wear!! My old frames were thick black plastic squares- the quintessential nerd or hipster glasses. I'm not that person anymore. I'm much more adult and sophisticated now, or at least I like to think so. I've gone back twice since receiving the glasses for fit adjustments and each time the folks were happy to help, and took extra special care making sure my glasses were perfectly even and feeling good. I'm finally truly excited to wear a pair of glasses!...and that hasn't happened in a long time! I don't recall a single pair of glasses I've owned that have actually boosted my confidence, but I think these ones do! Thank you SEE team!! Thank you all so much. I genuinely couldn't be happier with the process or the final product. TLDR: Great people. Very friendly doctor. Exceptional canine greeter. Hot glasses = hotter you. 10/10 recommend.

I decided to schedule my three kids for their annual exams. One needed glasses and that experience was just as great if not better than mine. She is tiny, the ladies put special holders on her glasses arms to keep them snug and comfortable on her little face because the frame she picked out was a bit big. They were also ready in less than 24 hours!! My little girl is so happy with how her glasses fit, I'm so grateful for the consideration of all of the staff in the office to not only order these pieces for their customers but to use them. I can hardly wait for my glasses to come in!! Thank you Donnie, Dr.Gupta and the ladies whose names I can't remember, I'm sorry you two are amazing. Thank you thank you thank you.

As a last resort, I called Costco who suggested that I reach out to Outer Vision. I'm glad I did. Donny knew exactly what Joe wanted and needed. Hub had his prescription and did not need an exam. There were many frames to choose among at fair prices. As Outer Vision is a provider in our Vision Plan network, we were able to save some money. Donny took our insurance information and the business submitted the paperwork. The only negative was that it took 3 1/2 weeks for the lenses to arrive at the store. All things considered, it was a good experience. If you need prescription glasses, you will want to check them out.

I made an appointment with them for an inflammation in my eye and was not seen by the doctor for almost 2 hours after my appointment was scheduled. I also explained to him a concern for a specific blood test due to my family history , and he wrote me a referral for blood work, but didn't include what I had mentioned. Then, when that information got worse i called to make an appointment or see if they could write me a stronger prescription eye drop for my condition. Instead of telling me they couldn't write a prescription without an appointment they had me wait, and wait, and wait for a call back i was told i would get but never came. I called several times, and finally got my answer. So now my condition is worsening and I have wasted time I could've spent making an appointment else where. I have no issue with there not being time for an appointment, but to not respect my time and condition is disappointing. Will not be returning.

    BIG MISTAKE **** I have been a patient at this practice…read moresince 2013, with my most recent appointment with Dr. Michael Morabito in 2024. During that appointment, Dr. Morabito informed me of his impending departure. Despite this, I chose to remain a patient, relying on Amelia's continued presence. However, during my appointment today, I learned that Amelia is also gone. I am deeply disappointed and will be transferring my care, along with that of my four children, to another provider. As patients and after insurance comes into play this office will be losing right about $375.00-$1000.00 per family member. Which three of us wear daily contacts. I strongly recommend the company reconsider this change and explore re-engaging Dr. Morabito and Amelia. Their expertise in patient care, especially regarding eyewear and contact lenses, was exceptional. I anticipate significant patient attrition as a result of their departure. Furthermore, I found the current office management (Blake) and the new doctor's experience to be unsatisfactory. I believe a review of the current management structure is warranted. Corporate should have better prepared for the transition and the roles Dr. Morabito and Amelia had. good luck, trying to replace them.
