Although this location is small, the selection seemed to be average in comparison to what you would…read morefind at other Sunglass Huts. But for this visit, I only cared whether they had one particular set of sunglasses in stock. I managed to scratch a pair of 6 week old Oakley's that I had bought at another location. I was on vacation in Newport and had no receipt, but I was curious to see whether they would exchange them. And they did. They traded my damaged pair for a brand new pair with no fuss. They grabbed a new pair from the shelf, took my contact info, and I was on my way. The whole process lasted about 15 minutes, but I didn't mind seeing as how the woman helping me was smoking hot. The wait probably wouldn't have been as long under normal circumstances but the place was jam-packed with 4th of July tourists.

It was a rainy afternoon and I took shelter at the Sunglass Hut, where we were warmly welcomed by…read morethe proprietor. When asked if I needed help, I showed the kind lady my glasses which had lost the tiny screw on the left side causing the lens to fall out. Without hesitation this very kind person spread a cloth on the counter for her tools and my glass frame and lens. She expertly found the correct tiny screw and in a few minutes replaced the lost one. After she graciously cleaned my lenses, she dexterously handed them to me. They were not even sunglasses, but the Sunglass Hut did not discriminate. I count myself to be a very satisfied future customer of this kind, generous and patient establishment. I'll soon be back.

I recently decided to get an eye exam since I've been having a hard time reading smaller prints and…read morelabels and I found out my insurance covers the exam 100% and also covers one pair of glasses every 2 years so decided to get real glasses instead of using the reader's I'd picked up at Walmart! I hate making phone calls and any kind of appointments, but I sucked it up and called this place first and the receptionist was so nice and friendly on the phone. I got an appointment for a few days later and when I got there the person at the front desk was really friendly and helpful, gave me the paperwork to fill out, etc.. I was called in right on time and I the medical assistant or whoever takes your history and starts the exam was awesome, that went great and then the doctor came in, I had Dr Jackson and she was excellent as well. Once I was finished she gave me my prescription and I went over to the eyeglass section and started browsing, the employee over there was great as well, I gave her the paper and my insurance card and she showed me the selection of glasses that were covered, it wasn't a huge selection, but since they were covered 100% by insurance, it was good enough and I saw several pairs I liked and chose the pair that looked best, which I absolutely love. I would recommend this business to anyone, both the doctor and the staff were awesome to work with, I was in and out of there in about an hour and the entire experience was pleasant.

Technically fine but for the exam felt like we were cattle being processed. Staff were not at all…read moreinterested in showing us frames once we said we were not buying that day. We asked them to measure my pupillary distance and they just held a small ruler in my face, and blurted out a number that turned out to be incorrect. We ended up at Warby Parker in Warwick and they had a sophisticated device that measured it to be a different number.
