When I went in over lunch break I found a half a dozen frames that I liked and narrowed them down to 2 frames. Mr. Shifflet, the owner, gave me his opinion and asked his daughter to come look too. I took selfies to show my husband that night and he immediately told me I should take the glasses home and show him in person. I have never had this good service anywhere else. Parking is plentiful, the store has a lot of frames and sunglasses to choose from and the service is outstanding. I will be a repeat customer.

At the 90th minute I found this office and made an appointment before I left Charlottesville for the summer. The office was super accommodating and helpful throughout my process. What really made this place deserve 5 stars is what happened almost a year after. I was in Mexico City for some time and realized I could take advantage of the cheap prescription sunglasses there. With only a few days left, I called the office back in the states to get my prescription. Eventually the phone was picked up and I was told that they are not in the location I had my exam at and asked if I can wait until the next day. Since I couldn't, they had someone stop by the office to take a picture of my prescription to send it to me. This isn't something every office would do for you and for that I am forever grateful. Highly recommended.

My glasses were made to the prescription exactly, but it became clear within months that they really were not helping me with my distance Vision and I could not read the instruments without nausea. Visionworks urged me to go back to my doctor to have my eyes rechecked, and, sure enough, the prescription was significantly off. Even though the mistake was no fault of theirs, vision Works cheerfully remade the glasses at absolutely no cost to me. Blown away. It Doesn't get any better than this, folks.

I had my suglasses tuned up by one of the "associates" at the Barracks location, where the the lenses were broken within 5 minutes of handling. Since the frame was discontinued, I was offered very limited options as far as replacements. Long story short - my sunglasses were broken and was given an insulting 10% discount on my next purchase. I would consider playing "frogger" on I-495 before ever going into that shop again.

I know that sometimes there is not much an ophthalmologist can do, but as with every medical…read moreprofessional, listening to a patient is most important. I had an awful experience with UVA Eye Clinic both at West Main Complex and Northridge Centre. They eventually refused to treat me without any valid reason whatsoever. Dr. McKenna of EyeOne saw me about 2 weeks ago and we discussed having a capsulotomy on the right eye (YAG OD). She didn't raise my hopes, but being the courteous professional that she is, Dr. McKenna informed me that she would perform the procedure because it makes medical sense to do so instead of waiting for one year later when it would have to be done. She performed the capsulotomy, and I am able to see so much better. I still have a blur occasionally, but I have noticed it is becoming less frequent by the day. I am optimistic that the blur will eventually disappear completely. It's little things like this which make a huge difference in a patient's life. A big thank you to Dr. McKenna and EyeOne for great service! I will recommend EyeOne in a heartbeat. John Gabriel https://independent.academia.edu/JohnGabriel30

I had been a patient of Dr. Todd Long for about 23 years, and was extremely happy with the care I…read morereceived. Dr. Long performed cataract surgery on both eyes, with "clean up" surgery when I had floaters after each surgery. When I called the office about flashing lights in one eye, he saw me right away....saw that I had a torn retina and sent me immediately to a retina specialist. All this happened in one afternoon, with surgery 2 days later. The staff at the front desk were always friendly and helpful, as were the technicians and eyeglass specialists. I had complete faith and confidence in Dr. Long, and could reach the office directly by phone. Then Dr. Long retired. I had a bad year in 2023, with two major abdominal surgeries following an extended illness. Needing to get back on track, I contacted EyeOne to make an appointment. The phones are answered off premise these days, so I requested an appointment on the website. The following week I received an email from Kaitlin. In the end I was told the next available appointment was July 11....four months wait! Not happy. Showed up on July 11 at 1:00 pm. Three people at the front desk. One never looked up the entire time, nobody said anything, but the one in the middle looked at me. I told her who I was. She looked at her computer and said the office had called me on July 3 and left a message saying my appointment was canceled and to call to reschedule. Dr. McKenna was out of the office, called away on an emergency.....which was apparently anticipated on July 3. [They called my cell, which is kept on its charger and never listed as my primary phone. EyeOne has always called our home...for both my husband and me. ]. I checked my phone and did see they had called, but there was no message on my cell, no call to my home, and no text or email. I was then told they could reschedule my appointment on September 10. No thank you!
