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 thought they were beyond repair, but they're actually more comfortable now than they were before. I really appreciate her help. When it comes time to buy a new pair of glasses (which, at this rate, will be soon) I plan to opt for Visionworks. But guys, start carrying Tom Ford glasses! They're great.

They seem to really move through customers without making you feel rushed. They're also not trying to convince you to do every exam to charge extra. Last year I got my eyes dialated, and this year I did not need to. I didn't want to but was glad to hear my doctor recommend holding off for another year herself! Makes you feel like they care, at least a little bit. Overall the staff is friendly and helpful. Did not find/have problems. They are relatively easy to set an appointment with (online or by phone). I say this is one of my better eye appointment experiences without feeling like I've wasted a whole day!

This is an excellent store to find your crafty products.

(I was actually trying to find an ABC location.) For an excellent and very descriptive review, please read the one posted by "Taylor R" on 2/4/2023. I hope the pictures I have posted will help explain the pricing and the hours they are open. This is a must visit for people who enjoy being crafty, scrappy, and artistic.

It's an adorable shop run by an amazing group of incredible, caring people who put a great deal of time and effort into curating a welcoming environment for people from all walks of life. They are very selective about the items that they agree to consign, so shoppers have a ton of high-quality, in-style options to choose from. It's honestly dangerous to go in there because there is always something cute that I MUST have; however, if you have a clothing problem like I do, when you're not buying new, you can at least shop with a clean conscience! On the other end, the consignment process is simple, clear, and quick, and you are reasonably compensated when your items sell, especially if you opt for store credit payout. The dressing rooms are honestly my favorite part. When you walk in, you're greeted by hundreds of sticky notes with positive affirmations posted by other shoppers. It's like the positivity and immediate camaraderie you find in the womens' restroom at a club (but without all of the bottom-shelf liquor). Shop small, and shop secondhand!

From looking at my online status, it appears that my glasses were ordered a week after my eye exam. MyEyeDr re-ordered my tinted lenses, which also kept being delayed. As of today, I have still not received them. I also received no updates from MyEyeDr. I had to either call or go into the store for updates. In the meantime, I ordered another pair of glasses and lenses online, and received numerous updates from the online store. The glasses from the online store arrived in 10 days and were much less expensive and of equal or better quality. I would not buy glasses from MyEyeDr again, but I would see their optometrist.
