I then escalated it to the company executives, after which they finally addressed my concerns. They provided a full refund and issued an apology. I appreciate their effort to resolve the issue, and I hope they improve their customer service moving forward. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Original review: Beatrice at this store is the rudest salesperson I have ever encountered. She was pleasant before I placed my order, but afterward, she became very rude and unprofessional. I specifically requested the thinnest lenses because I cannot wear thick, heavy eyeglasses. However, despite paying over $2,000, the 1.74 index lenses she provided were significantly thicker and more than twice as heavy as my old 1.67 index lenses. When I visited this store to pick up my eyeglasses, I was carrying a Hermès Birkin bag and placed it on a table. Without my permission, Beatrice suddenly touched my bag and moved it to another table. She then asked me if my bag was "a real Hermès." I was shocked and offended by this inappropriate question and asked, "What do you mean? Why would I buy a fake Hermès?" She responded that because my bag was lighter than another client's Birkin bag, implying that mine might be counterfeit. As a loyal Hermès customer who spent over $14,000 on this handbag, I find Beatrice's behavior very inappropriate and disrespectful. A salesperson should never make unsolicited judgments about a customer's belongings, especially in a high-end retail setting where professionalism and customer experience should be a priority. Beyond this incident, I also experienced poor service when following up on my eyeglasses order. I called Beatrice twice--once to request a receipt and once to check if my eyeglasses were ready for pickup. Both times, Beatrice said she was very busy with in-store clients, promised to get back to me soon, and quickly hung up. However, she never called me back, even after several hours, so I had to visit the store in person to speak with her. When I asked why she hadn't followed up, she simply said, "I'm busy with clients in the store." This is far from the concierge-level service Morgenthal Frederics promotes. I can only hope that Beatrice is not too busy in the store judging whether other clients' handbags are real or fake.

I'm giving 2 stars instead of 1 because up to that point everything was fine--but a comment like that is beyond the pale.

I wanted to replace the lenses on mine and they quoted me about $450 with insurance. At Costco, I had to pay $90 without insurance. If you've had lasik in the past and currently need contacts, the optometrist will have no idea what to do with you. She kept giving me soft contacts when they were clearly the wrong option for me. I had to read up on it myself. Lasik flattens the cornea and creates small irregularities in it, so soft contacts do not stay in the correct place and usually do not provide the correction you need. She could've done some research instead of asking me to go back to try on different soft contacts. The optometrist actually said I had to go to her again (!!) and try another type of soft contacts before she would give me a referral. I almost rolled my eyes. The poor girl was clueless, and I had better things to do with my time than to hang out at Optyx. I don't know what the rule is for optometrists, but physicians have to prescribe what's best for you, not what's more or less OK.
