Luckily, I found Optical Underground, and they made the whole process easy. They knew right away that there is more than one kind of office progressive lens, and when the wrong lenses were sent, they didn't just hand them over and send me on my way. Instead, they told me immediately and ordered the correct replacements. The quality was clearly much better than the cheap online glasses I had started with, and once I realized the original lenses weren't right for me, I found another pair of the same frames and they swapped in the correct lenses without any hassle. The staff was knowledgeable, quick, friendly, professional, and open late, with great prices and high-quality lenses. If you have smart glasses and aren't sure how to get lenses for them, I'd definitely recommend checking them out.

Ended up at site for sore eyes 5 min walking from them and got both pair repaired/adjusted in less 1min, FOR FREE. friendly excellent customer service there. Will never buy a single pair from this store again and recommend any potential buyer stay away from them as well. They don't carry anything special neither any special value on their merchandise anyways. Those who do not Stand behind their after sale service should never get repeated business, simple. Our great city is still in decline however this doesn't mean any services should also be in decline as well. (This is my very first yelp 1 star review btw). Thanks for your attention!

In my endless search for the right pair of eyewear, I've never experienced a place quite like Time…read moreFrame. As so many others have mentioned, the collections of Japanese vintage eyewear here are truly special, each carrying its own story and character. What left the deepest impression on me wasn't just the eyewear itself. It was the exceptional hospitality, craftsmanship, and customer care that came with it. Curtis, the owner, deserves special recognition. You can immediately tell the difference when someone genuinely cares about what they do. What could easily be a simple business transaction becomes something much more meaningful. His passion for curation is evident in every interaction, and it naturally extends to the people around him in sincerity. Despite my multiple troubling visits for adjustments, Curtis treated me every time with the same warmth and patience as the first - if not with even greater kindness. That level of care is something I genuinely appreciate and deeply respect. I'm already looking forward to my next visit in the fall. Whether you need a pair or a place for inspiration, I wholeheartedly recommend Time Frame in the Mission as your next stop!

STELLAR service from the start. I made an appointment to see some frames in person because I was…read moreseeking a "forever frame" for my prescription glasses; I was tired of purchasing frames that I just didn't truly enjoy. I found a frame shape on Ahlem's site that was just so unique, I had to try it on. I had no idea that the appointment would be such a bespoke experience, and was not expecting it to be like it did. I was a bit nervous about it, tbh, but the sales associate was reassuring and helpful in finding other frames for me to try on that suited my face shape just so I can experiment with other styles. Luckily the frame that I had my eye on actually suited me in person! It took a couple of weeks, and since I actually live away from SF, I had opted to have them ship it to me instead. Today I received my frames, and could not be happier. It was packaged with care, and still fit exactly as it did when the glasses were molded to my face during my fitting. I'm truly so excited to finally have my "forever frames"! Thank you, Ahlem!

Gorgeous showroom selection of their own line of glasses, and they don't pressure you to buy. Location: lovely Hayes Valley with some free street parking and lots of options to eat/shop after Technology: I used to think state of the art equipment didn't matter for a routine eye exam, but it makes for a more comfortable experience, helps establish baseline images, and identify things otherwise easily missed so you can monitor Service: Easy check in and check out process at the front Appointments: Love the ease of scheduling appointments online and easy to get a hold of on the phone. Appointments are on time with plenty of time to ask lots of questions (which is encouraged). Saturday appointments are much appreciated. Dr: Supportive, friendly, calm demeanor, comprehensive and extremely detailed, takes a lot of notes to build a comprehensive file, good at explaining concepts and very patient Emergency: I had a tiny stray piece of velcro fly into my eye and I freaked out about it because I couldn't find the velcro. It was totally fine like she suspected but I super appreciate she squeezed me in same day to calm my nerves.

Dr. Jenny Yuen of See Saw Seen (SSS) and her staff are great. They are hospitable, punctual, and…read morevery communicative with answering questions and having cordial conversations. I loved that she accepted my VSP vision plan and my out-of-pocket costs for contact lens prescription was very reasonable. I also liked that she books Sat appointments. Her diagnostic remote control equipment is state-of-the-art and it made my exam very comfortable and quick. I have never seen as well with contact lenses as I have with her CL prescription and she was very accommodating with my preference for a prescription for inexpensive daily wear 30-day lenses vs more costly daily disposable ones. I really appreciated that. I also love the office's interior design with LEGO models that I'm sure her pediatric patients love and the nice design scientific optical medicine mathematical formula wallpaper. I didn't order eyeglasses from SSS so I am not sure how that service works, but she definitely had a great selection of frames. Overall, SSS has been my favorite optometrist in San Francisco and I will definitely return for an updated prescription. SSS definitely gets a well-deserved 5-stars from me!

Lorence was attentive, knowledgeable, and honest, offering thoughtful advice about the pros and cons of each style I tried without being pushy.

The staff are fantastic and give each individual the attention need. I you are like me you hate shopping. I stopped in one day in March looking for help sorting through the selection and the staff here helped me pick out which frames looked best with my face shape and the use that I was looking for. I wanted something lightweight, that provided coverage but didn't fully cover my face, and that could be worn frequently in San Francisco's ever changing weather. They met every expectation! Plus I got a fantastic pair of glasses for half off! They also have a cleaning kit that is refillable for life which I love refillables, they cut down on single use products. Finally, my glasses were damaged in a freak accident and they repaired them on the spot basically saving me hundreds of dollars and creating even less waste for the landfills because I didn't have to toss them. I will be buying all my glasses agree from now on.
