This is the Vision Centre inside the Leduc Walmart. I've been getting headaches and wanting to…read morechange my glasses, so I booked a last minute eye appointment here. I called in the morning and they were able to fit me in for 6pm. You don't need an appointment if you just want to browse around or buy something like glasses (if you know your prescription), but you do need an appointment for the eye exam. They take Alberta Blue Cross if you have it. If not you have to pay up front and go through any benefits plan you have to get reimbursed. Remember to keep your receipts and all that. I came in and they did two pretests with one of the ladies from The Vision Centre. The one where you look the the lens and see the balloon, the other where they puff the air into your eye. Having worn glasses since I was 10 I'm used to both tests, except the air puff one still made me blank and move my head back. Had to do that one twice for each eye because my first times didn't give an accurate reading. The optometrist Dr. Ramsey did my eye exam. It was pretty straight forward, and surprisingly my eye sight hasn't worsened as badly as I would have expected. My right eye changed slightly, but left stayed the same. Dr. Ramsey was friendly and helpful, and made sure to ask if there was any family vision history that would affect my vision (is there ever). He also asked me if I had any questions for him. I'd been looking at some online glasses retailers, which require you to know your PD number (pupilary distance). Apparently the optometrists at The Vision Centre don't do that reading...Walmart Vision Centre does and they charge $25 for it. I got the reading. Pretty sure that number doesn't change so I'll keep it on hand for future glasses shopping. I did look around at some of their glasses. They have a sale on at the moment where you can get 2 pairs of glasses for $170, except if you have a strong prescription like mine, after all the lens coatings and other things it's about $280 for 2 pairs of glasses. It's not a bad deal. I tried on a few of the test frames, but since I could really see how I looked with them on (my glasses were off and I don't wear contacts) I didn't buy anything. They sell glasses kits, lens clothes, cleaners, etc. here. As well they also have prescription contacts. If you buy lens cleaner from them you can get a free refill when you bring in the bottle.

Considering the location and the service you receive after, its okay to pay a little more in my book. The after service is really good, they will take care of any imperfections or defects and they fix things if they are not right. They also provide a good warranty on prescription glasses etc. i will continue to use them going forward.
