I flunked my first contact application appointment and I booked a second appointment for contacts at 3:30 hesitantly, explaining I wouldn't be able to arrive until 3:40. I was assured this would be fine. I arrived at 3:40 and went into the doctors' office around 4:10/4:20. I had practiced beforehand and was able to put the contacts in (hooray!). I had an unexpectedly really hard time getting the contacts out though. After trying for a while and asking for help, my doctor Amanda Gannon told me she "didn't know what to tell me" and that if I couldn't get them out by myself or with assistance that I would have to go to the ER and have them surgically removed and that MyEyeDoctor was closing in 10 minutes. She kept telling me that I had to get the contacts out and that they were closing until I started crying. She kindly told me she would wait until I could get them off and after the pressure was taken off, I was able to take out the contacts. She told me I had "gotten myself worked up" and that I would most likely be able to put contacts in at home. I was surprised to see that I left exactly at 5, which is when MyEyeDoctor closes. I can't imagine how hard these eye doctors are working and how much they want to get home, but this is one of those experiences in healthcare that will stick with me. I appreciate the doctor giving me some extra time, but I really feel like this whole thing could have been avoided with different scheduling or with my doctor easing up when she realized I was struggling with the contacts. I did wind up getting them out in time for closing, but I was really scared and upset. Lovely front of desk people, nurses, and doctors, and I've had very positive experiences with my glasses, so perhaps this was just a bad day.

Dr. Katz herself is a very knowledgable, caring doctor who has provided me with more than just vision care. I have relied on her expertise to see me through (no pun intended) a rather serious eye problem that I had previously only trusted an eye surgeon to care for. She has proven herself to be a more thorough and caring provider than the specialist! The staff at AVC is super nice and one of the women who works in the reception area (forgot her name) is especially knowledgable about insurance -- a rare find these days! The waiting area is small and comfy, with complimentary coffee, TV, and magazines. There is never a very long wait. I do not feel overly pressured with sales pitches to purchase glasses or lenses here, which is refreshing. That said, I did purchase glasses for my child, who is very picky and actually found a pair to their liking. On top of all that, this facility has state-of-the art machinery for testing your eyes. (How cool to see a picture of the inside of your own eyeball!)

I spent over $700 out-of-pocket on a pair of glasses, and my insurance paid for the rest. Within a month a lens scratched and Advanced repalced it. Less than a year after my purchase what looked like a grain of sand became embedded in a lens. Also I noticed the red paint was starting to chip from the metal frame. I came in and immediately the person at the counter said something like sorry, we no longer carry that brand. Not understanding why that should be my problem, I asked to speak to the manager. He was pretty rude & said there was nothing that could be done about the paint and then acted like he would do me a big favor - rather than standing by his product - by replacing the lens, while trying to make me feel like this was my fault. He expalained that he had the same brand glasses and multiple children who were regularly grabbing them off his face, yet he never had a problem with these glasses. That's a great story, but I'll never return here!

Harney billed my insurance company $60 for the exam which did not even net me a new prescription. I ended up going to the optical department of my local Costco which charged a $100 fee for the exam and fitment. Lens costs where also as cheap as you will find on the Internet. 5 stars for Costco, 0 stars for ripoff artist Harney, but I have to select at least one to post this review.
