As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by everyone and treated like family by Tom, the owner. I can't help but want to support this business even more! This is a family business that has been operating for 2 generations. It's conveniently located in Highland Square and even has ample parking in the back! Not only do they offer glasses and eye exams, but they also offer glasses repairs. I was even able to get my prescription added onto some sunglasses that I had sitting around. I know that this is the best place to get your glasses and anything related in Akron. I can't wait to come back!!

No matter what the customer IN THE STORE should take priority over those calling. PERIOD. I was also tricked into spending more money on a prescription because it was nearly "out of date". The lady told me that I should take another eye exam, because if the glasses came for my old prescription AFTER the expiration, they couldn't legally give me the glasses - which sounds like total BS. I looked it up when they were on the phone with another customer, and those associates do indeed get commission for scheduling new eye appointments. I felt completely taken for. Will not be returning again. I feel like the customer interaction is sub-par at best, and that isn't even saying a whole lot.

I went back to the Wadsworth, Ohio, Walmart Optical and found that they had the same frame in my size, in stock.

AAron gently adjusted my frames with knowledge and skill. I expect to use this source of eyeglasses in the future.

When I went in for my checkup at the Green office in May, I had no idea that in October, I'd still…read morebe struggling to get a pair of glasses that I could comfortably wear. In May, I had two pair of glasses that fit me perfectly. By the time I finally gave up on Handel Vision, I not only had no usable new glasses, but the old ones were ruined as well, all the result of information withheld and a couple of plain old untruths. Dr. Slavik told me I needed to get new glasses, as my eyes had changed significantly. In spite of already being in the middle of some personal issues, I went ahead and ordered glasses. To make the transition less nerve-racking, I ordered the exact same make and model (plastic) frames as one of the pair I had been wearing. Things went south early when the completed eyewear arrived with wired nose pads installed. I had them send them back and when the replacement pair came in, they could not fit them to me properly. At this point, Dr. Slavic told me they could simply pull the lenses and put them in my old pair and my problem would be solved. Well, they did that and they ruined my old pair, twisting them out of shape. Even putting the old lenses back in did not salvage them. Well, at least I still had one old pair I could wear. However, the prescription in those was extremely old. Optician Sandy told me that they could create new lenses for them and they would not change the fit by doing so. Foolishly, I agreed to this solution. Needless to say, when that pair came back with new lenses installed, I didn't even need to put them on to see that they were completely ruined. I went back and forth with their optical department for months, including ordering (on my own) another pair of frames of the same make and model they initially ordered for me, and having them make completely new lenses for them. Again, they could not adjust them to fit comfortably. I spoke with the owner of the practice (Tom Handel), and he promised me they would resolve things. He had me go to the Fairlawn office where the head optician again was unable to resolve the issue. By now it was October. The whole process had engulfed my life... as, of course, seeing is pretty important. Out of desperation, I asked Dr. Handel if he could recommend an expert in the NE Ohio area that could help me to resolve my issue. The only response I got was to go back to his optician and try on more frames (and of course make yet another purchase on top of the ~$1000 I had already spent). I kick myself continually for going back to this place repeatedly and actually expecting to get my problem resolved. "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." My mental health has suffered since May, but I am finally starting to regain it having "cut bait" with this outfit and going elsewhere. If you want to remain sane, do yourself a favor and find just about any practice other than this one.

It didn't make sense. I tried to explain to them again that being a customer, I had limited ability but they still replied with the same answer. The USPS customer service was no help either. After going through all kinds of troubles, finally, I figured a way to contact the Walmart vision center customer service headquarter myself and got a replacement. There are different levels of customer services in a company and they could have had solved this issue. I didn't know why they did not try to contact the headquarter or some sort of upper management to solve the issue. Obviously, if I could get in touch with the headquarter, the local vision center could do the same too. It was just a matter of willingness.

I've been in Customer Service all my life, and I can tell you that the receptionist here needs some *serious* training. No greeting, no informing you the doctor is running behind schedule, nothing. We were the only ones in the sitting area, as well. And when I let her know we'd been waiting over half an hour and needed to go now, all she said was, "Ooookay..?" No apology, no offer to reschedule, no friendly goodbye. It was such a strange, disappointing experience. Also, inappropriate music was playing in the waiting area. Not a professional look. Hopefully this was a fluke for the Office, but it was all more than enough to send us elsewhere.
