Came in for a simple restring they had my glasses for two days and told me that they weren't able to do it ,place is a joke .

I made an appointment 2 months in advance and when I showed up for the appointment I was told I should have received a text message to confirm. I had not received any text message and so was told my appointment was given away. I showed them an email I had received the day before confirming my appointment but she said it didn't matter. They had given away my appointment. This is unacceptable and I will not be going to this store again. read more

I've had a terrible experience with Visionworks from the initial optometrist exam that said I had a detached retina, which I didn't have, to the glasses that obviously didn't fit me. I've had to go into vision Works shops four times with two different pairs of glasses that still don't fit. To add insult to injury I wanted the protection plan and buy some policy. I can't get it even though I asked for it at the very start of this nightmare. Buyer beware read more

our appointment was. Scheduled for 12:30 pm we arrived at 12:45 PM just 15 minutes late when we got there she told us that the person was at lunch. I asked that was we only 15 minutes she could not give a clear she told we have to come back at 2 that customer service at vision works is extremely important and what I experienced today was completely unacceptable the representative Amanda I dealt with showed very poorly customer service truly terrible and unprofessional her attitude tone and the way she handled my questions mad it clear that she needs to be retrained immediately when you work in customer service you are representing the entire store not just yourself the way she spoke and carried herself didn't reflect the standards that a business like vision works should stand for her behavior was dismissive unhelpful and lacked basic courtesy it almost felt like she didn't care at all about assisting customers and at times it seemed like she was irritated just by being asked simple question customers service should make people feel welcome respected and supported instead I felt brushed off that is unacceptable from anyone working at the front line company her attitude tone was unacceptable the kind of service the kind of service the leaves a ban impression and makes people not want to return on the survey I had no chat but to give all zeros the experience was that terry no customer should even walk out feeling that way I felt disappointed frustrated and questioning how someone with behavior like that represents visio works need to be addressed immediately to ensure no one else has to deal with such unprofessional conduct read more

I went there with my sister months ago as she got her glasses tightened, they gladly tightened mine also even though they weren't purchased there. I went back two weeks ago because my glasses had broken, they could not repair them but offered to put the lens in a frame. I got an inexpensive frame, no hard sales pitches. I was also told that the AARP membership got me a 50% discount. So helpful. my husband took his glasses there ( also purchased elsewhere), and they cheerfully fixed them. The customer service is amazing!! I wish I had gotten all the names but regretfully, I didn't. The only name I had was Zenobia because she held my frames till I got back with my AARP card. The other 2 employees were guys. read more

I had an appointment today at this location from the time you walk in was greeted and seen immediately. The whole staff was great the first person a young lady that did my exam to the eye doctor was very professional and answered all my questions. The checkout person alex was very informative and answered all my questions. I will tell everyone I know about this location great customer service from beginning to end. Keep up the good work will be back read more

I scheduled an eye exam, so I could exhaust my current Health Spending funds. But alas, I arrived 11 minutes late to the appointment. It took almost two minutes to navigate through the parking lot, because ppl behave confused in parking lots, driving slow, etc.. So, I arrive 11 minutes late. First off, let's talk about bad customer service. No greeting when you enter. If I'm not mistaken, customers is how businesses stay open and staff paid. But, I digress. I'm 11 minutes late, I apologize and give my name. The guy at the desk (with an unfriendly disposition to be working at the front of the store facing customers), I assume looks up my appointment. I assume, because he did not say anything to me. Not one word.. Again, bad customer service. He continues looking a good 2, almost 3 minutes. A women walks in behind me, give her name and he sends her to the back for her appointment. But, not two words about my appointment. Hmmm...I tell him that I do have an appointment and have the confirmation. He FINALLY SPEAKS... says I'll have to wait to see if someone cancels and that they give customers a 10 minute grace period. Thanks for letting me know.. It took him a good 2 almost 3 minutes to do whatever he was doing on the computer. I looked at my watch and it was 13 minutes past my appointment time. Also, I see another reviewer gave them one star a month ago, because of an excessive wait time. I guess they're turning over a new leaf of punctuality. I left. Why would I wait around to "see" if someone cancels?? Is this the only place in town? The exam probably would've been laced with nonsense as well, since such foolishness is happening at the front of the store. Just a complete waste of my time AND gas. read more

Messaged me several times about a scheduled appointment. When I showed up they said I wasn't scheduled. A joke of a business.

No respect for peoples time. I waited over an hour to see the dr who was still clearly very much in the middle of an appointment and wasn't wrapping up anytime soon. No one even gave me the heads up there would be over an hour wait. I left work early to be on time and respectful of their time, it was not reciprocated. Also it's the dead of winter and I'm bundle up in multiple layers and not once did anyone offer for a place to hang my jacket up. I picked visionworks because I thought it was be more efficient. BIG MISTAKE. I will be going back to private practice and have learned my lesson. Only redeeming factor was the Drs assistant was extremely sweet. Still would have been nice to be informed there would be a wait. read more

I had an annual eye exam done by Dr. Elizabeth Hanno, OD, she was extremely knowledgeable and patient with me and took the time to explain my Dx and treatment. Additionally, her staff was so kind and the process was seamless with minimal wait times. They take all necessary precautions with the COVID pandemic sanitizing everything diligently - even the glasses you try on. Highly recommend this location and staff. Definitely need vision insurance as it was quite pricey even with it. read more

This is my 4th time here and my last. The doctor here now is EXTREMELY slow, which might work great for her older patients but I don't have the time for that. My appointment was over an hour ago and they told me I still need to wait at least another 15 minutes which we all know means 30 minutes or more. All I want is a refill on my contact prescription and they won't give it to me without seeing her first, not even a trial pair. Very frustrated because as in most doctors offices they don't care how long you wait, we're at their mercy. I think a private practice will be getting my business from now on. read more

I hate that I have to give it a rating. Customer Service at this place sucks. They made a mistake on my prescription and then gave me grief about it, when asking them to rectify it. Cindy the worker there sucks. I was trying out a new location. I will never go there again and you shouldn't either. read more

Our family was visiting Chicago when part of my glasses broke. We went on driving the place and I had to enjoy the scenery with my near blind eyesight. We then stopped by this place and I told the lady in the front what was wrong with my glasses. She took it in the back, 5 minutes later brought it out good as new with no charge. So thankful, the trip was saved. read more

Staff was polite and helpful, but it takes forever for items to come in. I ordered glasses and contacts 12/20/2011...i was called last week that contacts are in and I am still waiting for glasses. Will likely not return because it takes too long and the staff have no explanation as to why...im a psych major, therefore i MUST have answers!! read more

The Doctor is extremely slow. I've been waiting for 1 hour to be seen and she is socializing with other people like your time isn't important. Plus it's a limited selection on the frames read more

There are rare times when you meet someone who really cares about customer service. Thank you Toya at Vision works in Evergreen Park for taking good care of my mom and me during our recent visit. She took the time to help us pick out frames and was very patient with from us from the very beginning. Dr. B read more

So I went in the other day because I needed glasses and contacts, and the sweetest young lady approached me and helped me find glasses I believe her name was Estephany Mendoza, she was the kindest most sweetest worker there. She helped me find the perfect glasses and I'm obsessed I will definitely go back to her when I need help! read more

This place is is absurd. I went there last year for glasses and swore I would never return. This year I decided to give them the benefit of the doubt. Mistake!!! I took a contact eye exam and this was on the third...they told me my contact should be here around seven to ten business days. Its now the 20th and they told me they are on back order...whatever that means!?!. I don't care how blind you are, it does not take almost a month to receive contact lens. Poor management , not properly trained in customer service, knowledgeable about nothing! People please stay away from vision works. You could probably get your order from India with better customer service faster. read more

It was OK. The store staff was not aware of my insurance and I'm sure someone from the cta with bluecross had been in there before. They didn't. Explain all the charges until I asked. It going to take ten to fourteen days for my glasses. read more

Horrible service! They prescribed me contacts and told me that they were gonna be ready on June 4th. It's the 5th of July and I still haven't received a text or call to go pick them up. I decided to call and ask, and apparently I have special contacts that take longer to be shipped, but I was never informed about this. I leave out of the country tomorrow and they said that my contacts will be ready by the end of the week. This is ridiculous, yet they have charged me. Just don't go. read more

I never write reviews, if the service bad I just never return. But customer service at this location is terrible. Get reminder after reminder to get the annual eye exam for my daughter, finally schedule it, get a call 1 hour before the appointment the called to say the was verifying my insurance and it says my daughter was ineligible to get the exam. They canceled the appointment, so I rescheduled it for January 12th. It was the end of December so a couple more weeks wouldn't hurt. But then something wasn't right because I know you get an annual exam each year, I did mine so my daughter still had hers remaining, so I checked my insurance online and my daughter was eligible to get hers for the year. They already canceled her appointment, tried to call back to tell them their mistake, but no one answered the phone. Then my daughter broke her frames just a couple days later, called up and ask can I buy just frames so I can switch the lenses, was told I can't buy frames by itself. I would have to buy lenses and frames. I'm like wtf never heard of that. I called Visionworks in Chicago Ridge and they told me I can buy frames without lenses. So I went to them and explained what the Visionworks in Evergreen Park said and he said he doesn't understand why they said that. Saturday, January 9th, I confirmed my appointment and filled out the paperwork via email, just to get there today for them to tell me my appointment has been canceled. I say why ain't nobody call me and tell me. She said we called u Saturday to tell u it had been canceled. I tell her why would you all send me an email to confirm my appointment if you all canceled it make it make sense. She tells me they don't have control over that. So never again will I go to this location. Makes me don't even wanna do business with Visionworks truthfully. read more

I ordered contact lens on 4/29/19 was told they can ship to my house, oh wow great NOOOOOO I'm still waiting they trying to tell me I received them NOOOOOO . They act like its my fault its not, today's date is 6/18/19 I would like the Manager of this location to contact me Asap read more

Great staff! Wonderful experience and I look forward to going back to this location in the future. Thank you, for assisting me with my order. read more

I will never shop at Visionworks again. The wait was ridiculous over and hour and a half to purchase some contacts. I didn't even need an eye exam since my last one was less then a month ago. The store was short staff 2 employees which is absurd for a Saturday afternoon. When I need glasses or contacts in the future it won't be at Visionworks. read more

They made sure I got every discount available. The optometrist was amazing and informative. I'm looking good in my new eyewear.

I am so used to businesses that don't give a crap about the customer that I was shocked at how helpful the workers are at this Visionworks. From the people at the front desk, the optometrist, everybody - helpful, nice. What more could I want??? Everyone is eager to help the moment you walk in the door. No waiting around forever to see the doctor. The workers are very friendly and patient with you; some even came to recognize my name and face. Anytime you need your eyes checked, this is the for sure place to go. read more

I did not have a good experience when i visit the visioneork site at 2333 W 95 th street. The lady was rude, did not tell me her name but the young man had much better. Customer service attitude..... read more

it was a big mistake doing business at visionworks. the glasses broke after one year. the staff refused to repair or replace the glasses do not shop here mj read more

I am a marketing expert and businessman and when I tell you that their organizational structure is horrible, it is. Number one, I call and they tell me that they will take me as a walk-in and to come before 2 (doctor goes to lunch then). I said no problem, I come in at 12:20. They then say that they have to take appointments before me. I said ok but I thought they had better structure with walk-ins. I waited all the way til two as they took about 3-4 people before me then they tell me to come back at 3. I come back at three and they say they have 2 now and I should reschedule. This is when I got pissed off. If you are taking walk ins there should be better structure on how walk-ins get seen as well as appointments! If all appointments come in, walk-ins can't be seen and that is RIDICULOUS. I'm still sitting here now and the only reason I'm giving two stars in because the African-American lady is trying to fit me in regardless of appointments. They want you to sit in here hours and hours in hopes that someone don't show up to an appointment. That's not good business. They have to do better. My suggestion, is have a time slot every other hour that is for walk-ins only. Do better vision works. I'll take my blue cross somewhere else! read more

Avoid this place. It's bad news. My first visit was wonderful. The optometrist was great. The lady who helped me with the frames was fantastic -- one of the best I've ever seen. So why the 1 star review? First of all, they never called me to tell me my glasses were in. I only found out by calling them. When I went to pick up my glasses, I had a horrible experience. The lady behind the desk was rude and graceless and has no business being in retail. She handed by my glasses in a case and said, "Here, they're done." I stood around waiting to be told which table to go to for a fitting but she walked away. So I went over to a desk and sat down and put them on. I was trying to see how they fit. Vicious lady walks over and says, "They're perfect." I've been wearing glasses for over 50 years and know that you can't fit glasses by looking. It usually takes someone 15 to 20 minutes to get the fit right on me. You have to feel where the pressure points are on the head and make sure they are balanced properly on the ears, which in my case are uneven. (As I sit writing this I can feel the left ear piece digging into my head and know I will have to go someplace and pay to have them fitted.) I asked about accessories. She couldn't be bothered. Pointed across the store and said "Go look". Never once did she sit down and spend time with me. It's ashamed that the good work of some employees is absolutely nullified by a rotten apple. Once this Visionworks has your money they could care less about providing full service. Do yourself a favor: GO ELSEWHERE! read more
