    crack on edge of lens

    Here's the summary if you don't want read the long version. I've had it with Visionworks. I've now had three sets of lenses crack due to their cheap, low-quality materials and incompetent lab work. Every single time, they've tried to blame anything but their own shoddy craftsmanship. The lenses were consistently fitted improperly, causing stress fractures where they met the frames -- a basic issue any decent optical lab should catch and correct. But it gets worse: they refused to stand behind their product. No apology, no accountability, no real help. Just a frustrating cycle of excuses and the same poor-quality replacements destined to fail again. And don't get me started on their customer service -- rude, dismissive, and utterly useless. You'd get more empathy and problem-solving from a vending machine. I spent good money expecting basic quality and service, and instead got a masterclass in how not to treat your customers. Avoid Visionworks like the plague. Visionworks' motto: "If you were hoping for glasses that help you see, you're in the wrong hell. Our frames are crooked, our lenses are cursed, and our customer service is powered by apathy and spite. At Visionworks, we don't just disappoint--you'll leave questioning the point of sight itself. That's our promise. That's our punishment." Long version of complaint I had one of the absolute worst experiences ever with both the quality of the eyewear and customer service. I purchased frames and lenses on 4/16/24. 4 months later, I noticed that the edge of the lenses looked like there were small white dots that within days grew into bigger cracks along the edge. After the manager at Visionworks examined the lenses, she said it was not my fault and they would send them back to the lab to have the lenses replaced. The manager mentioned that the lab messed up and something was done incorrectly when they cut and shaped the lenses. The lenses were OK for another 4 months until they started cracking again on the edges. Visionworks replaced them a 2nd time at the end of August. On 4/18/2025, almost a year after I received the glasses, the cracking started again in the corner of the left lens as shown in the picture below. Clearly, Visionworks has issues with either the quality or extremely poor technicians who keep repeating the same mistakes. When I went into this Visionworks location, the "optician" looked at the lenses and said he had no idea why they keep doing this. It could be alcohol or what was used to clean the lenses. I stated that this has happened 3 times with these lenses and frames and I have never had any problems with any other glasses doing this in 40+ years since I have been wearing glasses. I have been cleaning the lenses with the cleaning products I purchased at Visionworks. The more I talked to this joke of an optician, the more I realized how useless he really was. They should not let him even speak to customers. He quickly escalated the situation by looking up my information, then saying he could not do anything since I purchased the glasses a year ago. I asked him why he would not do anything if the glasses/frames are clearly defective or something has been repeatedly been done incorrectly in the lab. He had no answer and just smugly smirked, saying "sorry." I will never go back to Visionworks after this experience. If they cared about their customers at all, they would take corrective action with their labs and poor staff. The time and stress dealing with this horrible place is enough for me to tell everyone I know how bad they are. Just look at the other negative reviews regarding their lack of customer service. 04-21-2025 Response from customer service: We are truly sorry to hear about your recent experience with our Phoenix location. Our goal is to provide exceptional customer service and we are sorry this was not the experience we'd hope to provide. Unfortunately, Visionworks does not offer a warranty after one year from the date of purchase. Your feedback is important to us, We will be escalating your concerns and feedback to our leadership team to address this internally. Visionworks has once again failed tremendously at their goal, but they sure as hell succeeded in making me and other former customers hate this company even more.

    Very uncomfortable experience at this location. Staff was pushy and walked off with my phone. I will never go back there.

    We've been to many different Target Optical locations and I have to say, this one probably has been…read morethe BEST. We went there on a busy Saturday afternoon to exchange a pair of glasses. I was frustrated at first since my previous pair (completed at another Target Optical) did not feel right. Dylan, Kaylyn and Nikki provided excellent customer service and helped us with professional knowledge and great patience. They listened and understood our concerns and went over and beyond to achieve customer satisfaction. We appreciate their service a lot and this location definitely had a great team who truly cared for customers. I'll remember to take some photos when picking up my new pair of glasses.

    I've been coming here for years, mainly because I really like the doctor and I don't need to go to…read morethe eye doctor very often. Unfortunately, after multiple experiences, I will not be returning. The office management, communication, and attention to detail have been consistently terrible. The first time I got glasses here, I ordered them through the office and came back to pick them up when they were ready. As soon as I put them on, the prescription felt extremely strong and wrong. I mentioned it to the front desk and was told that because it was my first time wearing glasses, I just needed time to adjust. I had somewhere to be, so I left and tried to give them a chance. After a full day, it was obvious something was wrong. I went back and explained the problem, only to have an employee insist that they couldn't fix it because I "didn't get my prescription from them." This made absolutely no sense because this was the only eye doctor I had gone to, and I had literally picked up the glasses from their office two days earlier. After I finally convinced him to look into it further, they discovered that the prescription was significantly off. New lenses had to be ordered, which meant waiting another two weeks. My next eye exam went fine, so I continued coming here. At my most recent appointment, I was scheduled at 10 and needed to be somewhere at 11:30. I specifically asked the front desk about the timing and was told I would be fine. I didn't end up leaving until around 11:40. Then came another communication issue with my new lenses. My appointment was about a month ago, and I realized I had never heard anything about them being ready. I called twice with no answer and left a voicemail. I called again around 12:30 and finally got through. The employee checked and told me my lenses had been sitting there since the 15th. When I asked why I hadn't been notified, I was told they had sent a text. I checked my messages again--nothing. It turns out they texted my mom instead. I am over 18, do not live at home, made my own appointment, and received my appointment reminders on my own phone. I also specifically told the office when I left to text MY phone number when the lenses were ready. Somehow, they still contacted my mom instead. And now, the final straw. I picked up the lenses but didn't have my frames with me at the time. I took the lenses home and went to another Target Optical closer to my house to have them put into my frames. The employee there looked at them and told me, "Yeah, these aren't the right size." Seriously? After waiting a month, not being properly notified that my lenses were ready, and finally picking them up, THE LENSES DON'T EVEN FIT MY FRAMES. At this point, I genuinely do not understand how an optical office can mess up my glasses this many times. Between the incorrect prescription, poor recordkeeping, contacting the wrong person, failing to properly notify me, and now giving me lenses that aren't even the correct size for my frames, I've had enough. I really do like the doctor, which is the only reason I continued coming back after the earlier problems. But four separate issues involving something as basic and important as my glasses is unacceptable. I will not be returning, and based on my experiences, I would strongly suggest going somewhere else.
