$95 frames

Buy a pair of glasses from Warby Parker and they donate a number of glasses to nonprofit partners. Some proceeds also go to training people in struggling countries to give eye exams. Great concept and for about $95 per frame for single vision, it's not a bad deal. The frames here are modern with a number made of custom cellulose acetate and a few in metal. Sunglasses range in price. The location in the Abbot Kinney neighborhood of Venice has quite selection to choose from. Warby Parker started in Nor Cal with over a dozen stores and showrooms throughout the country. You can also order prescription frames thru their website. For those who want to look nerdy or smart, order non-prescription ones You can pick 5 frames from a selection and Warby Parker will ship demo frames for free. The frames here tend to run small. So, if you have a big head, too bad. Otherwise, worth checking out.

This is my second pair of Warby Parker Glasses but my first time at the Abbot Kinney store in Venice. I bought the Seymour in Sage and I could not be happier. Also I don't know how but their turnaround time got even shorter, I bought the glasses on Monday (not even a week ago) and they were delivered by Friday which to me is incredible. Awesome brand, awesome store will definitely return. The ONLY thing I have to say about this store is that parking sucks but that's Venice for you.

Really? They wouldn't replace my subscription sunglasses that has the coating peeling off just a couple months after the warranty date. They claimed it must have been caused by the way i handle them but theres no way. This kind of damage is clearly not cased by me scratching or mishandling them because the pattern of peeling is even across the lenses and consistent around all the perimeters. Its obvious that the coating is faulty. I havent handled them any differently than other numerous glasses ive owned that never peeled. I actually treat my glasses very well. This is the second pair of warbys that ive had a coating problem with- i guess i was lucky enough that the other issue cropped up within the warranty period and they replaced it. This one cropped up after and i guess you should expect a warby coating to last only about a year or 18 months before you have to spend another $400 to replace them. ridiculous.

Venice store Reference Desk before I walked in

Went to WP the first time to the showroom at the Standard Hotel in Downtown Los Angeles. I liked the idea and was super excited when they opened the store in Venice. Until I went there a few weeks ago. 2 people (girl & guy) with the WP shirt greeted me nicely- that was were the niceness ended. Absolutely no help in terms of what works for my face. So I found some frames on my own and decided to just write down the style names and to do the at-home try out. The salespeople weren't busy, they just had a nice chat with each other the entire time I was there. When I dared to ask the female sales clerk about a navy blue model that I had seen at the Standard she said they never had navy blue frames.... I asked if she could please check in her computer. The computer is behind the Reference Desk. Of course she could not find the pair I was asking about and told me to check online myself. When I asked if I could look at her computer screen she said harsh " You can't come back here"... I went back home slightly agitated that I drove to Venice and paid 12 dollar for 1 hour parking for that experience and no new glasses on top of it. So I went online for the at-home try out that I think is a clever idea....IF they have the frames you want to try in the program for the at home try out... I chose 5 frames, only 2 could be sent to me, because the other ones were either out of stock or not available for the home try out. I chatted with one of their reps online and was told that the navy frames that according to the Venice girl didn't exist could be ordered per phone. They had been discontinued- maybe sales girl should be told....so she can give accurate info to the customers. I ordered the pair, it arrived very quick. They didn't fit right, but LensCrafters fixed them for free, since I did not want to drive back to Venice and encounter the "friendly knowledgeable" sales staff once again. To sum it up, WP has cute frames and the concept is good, but this review is for the Venice store and if possible it would get no star at all from me.

I recently went to this optical place for an eye exam without insurance, and they told me I needed…read moreglasses, so I trusted their judgment and spent $600 on a pair. After waiting three long weeks for them to arrive, everything looked blurry and wrong the moment I put them on. When I returned to the store hoping for a refund, they flatly refused--no returns, no money back. Instead, they suggested I pay out of pocket for another exam as a "second opinion," with the vague promise they might help afterward. Frustrated but determined, I did exactly that with a different doctor, who confirmed I don't need any prescription at all. I sent them the new report as proof, expecting a full refund, but they still wouldn't budge. Their only concession was to let me turn the unnecessary glasses into sunglasses for a credit. With no other options left, I reluctantly took them up on that offer--only for it to drag on another three weeks with the glasses still not returned to me. It's obvious their initial exam was inaccurate, their staff refused to take responsibility, and corporate clearly doesn't care enough to make it right. I won't be going back, and I'd strongly advise anyone else to steer clear unless you're okay with the very real risk of being misled, overcharged, and left with no resolution.

The staff is always super friendly and helpful. Drs are wonderful!…read more They validate parking also. (:

I walked in with a particular frame in mind, which they didn't have in stock, but started to show me other frames that were comparable in style and look. Ended up finding a frame that was fit my face. The purchase process was smooth, as I still needed to get new prescription (they recommended an optometrist they work closely with) and the whole process took about 2.5-3 weeks (getting my eyes checked took longest). Would definitely recommend to friends, and also go back when I'm feeling the itch for new frames.

They have a good selection to browse through. They'll help to recommend what would be good based on your face shape and eyes. And they'll offer similar styles, etc. They're also really quick and knowledgeable. She pulled a bunch of different options for me to try. And they'll keep the glasses pristine. They'll even offer to clean your own glasses. Once you have your purchase, they'll help adjust the nose bridge and/or the ear area to help fit on your face better. This store is definitely on the more expensive side but you're paying for the quality and service.
