We had a bizarre and extremely unpleasant shopping experience here leading to this very long,…read moredetailed review. The short version is they refused to accept insurance even though they are in-network -- AFTER they confirmed our coverage, AFTER they pulled authorizations, AFTER we shopped, AFTER they rang us up with the insurance deduction. Very rude about it as well. My insurance company tried to intervene without success & Lunette never even responded after I filled out their own online customer service form. I will never return to this shop and I hope that no one else has such an awful experience at this chain. Lunette got me in the door as an in network VSP provider. But, I am not paying cash for something that I know, Lunette knows, and the insurance company knows is covered. If you don't like the contract reimbursement rate, please don't sign on to become an in-network VSP provider. Don't pretend that you can't take my insurance to get cash instead. Shame on Lunette. Full details ... I went in to look for sunglasses for my husband & daughter who do not need prescription glasses. Lunette is in network for VSP insurance & we have coverage which allows us to use our frame allowance for nonprescription blue light glasses or non prescription sunglasses (it's called LightCare and it's part of our regular VSP policy). A woman with glasses and short white blond hair (later found out named Jennifer) took my husband's and daughter's info from me and looked up our VSP insurance coverage on Lunette's computer system. She confirmed each of their benefit for non prescription sunglasses under our plan, as expected. I then called my husband & daughter to come join me from a nearby store to try on some pairs. They both shopped for about 15-20 minutes, picked out their sunglasses and left so I could pay and they could shop elsewhere. Jennifer seemed frosty to us while they shopped -- flat, no smiling -- but I didn't take this personally because anyone can have an off day. After they left, Jennifer once again confirmed that our selections were within our coverage and then she rang me up, deducting our insurance. I went to hand her my card to pay but asked about the balance -- it was slightly higher than expected. My questioning seemed to annoy her as it had to do with the taxes, co-pay, etc but said she needed to call her manager to find out. AND she said ... I don't even think we can take this insurance anyway. What? Yes, please call your manager because I'm certain this is covered and I'll call VSP. Jennifer went in the back, came out shortly and said my manager said we can't take your insurance! No apology. She was just rude, like she did not care at all that she wasted our time and would not take the insurance. In fact, she seemed smugly satisfied. I was in shock. AFTER confirming the coverage? AFTER ringing us up? AFTER pulling authorizations? AFTER actually deducting the insurance? I did not know what to say. They wanted me to pay fully out of pocket for something that was covered by my insurance?! No thank you. I was very confused and upset and just left the store. Meanwhile, I got through on my call to VSP. Heidi F. at VSP confirmed our coverage for these sunglass purchases ($200 allowance + 20% for anything additional) AND could see that Lunette had open authorizations. Heidi at VSP stepped in and called the store directly thinking it was just a simple mistake of not understanding how to complete the transaction. Nope -- not a mistake. She spoke to Jennifer, who did not budge. Heidi's hands were tied and she said we should absolutely shop elsewhere and use the insurance. She closed the Lunette authorizations and opened a VSP grievance. Again, shame on Lunette. So sketchy, dishonest, and under-handed. (Fortunately for us, after the Lunette debacle we ended up at Market Square Optical in Newburyport. It was a breath of fresh air. Adorable shop with a great selection of frames. We purchased the same 2 pairs of sunglasses and they happily accepted our insurance, nicely explaining the small out of pocket balance. They prove that an upscale eyewear boutique can also be friendly and professional, and treat customers with respect and kindness. Thank you Market Square Optical for saving the day, for valuing your customers and providing a lovely shopping experience.)

What an outstanding experience I had when I went to The Eye Place for the first time. My glasses…read morethat I've had for over 10 years snapped in half recently, right on the bridge. I need them desperately to see. Ordering glasses at most places would take days to come in. Teaches me a lesson not to have a back up pair around. So on a whim I found The Eye Place. First off, on Shelles The Eye Place website, I really liked what she had to say about herself, her background, and how she runs her business. As a person that has spent many years in sales, I believe in transparency and not being pushy with the customer. Shellee has those same values. Transparently speaking I just went in there to see if she had any ideas on how I could maybe fix them. She's quite lovely in person. She knows what she's talking about and treats you like your family. I felt like I had known her for years, the way that we talked. When I finally pulled out my glasses to show her what had happened, she didn't even miss a beat. She found a similar frame and popped out the lenses on my broken pair of glasses and put them in the new frames. The new frames are at a great price point. She made little adjustments on the glasses to ensure they fit my face properly. The transaction was smooth and seamless. I love my new glasses. Shellee has a wonderful selection of glasses to fit any face and designs to fit anyone's unique style. You can tell by the way Shellee interacts with you that she loves what she does and she ensures that her customers leave with a smile on their face and the perfect eyeglass frames. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful Optician that takes pride in their work and delivers high quality care.

I was skeptical to find a new doctor and establish a new relationship. When I made my first call to schedule an appointment, a kind lady, Lori, was there to assist every step from benefit coverages to limitations. Those are the bedside manners that I highly value. Today, I met Dr. McHale and I am thoroughly impressed. He's very down to earth, mild-mannered and explains in detail of all your eyes' health and needs. He directs you in the right path of correcting your vision. He's one of a kind. Typically when I think of most doctors who's been in their practice for a while, I have noticed a certain type of pompousness. This guy was none of that. It was a great experience and great first visit. I can't recommend his practice enough.

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!
