Eye exam and optometrist on every corner screams quantity, not quality and this location is no different. The eye exam is $90 which is much more expensive than other places down the road, but the good reviews prior, convinced me to give them a chance. Well, my $700 top of the line prescription lenses came after over a month of waiting and I couldn’t see, what a surprise.\nI went to another place right away and it seems that my short vision is 1.5 not 1.0 which if you didn’t know is a very, very big difference. The young guy that did that sloppy test also couldn’t read my name so he got my name wrong on my note, but hey he was chatty so, whatever.\nI called the manager and asked for refund of this sloppy exam, but all I got was an apology and an offer to go back for a free re-examination. You already lost my trust, I am not coming back even if you pay me.\n\nPeople, make sure wherever you go, the doctor is experienced and ask them to be thorough, so you don’t have to waste 3 months like I did.","updateTime":"2025-01-02T23:59:49.571613Z"},{"reviewer":"Dean Pipes","starRating":"FIVE","comment":"I had a prescription from a different provider and didn’t like how my vision seemed.

The staff is always very friendly and answer all of my questions. They were also very accommodating when I made a mistake and showed up for my appointment a week early! After a house fire destroyed everything, including killing my 4 cats, I spent 3 weeks in the hospital recovering from carbon monoxide poisoning, and almost died. In my confusion upon waking up from being intubated, I accidentally thought my appointment was earlier than scheduled. Eleazar was great! He made sure the eye doctor could accommodate me in light of the tragedy. He got my glasses and contacts ordered to replace the ones I lost in the fire.
