I can't see because they are uncomfortable and my focus is blurry. I took them back to pearle in rio grande. I was told that because I lifted the glasses off my face to see better I changed the prescription I need to get another eye exam which is scheduled after Christmas. I can't wait that long. I have been a customer for many years and I am extremely disappointed in the service.","updateTime":"2025-12-01T20:34:45.456524Z"},{"reviewer":"Mark Leonard","starRating":"FIVE","comment":"Great experience with Chris at Pearle Vision. He was very knowledgable, helpful and professional. At age 59 I had to purchase eyeglasses for the 1st time in my life. He explained options, assisted me in choosing frames and lenses, and we were done in 15 minutes. Seamless process.

Between Dr. Brian Kerper and Chris Hutton, you are dealing with THE BEST OF THE BEST! Starting with Dr. Brian, he is thorough, knowledgeable, and takes the time to explain everything clearly, ensuring I understand everything with my eye health. It is his professionalism and friendly demeanor that always puts me at ease and keeps me coming back year after year.\n\nAfter your excellent eye exam with Dr. Kerper, be sure to see Chris Hutton for your eyeglasses/sunglasses! I cannot speak more highly of him. Chris genuinely goes out of his way to help you find the perfect frames and ensure they fit comfortably. He's patient, he is kind, and he provides over and above exceptional customer service, always making me feel comfortable and stress free in the process of choosing new glasses.\n\nHaving been a patient for the past 19 years, I've truly built a wonderful friendship with both Dr. Brian and Chris, which speaks volumes about the personal care they provide.\n\nWhile Dr. Brian and Chris are my go-to's, the entire team at Pearl Vision, Rio Grande, is wonderful and should be recognized for all they are and all they do.\nIf you're looking for THE BEST OF THE BEST eye care and a great selection of eyewear with personalized service, this is definitely the place to go!","updateTime":"2025-07-18T19:10:49.956764Z"},{"reviewer":"Brian Smith","starRating":"FIVE","comment":"My son needed glasses because he lost them at the shore.
