“The entire experience was great from start to finish. The real tell will be when the glasses come in.”

“Everything about this visit was excellent. There were no wait times. The initial screening room was a pleasant experience. They test your eye pressure without the puff of air. The doctor listened to my vision concerns and spent longer than the lousy 3 mins of service I've received at previous centers conducting the exam. I didn't realize an exam could be so thorough until I came to this location. The associate that assisted me with picking out glasses was so kind and patient and made sure to discuss and suggest options that would offer improvements. I will definitely make this vision center my permanent location.”
