I made a same day appointment with no problems. My exam went quick and smooth. I picked out some glasses they will be ready in 10 days. I needed the exam for my driver's license renewal. I appreciate the whole staff for making my experience smooth as silk. - May 1, 2026 by David L.Click to read more
