Framed Glenwood Eyecare was a great experience! Dr. Ralph Herold is great, explains all tests/procedures and extremely well informed. He exhibits a true interest, caring and knowledge. He was new to me, and my experience with him was wonderful. I have never worn glasses, just starting to have issues with my vision. The staff is also amazing and helpful....we had a fun time choosing my glasses. Highly recommend this great group.

This place is great! I had to change eye doctors as my previous one didn't ever listen when I said I couldn't see at night. Not only did Dr. Herald listen but he got to the root of the problem and now I have the right prescription. I was never pressured to buy anything and with my insurance it was just a $10 co-pay. I will be going back:)

I came here because they were close. Dr. Didn't ask about my eye condition like they always do. He's not very knowledgeable. I paid $2,600 for two pairs of bifocals with scratch resistant plus lens going dark in sunlight. After that Sticker shock, I paid it anyway since I need to see. He came out of back and asked how purchase went. I told him I just paid one month's salary for these glasses. He flinched and didn't reply. A reply of well, let's get you into a more affordable pair. No! Did not care I just forked out a Months salary. I'll Never go to this undereducated

Really wanted to go there because I can literally walk there and wanted to support a local business and not a chain. But the prices here are ridiculously expensive. While most doctors might offer a break (especially in this pandemic time) to people who have lost jobs and insurance, this place will not. Well I don't know if the doctor would not, but I know the staff says they wont. So guess we wont be going, recommending it or become customers. I know many people who live in the neighborhood who wanted to try this doc but who just cant because it's the highest priced eye exam I&apos

Dr. Herold is awesome! He is patient and takes time to answer any and all questions. He is great with kids (7+) and adults. His office has SUPER fancy and innovative equipment which makes your visit shorter. They have lots of selection for eye glasses and Kat is very knowledgeable what frames work best for your RX and your face. Go support Black doctor and Black Owned Business!!
Ps- try Intown Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine and Southern Smiles Dentistry (all on same street) too if you love support Black Owned medical practices!

With few exceptions I find most of modern retail lacking. Minimum wage employees are well trained and decisions all seem to be made at some back office mid western corporate office. This is the case with most if not all chain stores.
So I was surprised in Atlanta when I needed an eyeglass repair to my prescription glasses.
The staff and proprietor were professional. They fixed my global. They were the only glasses repair place which fixed the glasses without an extensive discussion about them not being responsible if the frames got broken while they were working on them.
I sort of feel like

Dr. Herold and Kat are running a grade A operation over there. Kat hand picks all the frames and herself and she took more than enough time to help me pick something in my style. She also took the time to really breakdown prices and my insurance benefits. Dr. Herold is a fellow Howard grad, so I'm a little biased :) but he's super personable and communicative. As long as I live in Atlanta, I'll never go anywhere else.

I had a great experience here. Dr Herold took time to answer all of my questions and was incredibly knowledgeable. The gal at the front desk was also completely helpful! I was sent home with many lenses to try & they weren't at all pushy when i decided that i wasn't going to buy new glasses right away. I would say they are very affordable for the area as well.

I had an enjoyable experience today at Framed. It is a lovely locally owned shop that's there to serve the community. The location is pretty easy to get to, but parking can be a bit hard to locate. Once inside, the business is very fashionably designed with a nice seating area, attractive displays for the glasses available to try on and purchase, as well as complimentary water.
The actual exam room kept the same clean theme as the front waiting area. Dr. Herold was quite thorough and clearly explained every step of the examination. He even asked at the end if I had any questions for him and

Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Very professional. New equipment and state of the art testing. Lots of eyeglasses to choose from. I was glad to have my eyes checked here and get a spot on diagnosis. Parking could be a problem being it's in a busy part of town and getting more crowded by the minute. They do good work, very thorough and they explain what you're insurance will take care of and won't, so that there are no surprises.

This is the second year for my annual eye exam with Dr. Herold. He spent a good amount of time educating me on my eyesight and the changes I can expect in the next few years. He always talks about what is in my best interest and I doesn't try to sell me any extra services/products like other eyecare centers.
The receptionist is very patient and thorough in her explanation of the insurance benefits and services they provide. I wish they had more of a selection of eyeglasses, however they gave me my prescription and told me I could take it anywhere to get frames. Again, whatever is in my best

Highly informative and friendly annual eye checkup with Dr. Herold and they stock an impressive amount of fashionable frames.
I've been wearing glasses since I was six-years-old. I had surgery in my eyes when I was about seven-years-old; my mom insists to this day it was because I rubbed my eyes after I ate fried chicken and I got a piece of chicken fat stuck in my eye... Dr. Herold informed me it was probably due to a clogged tear duct. Thanks for clearing up a 25-year-old mystery for me!
Dr. Herold was very thorough and very informative. He let me know why dilation was essential and

After procrastinating about...uhhhh, I mean prioritizing at a moderately slow pace... getting my eyes examined, I decided to check out Framed Glenwood since it's in one of my favorite neighborhoods.
First of all, the interior decorating of this place is beautifully done. For a split second I thought I accidentally stepped into a furniture gallery when I initially walked through the door.
Next, Betty at the front desk immediately greeted me with a smile and she was pleasant and helpful the entire time.
Finally, Dr. Herold was nothing short of amazing! He was friendly, knowledgeable, patient

I had a really bad experience at my last eye doctor. My eyes have changed rapidly inside 4 months. Nothing makes you change eye doctors faster than backing your Porsche into a wall due to the wrong script and 6 week wait on average to get new scripts.
I was referred to Framed by a friend. I had my first appointment last week. They have done more, and provided better customer service inside 6 days than my last doctor did in 4 months. I walked out with trials meant to work for me, and the doctor had me wear the contacts for 30 minutes before testing my eyes again to see if they should work as my

Dr. Herold is great! Betty is awesome too.
I am extremely farsighted and have been in contacts and glasses since I was 13 months old. Framed opened up in my neighborhood so I decided to stop in since I needed a new eye doctor after leaving my last one.
Dr. Herold is very patient and kind and explains things very well. He listens to what is important to his patients and does his best to correct vision while keeping his patients happy. He tried me out in 2 new contacts after hearing me out about the price and clarity being both important. After trying dailies, he put me in a toric lens

Very nice shop. I went to get to my frames touched up since the lenses were popping out. They greeted me as soon as I walked in and asked if they could help me. Once I told them the issue they immediately took me back to fix my frames. They were done in 10 min. No charge, no solicitation to check out their goods.
I will definitely look at this shop for my next frames.
