This is without a doubt the worst source for eye exams and eye prescriptions. I had an appointment for an eye exam. I was told my new glasses would be ready in 2 weeks. I was called to pick them up and when I tried to read the bottom 2 lines with the new glasses I couldn’t read the 2 bottom lines but I could with my old prescription. I was told to go home and try them out because it’s a new prescription and I would have to get used to them. Keep in mind I’ve worn glasses for over 50 years and have had many new prescriptions. Made another appointment at the same office with another doctor

Always feel like these guys care about my well being, instead of just making money on glasses or up charges. They've been great about sending our scripts anywhere we choose to buy glasses, without a single complaint.
Would have given 5 stars, but it can be difficult to order glasses at times. I've been told it's necessary to make an appointment to try on and order glasses, but I think that may have been a mistake (possibly just a new person unsure of their process).

Great service and caring staff. Have gotten all my glasses here and they do a wonderful job helping choose frames and keeping my eyes healthy! Great selection of frames and work easily with insurances.

Have been a patient of this group practice for years and have received nothing but the best care. Appointments are booked at convenient times and staff are as kind and caring as the doctors.
