I had a very bad experience at this Pearle vision. The girl at the front desk is very rude very rude and it seemed like they had time to help anybody and I’ve called them back several times about my contacts and no one will answer the phone or not if I get up voice message, they will not return my call. I will never go there again.

From the moment I walked in, I was treated with patience and understanding. The doctor was fantastic, very energetic and easy to talk to. The tech was amazing helping me find new frames, as I am very picky. She never complained, not once. She also got me a FANTASTIC deal. I highly recommend, it's a pleasant experience!
