    The prescription had changed considerably for reading and I needed new glasses . I went from Woodgrove optical where I had an excellent eye exam from Dr. Singh- high recommend ! Obtained a quote on a high end Progressive lens from Amelia at Lens Crafters. After two days of researching various lens options came back to order the glasses. Ryan took my order, he was very professional, personable and efficient. I feel confident the right glasses have been ordered and that I will be extremely satisfied with them. LensCrafters was offering a very good discount on lenses and frames and the discount offered through BCAA turned out to be the best for me. I highly recommend LensCrafters at the Woodgrove Mall.

    Earlier today I had a small whoops at work and broke my glasses. When I entered the store, despite being busy with other customers, I was still greeted and told that they would be right with me. After explaining my plight to them, Amelia happily told me that she could easily fix them! A couple minutes later she popped out from the back with my glasses back to top shape! I was very happy with how helpful they were! If I could give six stars, I would! Thank you again!

Frequently Asked Questions About LensCrafters

How do I know if my child needs glasses?

Taking your child to an optometrist for an eye exam is the best way to learn if your child needs glasses. Many children who need glasses aren’t aware that they do. Signs of vision problems in children include sitting too close to the television, squinting, sensitivity to light, difficulty with eye-hand coordination, and avoiding visual activities like reading and drawing. To see if your child needs glasses, schedule your child’s eye exam today.

Is a contact lens exam different than an eye exam?

A normal, comprehensive eye exam will allow your optometrist to determine if your eyes are healthy enough to wear contact lenses. During your contact lens fitting, detailed measurements of your eyes will be taken to determine the right contact lenses for you. There is an additional fee for a contact lens fitting and evaluation for all contact lens patients (both new and established patients). Schedule your eye exam today to have all of your questions about contact lenses answered.
