    Seamless experience from making the appointment online to getting glasses. Everyone was super helpful and friendly, and compared to other options in the area, a much higher quality experience for exam and glasses.

    The Union Market location was great. The staff on 10/27 were amazing (I forgot their names). Very helpful and knowledgeable. I went in thinking I needed regular glasses and sunglasses but we talked over the options and went with the transition lenses. 30 day return/exchange made the decision simple. Would recommend .

    The care I received from Dr. Kim Bohling was truly exceptional—unlike anything I’ve experienced in more than 30 years of wearing glasses. She patiently explained what each exam was designed to detect and what to expect at every step to ensure the best possible outcome. No other doctor has ever taken the time to answer my questions with such patience, candor, kindness, and scientific clarity.

    I had scratched my lenses and paid to have the lens replaced. It was shipped to their factory and for two weeks the status said “building frames”. Well they had the original frames and new ones were not needed. So I canceled the order and asked to have my glasses returned. Instead of returning them they destroyed them and offered a $50 discount to buy new ones. I will never purchase again from this firm. UPDATE: Corporate did, in fact, reach out to me and addressed the issue even going above and beyond to make things right. Tyler's actions were prompt and impressive. I'm back in the fold :).
