    Walked in to make some modifications to two pairs of progressives that I had prescribed and fitted in Maryland. The glasses I received were not working for me....at ALL as the prescription had been a little off and the type of progressive lenses was making me nauseous (I have vertigo and having to continuously move my head, rather than my eyes, was taking a toll on my equilibrium). Oseas greeted/welcomed us warmly and was beyond patient as I asked all of my questions to get clarity on why I had been struggling with my new glasses. He was the epitome of customer service, engaging with both my mother and daughter who had the (mis)fortune of being dragged along for the ride. Thank you, Sir Oseas...you have solidified my loyalty to the LensCrafters brand, generally, and to Siesta Key location, specifically! 👌🏾🤩

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.
