    I have been coming here for ages and not just because of the convenience of being able to make appointments for Sundays. The eye doctors here are all thorough and knowledgeable and committed to their patients, but what sets this office apart from other locations is the kind, efficient staff. Everyone goes out of their way to make the experience pleasant, comfortable, and easy. Heather is always tremendously helpful; Kevin is so friendly and fun and gives great, sensible advice (turns out he’s always been right!); and I count on Jean to choose the perfect frames for me because she has impeccable taste and knows what I like and what will work with my prescription and my face. I enjoy my visits and am always happy with the results. The follow-up and reminders are perfect, too.

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.
