Absolutely unacceptable quality and customer service.
I purchased frameless glasses from LensCrafters in October and treated them with extreme care. In under three months, the lens cracked exactly where the arm attaches — a textbook failure point that strongly indicates defective materials or poor workmanship.
LensCrafters reviewed photos and still refused to replace them, claiming the glasses were “out of warranty.” Let that sink in: a premium eyewear product fails in under 90 days and they wash their hands of it.
Their idea of “customer care” was to offer a $100 credit toward buying another pair from them. I declined. I will never shop at LensCrafters again.
This company does not stand behind its products, and Luxottica’s dominance of the eyewear market makes this behavior even more disturbing. Buyer beware — once they have your money, you are on your own.

A wide selection of frames to choose from and excellent customer service. I received my new glasses within a week, they fit perfectly, and I couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend!

Absolutely terrible experience at LensCrafters. I went in with two issues - blurry lenses on the bottom half and frames that were widening - and the guy helping me was one of the rudest, most arrogant employees I’ve ever dealt with. Instead of listening, he argued with me about everything, acted annoyed, smirked when I explained my vision problems, and tried to blame ME for their mistakes. He told me they “can’t keep ordering lenses” even though the lenses were clearly wrong, and then pushed me to buy new frames because he claimed my lenses somehow made the frames wider… complete nonsense. He even tried to tell me that I’m supposed to keep my head perfectly straight at all times and not look down when reading... which is ridiculous. Any time I pointed out something obvious, he had another excuse ready.
Zero professionalism, zero respect, zero willingness to help.
If this is how they treat customers who paid for premium glasses, I’m done with this place. Avoid this location unless you want to be argued with, dismissed, and blamed for THEIR mistakes.

This past weekend, I had a horrible customer service experience at the Lens Crafters’ store Dedham, MA when store rep Ada mishandled & broke the arm of a brand-new pair of frames, did a shoddy repair job with glue then told me to “never come back again”–one of my worst customer experiences ever.
I filled out a customer care form and just a day later got a call from Jennifer, who is the Assistant Manager at Lens Crafters store in the South Shore Plaza Mall in Braintree. She listened to my grievance with care & concern and apologized for the frustration and damage. While the model I wanted was not available at Lens Crafters’ Braintree, MA location, Jennifer invited me in to select a new comparable one at no cost. Jennifer warmly welcomed me at the store, assessed the damaged glasses and asked thoughtful questions to understand my preferences, and showed me several models that were a great fit for my tastes.
Because of a Cyber Monday sale that was running at Lens Crafters, I was able to not only get replacement frames but also a pair of sunglasses whose combined value were equal to the cost of the new frames I originally had. Jennifer is highly knowledgeable & personable and provided all-around amazing customer service. And the Braintree store is a newly renovated space that's beautiful with a vast array of frames & sunglasses to choose from. Me and my family will definitely be coming to Jennifer and her supportive team in Braintree for all of our eyeglass needs in the future. Thank you!
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.
What is the difference between an eye exam and a vision screening?
A comprehensive eye exam is administered by an optometrist and can detect not only vision problems but problems with eye health and general health as well. A vision screening is typically performed by a general medical practitioner such as a pediatrician or a nurse. While a vision screening can help identify vision issues, it can miss many important issues that a comprehensive eye exam can identify. This is why everyone is encouraged to get annual eye exams. Schedule your eye exam today!
Why should I get an eye exam?
An annual eye exam involves more than just updating your glasses or contact prescription. A comprehensive eye exam can also detect eye health issues as well as general health problems. Conditions such as diabetes and high blood pressure can be detected in early stages through an eye exam, and this can result in early treatment. Schedule your annual eye exam today.
What should I bring to my eye exam?
You should bring your vision insurance and medical insurance information to your eye exam. If you currently wear any prescription lenses, bring your eyeglasses, sunglasses, and contact lenses. You should also bring any and all questions you may have. Contact your optometrist if you have specific questions about any additional items you think you may need to bring to your eye exam.
