LensCrafters St. Vital are excellent. They did exactly what I asked for as a customer, and that’s a 10/10 — I always recommend them. Thanks, guys! I’m also really happy with my Oakley Meta.

My wife and I returned to LensCrafters to buy new glasses after our last purchases done at Costco. Found the LC store had more product selection and more knowledgeable staff. Mike, at the St. Vital Ctre location, helped us with frame selection, and offered detailed advice re pros and cons of each frame choice relating to our prescriptions. Within approximately 30-40 minutes we had placed our orders and left feeling quite satisified with our decisons.

I really enjoy Leaft & Craft, and the Polo Park location has been amazing every time. They always try to help with sales and options, and they really make you feel taken care of.
At the St. Vital location, the staff are polite, but I’ve noticed that when it comes to sales or customer requests, the answer is often “we can’t do that.” I’m sharing this respectfully, because I love the store and I hope to see the same helpful attitude in all locations. Polo Park has set a great standard!

My wife purchased prescription glasses and sunglasses approx 2 weeks ago and picked them up yesterday. We were originally assisted by the store manager Lori-Lee who worked very closely with us and quickly narrowed down the frames and other characteristics my wife was seeking. Mike the optometrist assisted us when we picked them up, adjusting them as necessary. Both employees were excellent to work with and very professional in all aspects. Great service, great price, great glasses. Because of these attributes we will be back the next time an update is necessary.
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.
