    Friendly and attentive staff with nice eye exam office on the second floor. Doctor performed a thorough eye exam and I filled the prescription by selecting some frames from the showroom. Great experience!

    I loved that I was able to browse on my own without any pressure. And then when I needed assistance, the associates were readily available. Hunter helped me find the correct glasses width and also talked me through all the options of purchasing transition lenses versus prescription sunglasses and was super personable!

    Great service. Didn't know WP could do eye exams. They were able to look up my insurance coverage in-store and get me set-up quickly. At the end, I was in a rush and the salesperson finished up my order for me - which was fantastic. Super easy / convenient location / plus - I like WP glasses.

    Zed and Maya provided exceptional service during my eye appointment. They were both super knowledgeable, friendly, helpful and thorough in every way. Thank you Zed for coordinating my experience there and helping me decide on my frames! And Maya thank you for providing a thorough exam and testing my vision until we got the prescription accurate. It was a 10/10 appointment and greatly appreciate your help!

    I agreed on a price for an exam, glasses, and two boxes of contacts after discussing insurance with the sales person. I paid the price quoted to me by WP's employee. He appeared confused when ringing me up, and I even asked him if he was sure my insurance covered both contacts and frames. He assured me it did. Now, days later, they are telling me they've made a mistake, they've shipped the box of contacts for one eye, but if I want the frames and the second box of contacts, I need to pay them over $100 more. They weren't forthcoming with this-- they tried to gloss it over until I send several emails back and forth digging into what happened. Even if I just want to get the second box of contacts for the other eye, they want more money. Obviously, I am stuck with contacts since they've already shipped on box of contacts for one eye. I was told the total price I paid would cover two boxes of contacts, an exam, and frames. Four days later, WP is telling me the price I paid actually only covered the exam and one box of contacts. I understand mistakes happen, but it was their mistake. They haven't even attempted to make it right-- only asked me for more money. Their employee clearly wasn't trained well, and I feel very misled. I would be fine just cancelling the frames and receiving the second box of contacts, but I refuse to pay them more money for THEIR mistake. If I was more cynical, I would suspect all of this was common practice to trick their customers into bigger orders-- telling them they should order contacts and glasses since their insurance covers it anyway, then coming back and telling them they'll need to pay more to fulfil the order if they want to see out of both eyes. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE where they employ someone who specializes in insurance claims instead of some kid using an iPad. You get what you pay for...Warby Parker is cheap for a reason.
