they were kind and professional when I went in for testing, but I am on ODSP and my worker needed them to indicate on the Rx that my eyesight has changed significantly enough to warrant new glasses and they did not, so now I am left paying out of pocket because they couldn't follow a simple request.
if you're on benefits beware, you're not a valued customer.

Worst experience. The person who took my original order screwed up the computer. Was asking others how to use the system…It was made clear all pairs were the exact same lenses they maxed out my benefits despite the so called sale charging approximately 500. I could not see a single thing and store manager immediately blames the customer who stressed both the exact same lenses- i need them for all uses all of the time after all. No resolution because they were too busy blaming the customer instead of taking accountability. My biggest fear was getting a prescription i couldn’t see out of and they made my fear reality with no resolution. Worst experience.
