Sarah went out of her way to make sure I had a frame that fit for my smaller head and that I was going to get a deal that worked for me. Also made sure that I had the protection plan.

We came into the Lenscrafters Salem, OR location to purchase glasses. Our salesperson, Lethu was incredible! She helped us with every aspect of our purchase and even laughed at my jokes. Will 100% be returning.

A great experience for someone who has never needed prescription sunglasses before. I was greated promptly and showen what I asked for as well as several other options. The associate was cheerful and easy to deal with. I was shown both options during the lenses choices showing how Lenscrafter lenses may or may not be a better option. Associate was great to deal with and he was very clear on the pricing and how my insurance could help me this year and next year. I will be back, thanks for all the great information.

I flew into PDX today from Tennessee and then drove to Salem OR for a final project inspection. My glasses were bothering me and I realized I had lost one of the nose pieces. Found the nearest Lens Crafters and walked in and was immediately helped. Fixed my problems in under 5 mins. Was already a fan of my back home store. I’m now a customer for life!

Visiting from out of state, my son had an accident that broke his glasses. It was a minor issue (the string holding the lenses in his frameless glasses had snapped) but being away from home on his own for the first time, he was understandably upset and overwhelmed.
When he came into your store, your employees were absolutely amazing. They didn’t just fix his glasses - they helped calm his nerves and treated him with such genuine kindness and care. Within minutes, they had his glasses repaired and back in perfect condition, and he left feeling so relieved and grateful.
As a parent, knowing that there are still people out there who take the time to be compassionate and helpful means so much. Thank you for taking care of him, for your quick service, and for showing such warmth and hospitality to a young man far from home. You truly turned a stressful moment into a reassuring reminder of how wonderful people can be.
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.
