    Yesterday was my first time at Pearle Vision at the Waterworks Mall. The staff and the Dr. were all so friendly and knowledgeable. They have a huge variety of glasses that would have taken me forever to pick something and Antonio helped me pick out 2 pair of glasses (he has a knack for it) that were not only gorgeous but within my price range. I had a very pleasant experience!!!

    Kathy from your Waterworks store was AMAZING! I had gone to America’s Best (never again) and they did a horrible eye exam and gave an inaccurate prescription. I had suffered with the glasses for a few months then couldn’t take it anymore and went into Pearl for another eye exam. When I told Kathy what happened she got on the phone with the store and had them correct this issue for me even tho I had went with another company. They corrected my glasses for free but I still liked the ones at Pearl so I came back in today and she remembered me. She went above and beyond to assist me with my new glasses. I’ll never go to a competitor again and that’s all thanks to Kathy so I hope she is acknowledged for her amazing customer service.

    Everyone at Pearle Vision - Waterworks in Pittsburgh was friendly and helpful. From the people out front to the optometrist, I couldn’t ask for any better folks. I was trying contacts after a 20 year hiatus, and had an issue. I returned that day and they fit me in right away. Top notch professional people and excellent customer service!
