Wait time was very long

Wait time was very long, getting my glasses was fast but the whole process took hours. The tech had to redo the worst part of the process over also.

Awesome first time experience!

From the moment I walked in the door to the moment I walked out. The people there were very helpful. I’ve never done a telemedicine visit before, and it being my first, I couldn’t ask for a more professional experience. Thank you!

The glasses I received

The glasses I received, which were two pair the prescription is totally wrong in one pair and the other pair the lenses were not good. Quality so I have to be back in in Anchorage and then they charge me more money to repair the glasses that were a poor quality so yeah, not very happy at all. They argued with me that the lenses in my new glasses were not the wrong prescription but they were so now I’m stuck with a pair of glasses with the wrong prescription.

I'll try elsewhere

I had to go back twice due to my payment, however, compared to the first visit - I got a higher quote on the second visit from the same girl and had to change my order. the girl gave me the option to have them mailed to me or to pick them up. I opted to have them mailed. I waited over two months expecting them to come in the mail, they never did. I called and they were waiting at the store. Then I tried them on and they are too strong. I spend 3x as much money as I would have paid elsewhere.

Service?

Glasses are fine. Working people were great with their service as pleasantries go. However, the one dude told me hes just here to do the work. Didnt go over paper work really and just showed me everything I had picked. The face time lady was hard to hear and understand. Maybe better mic or speakers? I probably wont come back. This was my second time and it feels like you just want money and not to help the customers get the best for what they need.
