Nice salesperson
Nice salesperson, nice eye exam technician and equipment is modern and state of the art. Glass frames are limited but for the price - it can’t be beat.

Worst customer service I've ever had
Worst customer service I've ever had, glasses took 16 days to receive. Didn't receive notification when they arrived. Had to call multiple times. When I showed up for my exam on time they let others go in front of me that were obviously late. I've used Stanton services for 6 years now and 5 out of 6 visits have been bad experiences down to them even getting me the wrong lenses. Asheville location is a joke

I waited forever at the office
I waited forever at the office. Then, was told my contacts would be mailed to me as I live a long distance away. It took multiple phone calls and eventually a trip to the office myself to get my contacts.
