Don't go! Read reviews first!!
Very misleading, unhelpful, and dishonest regarding the best or most cost effective way to go in regards to their "deals" or insurance. Ended up paying $200.00 for frames and waiting 2 weeks for pickup, just to go back 2 days later because the frames are coming apart. They inform me that oh, thats normal wear and tear, I had only worn them for maybe 4 hours! They "tightened/reshaped" them for me and told me my head was just so small that I'd probably continue to have this issue. Then one woman mentions they can restyle me and get different frames, I decide to do that, of course I have another 2 weeks to wait for the new frames. Later that day the frames they "fixed" are now so uncomfortable and painful I can't wear them and again feel like they are about to fall apart. Staff is very unhelpful and don't have a clue what they're doing. I am going back tomorrow and requesting a full refund and will go somewhere else. Not to mention the exam with the Dr on a TV was ridiculous I have a feeling the prescription is incorrect can't confirm that at the moment but I do plan on getting another exam done. The Dr was very hard to understand because of his accent. Overall horrible experience! Don't make the same mistake I did, read the reviews first! I wish I had! UPDATE I went to Eyemart Express/ The Eye Pros on March 3 they did a much better exam and the prescriptions were way off!! I got my new glasses with the correct prescription, I can actually see now, and I got my new glasses in less than an hour!! I don't know how Stanton stays in business, do yourself a favor and stay away!
