I ordered a replacement frame and…

I ordered a replacement frame and lenses for glasses I bought in 2025. I wanted the same frame and type of lenses for the replacement glasses--and an order was submitted and paid for. After a week or two, I received a text that my glasses were available for pickup. I went to the store, but the glasses were not there. Two days later I received another text the glasses were in. I went to the store, and the glasses were there--but the lenses were installed in a different color frame. Staff advised the replacement frame I wanted was not available--and set the lenses in another color of frame. While I did receive a 20% discount for the cost of the replacement lenses, I think it would have been better from a business/customer relationship to allow me the chance to pick another frame that was closer to the original--ideally at the original visit. Since I had gone a couple weeks without the glasses, I chose to just take the replacement frame as is--despite the color--and staff gave me a 20% discount. The staff at the store were good to work with.

GO SOMEWHERE ELSE

I had been having headaches and decided to see if I needed glasses. I had a virtual appointment that cut out 5 minutes into the virtual exam due to technical issues and I was told I needed to start from the beginning with a new person. They used the exact same exam material the second time and I came out with a prescription that was WILDY inaccurate. I put on the glasses and immediately noticed an issue but was told my eyes would take time to adjust to the prescription.

I later got an exam from a reputable in-person optometrist and came out with a prescription that is totally different than what Stanton gave and glasses that actually help me see.

What I have experienced is medical malpractice in my opinion and I plan to report the doctor that signed off on this prescription to DSPS WI. I ask that anyone else that has experienced a similar situation to this to do the same.

I would have left this alone if I came out of this bad experience only having lost $79, but with up-charge on the 2 pairs of glasses that were pushed, I walked out of there having paid over $400.
