I couldn't use either pair of glasses…
I couldn't use either pair of glasses as the script was wrong. I ended up going to Costco and starting again with an eye exam that ended up doing another exam and getting other glasses.

Hello Edwy. We sincerely apologize for the delays and frustration surrounding your prescription sunglasses order. We understand how disappointing it is to be given multiple completion dates, receive a notification that your order was ready when it was not, and then face additional delays after already waiting longer than expected. We also regret the frustration caused by the refund process and understand how upsetting it can be to feel without both your glasses and your funds during that time. This is not representative of the level of service we strive to provide. We've escalated this internally for us to improve our process and ensure a better service in the future. We appreciate your feedback.
The bald guy
The bald guy , think he’s the manager is so weird. Tried to get me to upgrade my glasses and then I said no and then his energy changed and I felt so uncomfortable. I picked up one pair by this nice blonde lady And idk what happened but one of the pairs I got had messed up lenses so I came back then next day because I got a call it was ready and when I show up they said oh the blonde lady isn’t here so you can’t pick it up today and I was like so she has to be here ? And another girl said I should have came before 5 but I work so that wasn’t gonna work and regardless they are open till 7 then they looked at each other and ended up just giving it to me. Like why give me a hard time and the bald guy was there but didn’t greet me at all and he’s very weird . I’ve been here many times over the years and now I’m never coming back again the whole interaction was just uncomfortable.

Hello Jeff, Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re so happy to hear you love your glasses and that they’re the best fit and lenses you’ve had in years. We truly appreciate your support!
Lots of disappointing surprises
No one told me prior to entering it was a Telehealth appointment. Definitely prefer face to face with a Dr. not automation!
You don’t give out hard cases with the glasses. Why would I spend $200+ and not receive something to protect my purchase with? First eyeglass company that didn’t provide me with a hard case to protect my glasses.

Hello Christine, we’re sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet your expectations, especially regarding the lack of advance notice about your exam being conducted through telehealth instead of in person. We completely understand how important clear communication is, and we apologize for any confusion or inconvenience this may have caused. Please rest assured that all prescriptions are reviewed and signed by licensed doctors. Your feedback is very important to us, and we’ll be escalating this internally to ensure it’s thoroughly reviewed. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
