Staff seemed knowledgeable and were very personable and professional. Didn't have my prescription in house so had to be ordered but came in much faster than I expected. Great job overall.

Chapman highway location is a great store. The staff are amazing. The staff went above and beyond to assist me. They took such care of me, that I will NOT go anywhere else for my eye care needs. They were very professional, kind and understanding. Even with my prescription as bad as my eyesight is, they had to order my glasses, which took a short time to get, they made sure I could see better before I left the store. Unbelievable service. My eyesight is so radical, the difference between my right eye and left eye is off the charts. They made me a pair of glasses that day, just so I could see better upon leaving. It took less than 30 minutes and I had a pair of glasses to help me see until my prescription came in. I highly recommend them to anyone who needs glasses.

I needed glasses the same day as I was traveling and lost my pair. They were very accommodating and took my prescription by fax and completed my order with glasses in hand in less than 30 minutes. They also had a good variety of frames to choose from. It was a great experience!

Hi Alicia, we're really sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet your expectations. We understand how frustrating it must have been to receive different information over the phone compared to your in-store visit, and we apologize for any confusion regarding the pricing and quantity of your contact lens order. This isn’t the level of service or professionalism we aim to provide. We’ll be escalating this internally to make sure it’s thoroughly reviewed. Thank you so much for sharing your feedback with us.
