The eye exam was disappointing that the dr was online and I was not told before hand. When doing first time eye exam I didn’t understand that he was also saying “or the same” as an option.

I paid 79 dollars for 2 0airs of glasses I only got one. Don't advertise and let people believe they are hating both pairs. When you're going to rip them off and only give them one. Then it's not same day you wind up waiting a week or two

Check first
I went to Stanton optical because we've been getting glasses there in an hour or less, for years. So of course, that's what I was expecting the day that I went. After I picked out my 2 frames and paid $128, I was told to come back in 3-5 business days. I was taken aback because I wasn't expecting that. The young lady that helped me told me that they didn't have my prescription lenses in the store. I was slightly annoyed(but didn't show it)and asked if she could check with other stores and I would even be willing to go pick them up myself. I told her if I couldn't get my glasses that day, I would like a refund. I suggested that next time maybe she should check and see if they have the lenses first before taking the payment or at least ask the customer if they want their glasses that same day or if they don't mind waiting days for them. After asking in a chat, she eventually asked another young lady for help and she found some lenses, but they were blue light lenses or something. I told her if I had to pay extra for them, I'm not interested and would just like my money back. She said she wouldn't charge me extra since I had already paid. She told me I could come back in an hour for one pair of glasses, but I would still have to wait for the other pair. I was going to come back in an hour, then she told me they would be done in 15 minutes if i wanted to wait. So, I ended up with at least one pair that day, so that made my annoyance subside a little bit. Other than that, everyone was nice, friendly and knowledgeable.

Lied to from the start. Sale was salvaged
The first guy I spoke with was untruthful. He told me he needed my name, address, social security number, and bank account RTN and account number "in order to verify I have an account with Stanton." This information was incredibly invasive and it was actually to run my credit thru the leasing company. Had he been honest and upfront, I would have understood. I did buy glasses but dealt with a lady after that.

Hello Paul. We’re very sorry to hear about your experience and sincerely apologize for the concerns caused by the way your information was requested and communicated. We understand how uncomfortable and frustrating that must have been, especially if it was not clearly explained that it related to a financing or leasing application. We’re glad you were able to continue working with another team member, and we’ve escalated this situation for further review so we can address your concerns.
Overpriced, Expensive, Scam
Overpriced, and honestly upsold all materials from the scam concept of "2 for $80". This should include details of depending on the frame, and that no matter what, with the price of the prescription itself that it will never be close to $80.
