I have been wearing glasses since I was 7 years old, so that's 60+ years. (Yes, I am older, but I…read moream not a cranky old lady!) Thus, I have a lot of experience buying glasses. My husband needed glasses, so we were planning to buy him 2 pair: regular glasses and prescription sunglasses. This America's Best in Granite Run was the absolute WORST experience I've ever had buying glasses. We looked around for a while and picked out frames we liked and took them to a young woman who was sitting at a table messing around with some paperwork. (There was no one else in the store, either customer or employee.) She told us she was not the optician. I asked if we could see the optician and she responded that the optician was in a meeting in the back. I asked if she'd tell the optician we were there. We waited ten or fifteen minutes without any acknowledgement and then I said to my husband, this is insulting, let's go. So I told the young woman we were leaving, and she said "fine." As we approached the door, an older woman came out, looking angry and hostile. I asked her if she was the optician. She said yes, but she's in a meeting, what did we want? I said, we wanted two pairs of glasses, when is your meeting over? She said, I don't know. I said, well, it's pretty insulting to sit here for ten or fifteen minutes waiting. She replied, don't exaggerate, you've only been here for five minutes. I said, I am not exaggerating, and besides, who schedules a meeting in a retail establishment for the middle of the day?? (It was about 130pm.) She said, I do, I'm the general manager for all the stores in this area. My husband and I were pretty fed up, so I said, I don't see us getting glasses here, so we're leaving. She responded by waving her hand toward the door and said, OK, go. I said, whatever happened to the customer is always right? She said, it's not true, the customer is not right very often. We left and drove up Baltimore Pike to the Lenscrafters in Springfield, and the difference was like night and day. There were three employees on site, and they couldn't have been nicer. The atmosphere was friendly and welcoming. I can't comment on the prices because both my husband and I have complicated prescriptions and we wear our glasses all day, every day, so we don't complain too much. I figure if they come in between $500 and $800 per pair, that's OK. I had already bought new glasses at the optometrist I saw, but we ordered two pair for my husband at the Lenscrafters, for a total of about $1200. America's Best lost that sale solely due to the rudeness of their so-called manager. There are a lot of opticians in the Media/Granite Run/Springfield area. There's no reason to go to this store.

I have been a patient of Dr Steinbach's for nearly six years. Upon moving to the new office and…read moreDelaware Optical the service and efficiency has become non-existent. I am sure Dr Steinbach is still a fine doctor - but you can't get an appointment. I called as soon as I received a reminder card and was pushed out three months! The central reception service said "they were very busy because of back to school". Well, two weeks before the appt, I needed to reschedule - and was pushed out another two months. The women that I spoke with were rude and uncaring - very different from the previous office staff. Additionally, they don't run a cancellation list. Dr Steinbach is a fine optometrist, but certainly not worth waiting five months for a regular eye exam. As a long time customer, I find the changes in staff, process and service here disheartening. I will be changing doctors.

Costco agreed to remake the glasses and I tried again. I ended up going back to Dr. Bumsted's office because I thought my prescription was wrong, he checked the glasses against the script and then rechecked my eyes. All were good. He suggested that the term 'progressive trifocals' was as informative as saying 'I had fruit for lunch' (i.e. lots of different kinds) I ordered a pair from Dr. Bumsted. Yes it was 4X the price. But I put them on and I could see immediately - super close & far away - No 'get used to them time' - zero. I would add that the doc is very detailed & methodical and maybe quite introverted that may come off as unfriendly. However, he is kind and friendly, just not in a 'in your face' kind of way.

I really loath medical clinics, most of them (all that I had ever visited) were not that impressive. However, been to both locations of this consultants in Wilmington several times and have to say that the staff (including some doctors, nurses, clericals ...) are wonderful, very easy to talk to and absolutely kind. I can't say all the doctors are nice, but I was lucky to get a few (like Dr. Wohlhagen) who have great bedside manners, knowledgeable and treat you like you are actually a human being (LOL). I can understand how frustrating it could be to book an appointment with them. Guess when they are good, everyone will want to go there. Do imagine how scheduling an appointment could be tedious and boring. The staff can only book an appointment if there's a vacancy. I had witnessed how unreasonable and rude some of the patients were. In fact, you have to give credit to those staff at the front desk. They are patient and able to take all those "abuse". Maybe next time when you visit this clinic, try to smile and say "hi" to those staff at the front desk first and see how you are treated.
