First time experiencing the vision center. Loved it! Dr Kunle Oluwadare was great. We enjoyed his presence and knowledge, friendly doctor. Nothing but awesome service. The office staff was nice too. Affordable frames and lenses. Friendly optician, Pam. We were confused with what our insurance cover and didn't know what to do with the style and shape of the frame to accommodate the comfort of our faces. We 100% will go back to them. No pushy sales, friendly and knowledgeable. Again...LOVED IT!

Lunch prices
Courtenay O.

Best prices for a hot dog & drink: $1.50. We stop here for lunch and gas whenever we are headed to TN or NC. Like lunch prices, gas prices are the best in the area - and for 30 miles around. The selection of merchandise and food is great. The store is clean, and the staff members are friendly. We usually pick up water for the road. The price can't be beat! The price on Charmin toilet paper is also great, and with Hurricanes looming in the Atlantic, this trip we picked up a 30 pack - to last to end of September. LOL. Since I mentioned toilet paper, the bathrooms are also clean and stocked!

Manager
Hany O.

I went in with my 9 year old niece while my 75 year old parents and 6 year old nephew were waiting in the car in the hot August Georgia sun outside. I had my sister's membership card and they let me in without any questions, I was only getting flowers to put on my sister's grave and that Costco location was unfortunately the closest to the cemetery. I stood in the long line for self check out and waited so long, and finally as it was my turn the worker asked to see the membership card then told me that the member herself had to be present. She was very rude, I tried to lower my voice and explain to her the situation without my niece hearing who is already emotional about her mother's passing. The employee then escalated by asking for the manager to come. At that point I asked my niece to step outside the store so she wouldn't suffer any more of that stress. The manager "Sonya" was somehow more rude than the other employee and didn't seem to care or even listen and just wanted me out pf the store. As if the $13.99 and $9.99 flowers were such a bargain that won't be found anywhere else without a member's card. As I was leaving another employee working at a random cash register for minimum wage loudly called me "a Clown" I honestly wish him the best and hope he faces the same situation I was in today. They probably didn't break any rules or regulations, but the lack of empathy in this place was astonishing to me, I'm sure Costco is not the place to look for empathy but I'm sure nothing would've happened if they just took my money and gave me the flowers. I'm sure they don't care that I will not step foot in another Costco as long as I live. I'm only sharing this because that manager "Sonya", mocked me when I said I will be sharing my experience in a review, I'm aware neither her or Costco will be affected by a review but my experience, and self respect still matters regardless. For a place that champions itself on shopping Wholesale for your family they really don't care about family or their members.

Our experience over several years has been inconsistent. Sometimes it's great, other times it's…read moresubpar. Lately we've experienced more of the latter and, as a result, will try a different provider next year. Eye exams have always been patient, thorough, and accurate. Last year, the Doctor became mildly irritated with my wife raising concerns about a box of problematic contacts affecting our daughter, as if the issue did not exist. We decided it may be a fluke and came back this year. This year, my son and I have had several problems with eyeglasses we ordered. I asked for Trivex and the best anti-reflective coat available, but we received polycarbonate, Cristal Rock AR on mine, and Cristal Easy Pro AR on my son's. However, my son's lenses have a blue hue in the reflection and Easy Pro should look green (see pic). Additionally, my invoice listed DuraVision Platinum, which would have a blue hue and green is clearly visible in the picture. We did not receive certificates of authenticity for Transitions or Crizal, which both companies say should've been included. It took just over 3 weeks to receive my glasses. Our insurance was blamed, but I would have gladly paid full price and filed a claim directly with them. Instead, no updates were provided and, once I inquired 10 days later, they ordered them after seemingly forgetting. I asked at that time to cancel my order, but they refused. Since receiving the incorrect lenses, I asked to have them replaced, but they again refused.

I had an eyeglass emergency while at work. This location was close to my office and had good…read moreratings. I took my broken glasses in to see if they could repair - even though I was not a client. Jenny was super kind and helpful and got me sorted out. This happened on a Friday lunch time. I was in and out in a few minutes. Great atmosphere - great service! Highly recommend!

Then was called up about 5 min later and was told that my insurance doesn't cover my eye exam until next month. Why was this information not relayed to me prior to my appointment?! I wasted time coming in just to leave and come back next month. Fast forward to next month, I got a voicemail reminding me of my rescheduled appointment and was informed I will have a $10 copay. The exam itself went smoothly this time until I came out of my exam and was told I owed ~$149. Evidently, this practice requires retinal scans (+$49) for all eye exams. This requirement and fee was not disclosed to me prior to my appointment or during the appointment. Additionally, I was charged for contact lens fitting of $85 - both of which are not covered by insurance. Returned for a contact lens fitting. My appt was at 12pm. I arrived 11:57am and wasn't brought into a room until 12:23pm. No one came to update me on the long wait. Although this place can be convenient with all the technology for scans and such, the lack of communication is frustrating and the fact that I can't come here for a routine eye exam (that's covered by insurance) without paying at minimum an additional $49 for the retinal scan is ridiculous. Offer the free (insurance covered) alternative of dilating and evaluating,

The office is spotless, well organized, and there were no long wait times which is so rare these days. Dr. Krishan Bhima is phenomenal. He took the time to truly listen to my concerns, explained everything clearly, and got to the root of the issue with a solution that was tailored to me. His bedside manner is kind, calm, and never rushed. You can tell he genuinely cares about his patients and their long term eye health. With his extensive background and years of experience in the Atlanta area, I felt completely confident in his care. Chris Jones, the office manager, is also a true standout. Her years of optical experience show in the way she communicates and supports both the team and the patients. She is knowledgeable, honest, approachable, and goes above and beyond to help you navigate your options. You feel like more than just a number here. I highly recommend this practice to anyone in the Cumming or North Atlanta area. It is rare to find a team that combines professionalism, warmth, and real expertise but this office does exactly that. I will definitely be returning and referring others.

It's a virtual doctor, with a remote controlled lense machine. I called them before travelling almost an hour and got a price of $139 for progressives, BOGO. I know that they charge extra for things like the blue light filter, polycarbonate lenses and so on. All total, with the extras I wanted, I was expecting up to $375, according to the prices on the phone. Well, things did not go as planned. Prices on frames are not marked and was told to just pick out 2 frames. Then when it came time to crunch numbers they tried giving me a price of over $700. When I said that would not work, they tried to " discount" it to $544, saying one of the frames was $200. I went out and discussed with my husband, came back and begrudgingly said that we would take latest deal they offered. So, as the guy is punching in all the "final" numbers, the price increased back to over $900. They talk so fast that they actually forgot what the offer was!! PLEASE DON'T GO HERE! I paid $79 for my prescription, walked out and went to Walmart, and paid $200 to get what I wanted. I saw the same frames that I saw at Stanton Opticians. They are a rip off con game. Do not go here if you value your pocketbook. UPDATE: I see that my post was replied to. I didn't have a complicated prescription- it was only +1.50 (right eye-O.D.) and +1.25 (left eye-O.S.) for reading with an ADD value of +1.50. It's not a complicated prescription and could actually just keep using readers. I just wanted bifocals so that I don't have to keep looking for my readers or removing them when navigating driving apps. Awfully convenient that they do not give the PD values as mono values- as most online retailers require. I will be calling to get mine on Monday! I have gone to the online stores- and put on ALL the EXTRAS (including photochromatic lenses) I wanted, and they still come out to around $100. There is no excuse for the dramatic difference in price from the prices for the extras I was told on the phone nor the changing prices back and forth. It is shady salesmanship and would love to see a news channel come and do an undercover investigation for the fast talking cheating swindlers that work there.
