Traveling on the road is rewarding but challenging. Many times the challenge comes down to "what…read morehappens when things don't go as planned". It's story time: Unbeknownst to me my glasses fell off the nightstand at the hotel during the night. This morning when I got out of bed I heard a CRUUUNCH and realized that I stepped on my glasses and they are bent and broken. You can imagine my panic. I took the broken frames and lens and went looking for an optometrist. The first place I ran to, that was recommended by the hotel front desk, was closed, (this is the third recommendation by the same front desk person that utterly SUCKED, but I digress), and I realized the lens is now missing! So I ran back to the hotel, found the lens (yes!) and looked for another spot. I found one on yelp (5 stars), close to the hotel, and ran there. In the meantime I called the other person working with me, to give her a heads up that I may miss the first meeting today trying to fix the problem. The lab was in this run down building, non-descript entrance, down the hall on a confusing second floor. I entered, still panicked, and showed them what happened. "Let me see what I can do" was the response (with a big disarming smile behind the mask). And with that I handed over my bent frames, lens and all. Long story short; we struck a conversation (he wants to retire in San Diego) and about 15 minutes later the frames were fixed "not perfect but that's the best I can do!" was what Yong, the optometrist said. I couldn't thank him enough! I really couldn't thank them enough for saving the day. I'm thinking of going back to buy a spare set of glasses to give them some of my business. If you're ever in downtown Boston and need good optometrist work please go to Wang Vision at 65 Harrison Ave, Unit 206, Boston. They'll take good care of you!

Sept: after three weeks .i received a call/voice message said I can pick up my glasses. My girlfriend was nearby so I told her to pick up for me. She Went there and the lady said no glasses. Next 2 week me and my girlfriend was near Chinatown. We both went up to the doctor and still didn't have my glasses. I know it was my fault not to call first but come on after 2 week. Total time of 2 months lol. Finally Next few day they call led me and left message . Of course I'm call and confirm ask them stupid question if the glasses are physical holding in their hand. Otherwise I would not go there. Took me 2 months and 3 visit to get my glasses lol . I know maybe this was an odd day.

If you happen to make an appointment, you had better call ahead and see if anyone is there. I made…read morean appointment using the on-line system, received several reminders and was thinking how cool the on-line system worked! But, when I arrived at the office and it was closed, I was less impressed, When I called the office, they told me "Yes, we're closed because Dr. Zhu's house did not have power". It would have been nice if they had called or emailed me rather than confirming the appointment just 30 minutes before I arrived. After excusing myself from work to make this appointment and walking through a slushy city, I was not very happy with the fact that the place was closed. Update: I appreciate the response from Dr. Zhu. However, you said that 'we never confirmed the appointment'. The agreement that you have with your booking company (ZocDoc) says that all appointments available on the on-line system are available (they called me to explain this). And here is the text that I received on my phone confirming the appointment: 'ZocDoc appt reminder: 3:30 PM Today Dr. Xinsheng Zhu 65 Harrison Aven, Suite 403, Boston (617) 426-1726' To me, this looks an awful lot like a confirmation.

Dr. Curtis recently moved over to MyEyeDr on Broad Street and I went to see him there. I love the…read morenew location. Dr. Curtis was great as always and the staff at the new place was just as wonderful. I purchased a pair of eyeglasses after the appointment which was the first time I did that in a long time (thanks Liz!). I usually just get my eye exam and contacts fitting at one place and purchase my glasses elsewhere (due to a lack of options I like) and order lenses online (cheaper). I also tried Warby Parker for a few years. However, Dr. Curtis' new location has a great selection of glasses. I got a pair of Tom Ford eyeglasses and when I came back to have the glasses fitted I ended up buying a pair of prescription sunnies (my first time buying prescription sunnies!). I was initially going to purchase my own sunnies from Bloomies and have the lenses replaced with prescription lenses but the Broad Street store had such a great selection that I ended up picking a pair of sunnies from there (thanks Liz!). The staff was patient and helpful in helping me figure out what was best for me. They were not pushy and were wonderful! I'm happy with my purchases and grateful for the wonderful customer service.

I…read morehonestly do not know who is doing the hiring here- the whole place feels as though it is run by a group of lax children. My prescription ended up being dead wrong (a return process I need to now tackle), and the whole staff was HIGHLY manipulative. Other reviews are right- I found myself in a painful atmosphere almost like buying a used car, in a position where I was trying to politely fend off for HOURS the deskperson, who kept trying to up charge after up charge for frames that would "fit my face better". One old OD was too busy taking selfies with his patient(?), another younger one at one point just shrugged to my question and goes "I dunno". I'm not one to complain about demeanor, but I really mean it when I say this place has left me dumbfounded. When they're not trying to manipulate you into getting a $1000 pair of lenses, they're totally unaware to your even being there. This was just so awful and has left me with such a headache. Just go to the one in Brookline and save yourself.
