Optometrist (Dr. Tannis Rode) in Red Deer has been my go to Doctor for several years and, after a…read morebit of a search, I followed her from her previous employer today to her relatively new position on the team at Iris Optical. I have nothing but good to say about both Tannis and her new practice at Iris Optical in Timberlands, Red Deer. Her, the reception, and the techs at Iris impressed me with both their extremely thorough eye examinations and friendliness. Once my examination was complete, Valerie Cerkownlak (Manager) helped me pick out new glasses, and her suggestions and honesty in helping me choose frames for both regular prescription glasses and prescription sunglasses was invaluable. I take this opportunity to readily and highly recommend Dr. Rode and Iris Optical. Eric Sanford

I opted into the plan where you give them money to have your lenses replaced within a time frame. I…read moreguess I missed the timeframe and because of that, I could not receive new lenses or my money back. So, essentially, they just took my money without any service attached. So, theft. I understand that I am responsible for getting the lenses ordered, but why do they get to keep my money? The receptionist was very rude about it and just "Hid" behind "Policy". I guess it is their policy to keep your money without service.

Your experience could very well be much different than mine. Firstly, I believe they have the average fees one would find at most optometrists. Not sure about their frames though, as I only ever bought one pair there. I can't give them more than three stars though. The reasons? First off, I found their reception to be very hit and miss. I had several situations where I had to correct them on information that should have been correct in the first place. And when there was an issue with my vision that required that I go see a specialist, the one they wanted to send me to involved a three-month wait, with NO courtesy call to remind me. Three months is a long time in when I worked in an industry that involved schedule changes that couldn't be altered (due to circumstances I won't mention here). Also, I have astigmatisms in both eyes. The optometrist I saw there decided it wasn't bad enough for me to require toric lenses. So my vision has been less than perfect for the past 8 years. I went to a different place earlier this year, and they recommended toric lenses. I'm wearing them right now. MAN, it's nice to see this sharp again. Your vision should always be AS GOOD AS POSSIBLE.

She pumped me through in about 3 minutes and said "your prescription has changed" without thoroughly assessing my vision. Was treated like cattle I then went into their sales area. The lady who was trying to help me find glasses was rushed, made me feel like I was bothering her when I was asking for a certain colour and style and she proceeded to show me the wrong ones, then took me to the kids section, walked away in a huff telling me "I'll give you a few minutes" and never came back, never came to check on me. I will never return there, I will never recommend this place to anyone
