I brought two pairs of eyeglass frames here for a routine adjustment…read more During the first visit, the staff member adjusting my glasses, Amanda, accidentally broke one of the frames. While accidents can happen, when I asked, she implied risk was minimal "unless you don't know what you're doing." After the incident, she then restated "there is always a risk for things to break." To her credit, Amanda made a genuine, constructive effort to resolve the issue by helping me find an alternative frame that could accommodate my existing lenses, which would need to be recut. If everything went fine from here, I would not have bothered with writing a review. The reason for this review is the follow-up encounter a few weeks later when I returned to pick up the new glasses and pay the remaining balance. I was met with a different staff member or owner this day to assist me. I asked if I could return for follow-up help if I experienced eye strain or optical issues from the recut lenses; her response was unexpectedly confrontational. Instead of addressing a standard customer concern, she took an aggressive, defensive stance, implying that any future issues were solely my responsibility and I should have thought about those future issues ahead. She diminished the situation by stating my original frame (which was only several months old) was "cheap" and already depreciated, stating word to word: "It is our job to help people. But we are not completely responsible for all the issues that happen while we do our job." Rather than engage in this argument, I completed the fitting as quickly as possible, paid for the replacement frame (she emphasized I was getting a very generous $30 discount for the inconvenience - I didn't argue or haggle). Then I just left politely as quickly as I can. After a day of using the glasses, I also realized one of the recut lense has a small chip at the rim. But at this point, I would rather not have any more encounter with this shop. I went to another shop who did the final fitting adjustment for the new frame for me after a trial for a day or so. Throughout this entire process--despite the broken frame, the weeks of delay, and the expense--not once did anyone offer a basic apology. Being treated with what essentially feels like hostility when asking a routine question about lens adaptation made an already frustrating situation far worse. If you are simply purchasing a new pair of glasses from scratch, your experience may be fine. However, how a business handles mistakes and communicates when things go wrong speaks volumes. Even though I won't return, I hope store does better job for future customers and more importantly, hope no one else has my experience.

If you are looking for generic, cookie-cutter frames, go elsewhere. But if you want a masterclass…read morein eyewear, go see Karen and Aimee. This may be the nicest frame shop I've ever been to What I appreciate most is their honesty. They recently saved me a significant amount of money by advising against anti-reflective coating after I mentioned my frustration with smudging.

Just one example: last year I needed lenses replaced fast on a backup pair of glasses before a trip. Assuming that Karen and Aimee would be too busy, I called a few well-known, branded stores and was practically laughed off the line. Karen and Aimee, on the other hand, didn't miss a beat. Without over-promising, they simply got the job done. I picked up my glasses two days before my trip and left town with an easy mind. On top of all this, they're both super-nice and interesting to talk with. I look forward to seeing them each time I go into the shop. To sum up: when it comes to glasses, I can't imagine going anywhere else.

She examined both of my eyes closely based on my comments and diagnosed the issue pretty quickly. I am so thankful that she gave my poor painful eye the attention it needed.

Took her about 5 minutes to do a beautiful job of replacing the nose piece. Had me try my glasses on to make sure it sat well. She was also very friendly, and told me she waived the fee.

When I was referred to Dr. Fleming during an eye emergency, she took me in the same day and performed a thorough exam to determine the issue. Thanks to her prescribed treatment, I felt relief almost instantly. I truly appreciate how she communicated with me throughout my recovery to ensure I was healing properly. Because she is so detailed and invested in her patients' well-being, she was able to discover other contributing factors to my eye health. She immediately became my primary optometrist, and I have since brought my family to her practice as well. I also want to highlight her staff, Jentry and Julie. They are incredibly kind, and their organization and communication skills are outstanding. The ability to reach the office via text or phone with immediate responses is the best! Furthermore, the online portal is user-friendly and makes completing forms seamless. I always feel welcomed in the office. Oh!! And the selection of eyewear is exquisite. So many niche brands that you just want to buy them all! And, because of her expertise in skin care and services provided in-office? Not only are my eyes better, but so is my skin!! Thank you again for everything you do!!

Dr. Flemming and everyone in the office are always helpful. When I almost gave up on treatments (it does take a number of treatments) she would encourage me that the program will help. She is right.
