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.

She answered all my questions and reviewed both my sun glasses and eye glasses, as I explained they were different prescriptions and I preferred the sun glasses for driving. She explained the differences and recommended progressives for dominant hand glasses to expand the progress area. I'm looking forward to them arriving!! Then I moved on to picking my glasses. I was a bit sticker shocked with all the high end brands, Burberry, Prada, Versace, etc. but in the end, I paid what I normally pay for glasses. They pre checked my insurance information so I knew what my coverage was going to be. In the end I pick a lovely pair of glasses. They should arrive mid next week. Karla was awesome!!! She was patient with me and made some great recommendations for glasses. She explained why I didn't like my current glasses, the bridge on nose is too wide (17), 15-16 work much better!! And she was right!! I was happy to have someone help who understood what I needed. I'm Soooo excited for the new glasses to arrive. Next time I'll get some sunglasses. I got an extra print out of my prescription, in case I want to buy them elsewhere, but I like their service and staff here.

I initially took my…read morescript to Costco to be filled, but after several weeks trying to 'get accustomed' to progressive trifocals, I could not function. 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.

They will smoothly have you sign things without letting you read it. They will force you to do the retina scan when it is optional. They will not explain your charges. They will try to max out your insurance coverage. They will tell you you have your prescription and receipt and not give them to you. My parents felt bullied and taken advantage of by slick sales tactics to rack up charges. They will gaslight you as well when you try to get things corrected. They would also rather someone come with older citizens of PA rather than have to treat them with respect to allow them independence.
