So, Brill Eye Center…read more.. I was a customer off and on for a number of years. The off part was because I was unemployed for a bit and didn't have vision insurance, but when I was working this was my place. I liked that the clinic offered Saturday morning hours and thought the doctor did a thorough job performing his eye exams. Now, some of the tests he performed weren't covered by my insurance and I didn't know this until I went to pay, but for the most part those tests weren't super expensive and I thought they were good tests to have. So, what happened? One of the employees lost it, that's what happened. I called in to get a copy of my prescription because I used all of this year's insurance money on new frames and lenses, but I needed contact lenses. I normally bought them through the eye center however it was less expensive to go through an online retailer until my insurance year flipped and I could use those funds here. Apparently to get a copy of your prescription you need a contact lense prescription, not just a regular prescription and I had "declined" my option to get this test. I was never offered this test. I'd been a customer for years and never heard of this test. I had previously talked to the doctor about my contact lenses, but didn't know there was a separate test because it had never been offered. Anyway, while trying to figure out what the woman I was speaking with was talking about our conversation went to civil, to strained to her screaming at me over the phone. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. I did end up talking to Dr. Brill after this and while our conversation was mostly civil, I will maintain that I was never told about or offered a contact lense eye test and I also felt like I was being mocked a bit for wanting to get contact lenses at a less expensive option than this office. He also blamed the behavior of the woman I spoke with on her being a millenial, which honestly didn't sit well with me. I do think for the most part this is good office and Dr. Brill is a good doctor however I work really hard for my benefits and I am not going to spend my money at a place that treats me this way. If you're looking at this office, please do your research. Ask up front whether all of the tests are covered by your insurance and don't you dare let them disrespect you while you're doing it.

My only concern are some of the younger staff that help at the front desk are not as professional but many of them don't stick around for long. I would highly recommend going there. They have good frames for glasses but if you are on a budget maybe get the frames but get the lenses else where. If you are not as concerned for a budget or don't get your lenses changed as often I say splurge and just get it all done there.

Appointments are always pretty much on time and I'm usually in and out at a pretty decent rate. I've not gotten glasses from them but I do get my contacts through them.

Definitely recommend checking them out if you're in need of eye care.

I like how the staff treats me like a person…read more Yes, they try to sell things, but that's okay because that's what businesses do. They also take time to talk to me and explain why they recommend certain tests and how it reflects on my eyes.. They also discuss items and issues I might encounter going forward, since I'm not getting younger. There are a few optometrists out there. I'm happy to recommend MissionEyeCare.

Okay, I have to say that the Brookside Optical shops, of which there are three, are very pretty,…read morehave a wonderful selection of designer (expensive) frames, and very helpful staff. Many of the frames are hip and trendy, but you can also find a more conservative look there if you want. The young man at the Prairie Village location was knowledgeable and very nice, and I had a generally good experience there. My big beef about these shops is their design. The closest you can get to a big mirror is about six to eight feet because they are all behind the counters. I want to see myself in a big, well-lit mirror from a variety of distances and angles. They also have small mirrors on the counter tops, but that is really not that helpful because we don't view the world through a 9 x 12 inch oval. I am both near and far sighted, so I had a hard time getting a good view of myself in the big mirrors that were so far away. Maybe I'm the only one who thinks about eyeglass shopping this way, but it's something I've noticed recently. I've been obsessively shopping for new frames because I really want to change my look. I've been to dozens of shops in the KC metro and even Lawrence. I'm amazed at how many shops have small, poorly lit and/or inaccessible mirrors. If I'm going to spend $500 to $1200 on new lenses and frames that I will wear on my face every day, I sure as heck want to be able to see myself clearly before making a decision.

Your mileage may be different, but I will never let this office do another contact fitting/exam…read more When I called for an appointment I asked what the fees would be for a fitting. I was told it would be approximately $200 - $250 depending on my insurance. I was not impressed when I arrived nor during the exam. It seemed like I was back in the 70's. It's probably just me as I expect more for my money. Well, I was charged $143.00 for the contact fitting plus $19 for an Optomap minus a $31 discount. Okay, no one works for free, but when months later I get a bill for an addition $76.83 I have to question the viability of this office. My insurance was charged for a refraction procedure which I declined. You may have better experience, but Epic Vision Mission will not be my provider ever again.

I came back to discuss my disappointment and options for making them darker as initially described. The sales lady tried to sell me new glasses for $300 more dollars on top of the $400 already paid.

I originally had gone to my previous optometrists office however based on the price they quoted per pair $600 for lenses only it was clear based on the sales associates indifference they weren't really interested in my business. I removed their Yelp review because I could no longer stand behind the level of customer service. Enter Fairway Eye center. Some years ago I had done business with Fairway and remembered the excellent customer service. In fact the only reason I really switched was they didn't have the frames I wanted. I digress. So after getting a completely outrageous quote I called Fairway and asked for Tina. I was pleasantly surprised when I found out she was still there. I explained my dilemma and all I can say is that Fairway came to the rescue once again. The prices were completely reasonable and Fairway stands 100% behind their product and customer service. I won't be going to anyplace else again. The customer service can't be beat!

Seriously, if it's not written down it didn't happen. I called to check the status of my contact and was told "You're in a wait status" and that they should have already been received.

Before I left, I told them this and they just said, "you'll have to get used to it". I brought them back and asked for an alternative. They're terrible also. $400 for readers and I still can't see. The guy made them so big they slip off. I can't take off any more time off work to get these straight and apparently I don't have any other options. They didn't give a care to ensure my prescription was right or the fit. Wasted time and MONEY.

One time I went in with a new prescription and wanted new lenses in my old frames as well as a whole new frame/lens combination. I asked to have transition lenses in both frames. I guess I didn't know enough about transition lenses to realize that they darken on cloudy days as well as sunny days. After having them for a couple weeks, I was very frustrated and decided I wanted regular lenses in one pair, so I went back to Gerry and they changed exchanged the lenses at no extra cost to me.
