Got my eye exam and prescriptions on Sept. 18, 2025. I preferred to use my favorite frames and all…read moreSerrins had to do was the lenses. Three weeks later when I received my glasses, they didn't fit my vision and Serrins had to re-do. Another three weeks passed and when I tried my eyeglasses, they still didn't fit my vision, in fact, the lenses got worse! Another 3 weeks went by and I finally called Serrins about my eyeglasses, to which the staff said that it was delivered to the wrong lab and that they're going to send it back to the correct lab. Frustrated, I decided to retrieve my frame back and go somewhere else where they know what they're doing! Overall, there were 2.5 months without my glasses! Unacceptable! (Granted, Serrins have some friendly staff in the office, I would NOT recommend them based on my personal experience.)

It took more than an hour for the appointment the eye exam being about 15 minutes. I spent 15 minutes in the waiting room and then spent another 25 minutes sitting at one of the exam stations because 3 people were waiting in the hall to be seen before going into the exam room. The place was clean, had modern equipment and the 6 staff I interacted with were all nice. I opted out of glasses which was difficult. I had to say no several times. I didn't feel like the doctor could hear what my concerns were. In comparison my husband went to Costco and paid cash for his exam (about half of my bill without insurance) and his appointment took 20 minutes and there was no pressure to buy glasses as the eye exam is a different department than glasses. We were also told we could take our prescription and order from an online retailer like eyebuydirect. I always try to support smaller local businesses but in this case I felt like the big store was a better experience.

Today, it was my second time going to the shop. Steve fixed my glasses and it wasn't an easy fix,…read morebut he did came up a method to fix it. Steve didn't charge me afterward, and I just felt bad, so I tipped him for a coffee. I'm really happy that I can wear my glasses like normally. Anyway, I'm so glad that I found this repair glasses shop and it's only place that I will go to if I ever need to get my glasses repair again. Last but not least, Steve is just an awesome guy, he actually care for customer's needs.

Dr. Gill didn't seem extraordinarily happy either, but she was especially pregnant when I saw her so maybe baby and the hot weather were getting to her. I panicked when I couldn't find my insurance card, but the front desk girl said I didn't even need it. Apparently she was able to look me up in the system? My HSA card worked easily and I was pleased with the overall experience. Healthy eyeballs they tell me. No pressure to buy more tests or frames or weird things. Would go back :)

She was very easy going and really nice. $99 dollars for a contacts and glasses eye exam.
