Been there done that, it sucked. The service was lack luster at best and the experience was low. I was not exactly satisfied however you get what you pay for I suppose.

i can tell you a fantastic eye doc to go to, but there is no price hookup. i cant really speak to his current frame selection either. he took care of a couple of bad / emergency issues for my mother.

we (family) always went there because they are close. we always say it’s rediculous we aren’t going back, but for some reason do :gotme:

but my most recent pair was the last straw. my oakley prescriptions went from $150 to $300+ at the checkout :wow:

plus you go in there and you wait forEVER. ugh
