Reviews
- maverick_falconSo I went in to get my eyes checked and honestly the whole process was super thorough — way more steps than I expected. They had a ton of equipment, and they even took a photo of the back of my eye which I'd literally never seen before. Kinda cool, kinda weird, but really interesting! The staff suggested I get blue light lenses since I'm on the computer all day, and wow what a difference, my eyes don't feel as tired anymore. They also walked me through how to take care of the glasses which was helpful. Everyone was super friendly, answered every single question I had, and even adjusted the frames on the spot when something felt off. The frame selection is huge — everything from budget-friendly options to the big designer names, so whatever your price range you'll probably find something. Overall a really solid experience, gonna definitely come back when I need another pair.
