Deplorable Customer Service. I’ve been a customer at Eyeglass World, Noblesville Indiana, for several years and have been satisfied until today. I had my annual eye exam last week and ordered two sets of glasses – one with progressive lenses and another single vision to use while working at my computer. The OD’s prescription was wrong for my intended use as computer glasses; they were too strong. I had to make another appointment to be re-examined; no problems there, in fact the OD was very gracious.
The problem came with the General Manager, Joanna. I offered to keep the glasses that were too strong, since they were suitable for me as reading glasses, IF they would offer some discount as compensation for inconvenience for my time wasted coming back in for a re-exam and having the correct lenses put into an old set of frames that I brought into the store. There was not a lot of money involved to cut another pair of single vision lenses, but Joanna would have nothing to do with any discount or compensation, even though I was upset and had to waste my time to go back there again for their mistake. So, for a few dollars, an apathetic Manager and Eyeglass World lost a long time customer and gained a lot of bad publicity.

I have always had excellent customer service at Eyeglass World in Robinson Twp. Tami is always always welcoming to us. In this day and age her personality is surely needed. I will continue to go there for all my eyeglass needs.

It is an understatement to say that my experience with Eyeglass World was unpleasant/unprofessional. I made my initial appt as a new patient on 7/18/24. I got an eye exam and decided to get new lenses only for both my glasses and sunglasses. When the lenses came in, I tried them on and my glasses were blurry and I was seeing double out of my sunglasses. The lady that was helping me said that the axis was off on one of the lenses for my regular glasses. I don't exactly know what that means but she thought it was the reason for the blurriness. She said the technician cut them incorrectly. Why would she then proceed to give me these lenses??
She told me that the reason the sunglasses didn't work was because they were too big for me, even though I'd been wearing them for a few years already with my previous prescription. She told me they were going to remake both pairs lenses and she was going to have her supervisor call me when she got there that day. I asked if I could have my other lenses back to wear in the mean time since it would take 10 business days. She said they throw them away if we don't request to keep them. Thank God I had an old pair of glasses or I honestly don't know what I would have done. Of course I had terrible headaches from wear an old prescription.
So I got a call later that day from the supervisor and she proceeded to tell me that my sunglasses were broken and that I needed to pick out a new pair. That was very confusing because I had just tried them on and they were not broken by any means. She didn't have any explanation for this. She said I could come in a pick a new pair to get made and they would cover the price but that I could only pick frames under $99. This gives me about 2 or 3 choices in the sunglass section and a few regular frames that she said I could use. I had very nice designer name brand sunglasses that I definitely paid more than $99 for. I was beside myself at this point, feeling like I was in the twilight zone. So the newly made glasses come in first and they were just as blurry as they were before. They told me to just try and wear them for a day at least to see if I got used to them??
I was getting nauseous headaches after a few hours of wearing them. Also, the anti reflective coating I paid for was not even on these lenses and they were VERY thick. The sunglasses came in a few days later and they were still blurry. The trust in the ability of these people to produce a product that is acceptable at this point is completely gone. The manager happened to be there that day and she wanted to talk to me. I interpreted the way she was talking that she was embarrassed by the actions of her incompetent staff, even though she didn't come right out and say that. She said I needed to get another exam scheduled, and I'm guessing that's what should have happened in the beginning instead of reordering both lenses.
I scheduled the appt. It's now been a month since I began this journey. I get a call a few days later saying they have to cancel my appt due to an "emergency" so I rescheduled for yet another week later. When I finally had my recheck appt, the doctor was less than thrilled to see me. He was cold, didn't really care about the issues I was telling him about, and just generally unfriendly. He told me the first prescription was too strong. I was told by staff that they would redo one pair of lenses at a time.
I got my glasses in and they were fine. I gave them my sunglasses and those came in just yesterday on 9/4/24. So this ridiculous series of events lasted from July 17-Sept 4, leaving me wearing a very old prescription pair of glasses and having no sunglasses. Not to mention the 20 min. out of the way drive I had to make 8 different times to Eyeglass World. I suffered many days with terrible headaches. This is by far the most terrible experience in getting new glasses Ive ever had. It might be the most terrible customer service experience in general.

Can't believe there are more 1 star reviews than all other reviews combined. Went in for an exam and a pair of glasses. $683 later I was done (yeah, not $89 for two), and waiting for a week or more for them to come in (yeah, also not same day). But that's all fine. So I called the store #8354 in Phoenix AZ to follow up a week later to see when I may expect the glasses, just dialed the number from the appointment confirmation e-mail they sent prior. The associate told me I was calling the wrong store, and they are on 19th Avenue and not 1838 West Bell Rd. I should call the number on my receipt. So dug up my receipt, it showed 999-999-9999 (seriously) but the prescription pad showed the same number I just called. So I called back, got the same associate. She said hold on please, the manager was busy. Then I was on hold for 20+ minutes. I would leave zero stars if I could.

Two pairs for $78 turned into $450.00. On my fifth day waiting for glasses I needed immediately to drive with. They're just looking to sell the most expensive, felt more like I was being "Sold" instead of informed. Try another because everyone I've known that's used them did NOT get glasses same day. Same reason, specific lens they don't carry at the store lab. Come on???

I got the Heartland Henry's frames to pop my prescription lenses into. But they didn't fit right. My previous frames were the exact same brand and size that I received from my eye doctor. Not sure these are legit.

Absolutely terrible service! I go in and request reading contacts and they prescribe distance contacts without telling me. When contacting the management they want to charge me for an entire new exam and refuse to do anything to even fix their mistake. They just say "the old doctor is no longer here" and to wear reading glasses over their distance contacts. This has caused so many neck problem and over 500 dollars in contacts that are wrong are a complete waste of money.

Just left this place in Ocoee Florida. The service to a ** woman was extremely unprofessional. Zero for customer service. Make me wonder. This is my second time. First time they said they do not service my insurance plan. That was a lie. A group of lazy females. They all need to take a few classes in diversity and customer service. Horrible, horrible place. Very disappointing. I spoke to a gentleman on the phone who stated that they take my insurance He was extremely pleasant on the phone and very helpful but the female staff in person all need to be educated on customer service regardless of color, religion or age.

I got 2 pairs of glasses last yr around October at the Savannah, GA. store. 1st fit, couldn't see distance. 2nd fit, still the same. 3rd fit was better, but still bad. I needed glasses, so I just took them. Of course, I haven't used them because I can't. I moved from Savannah and couldn't return anyway after 90 days. I'm out $700+ and have useless glasses. So I gave them a shot....3×, and they are just bad. I'm still afraid to get new glasses anywhere. Eyeglass World will NEVER get my business again UNLESS they make this right. Maybe all they wanted was my $$. That's fine. Repeat business is where it's at. If they fix, I'll repost. But, I don't think they will. Pic of still new glasses below.

Went there to have a pair made for a bedridden person. Gave them the prescription. Said I needed a doctor signature. Why? Immediately left. Went home and order online thru another company. No doctor signature!!

I want to amend prior review. The glasses came in and they called. They offered to stay late if we needed them to and gave us some money back for the inconvenience of the long delivery time. They were very nice.
Original Review: April 12, 2024
I was unable to get the type lenses the Dr. suggested. After paying $700, I was promised it would be 7 to 10 days for them to be ready. We told them we were leaving Florida and had to have them in that time frame. It is now day 18 and still no glasses.

I had my eye exam which was good. I ordered contacts and the first set was supposed to be delivered on the 13th of last month and never made it. I ordered them again and the second set never came. Then trials were ordered and never made it. So I asked for a refund and I'm still waiting. SMH.

This is such a poorly managed store. I would behoove the powers to be to replace this guy. His wheelhouse seems NOT to be customer service, or helping staff....the staff is VERY unhappy working there, and it felt like they were very much trying to serve the customers. I have been in the business world for many years, and when most or all of the staff is miserable working with him: it is not a good sign. That means they are not being treated well.
And I have to say, the staff wants to give the customers good care, good service, and, when they have a question, he was no help at all. I was charged A LOT of money (well over 200.00), only to wait almost 2 weeks, and they were wrong prescription. They said it was MY fault that the eyeglasses did not fit, and that they needed 70.00+ more dollars! I paid and a few days later, I picked up the glasses, only to realize that they never made my glasses fit me. There was no "post eyeglass adjustment". But I was done. I aim to let everyone I know about this horrendous experience. You need to do something: this store is dying!

When I went to pick up my two glasses, another person's name and address was on the paperwork. I’ve been unable to read fine print with both sets of glasses. Called first, was told to come into the store. Came into the store and explain my concerns, was ganged up on by four ** workers in the store. Stephanie told me she was the manager when the store across town said she wasn’t. They told me there’s nothing wrong with my glasses. I repeated that I’m unable to read and they basically told me to leave their store. I have been read the glasses since Nursery school, and never had this happen before. I am in someone else’s prescription as indicated on the paperwork, they refuse to rebuild my glasses, even though I have Lynn’s prescription on both sets.
I would warn others to not deal with these ruffians. I was foolish to know as a ** woman that I would have any rights at Eyeglass World. I’m now stuck with over $700 worth of glasses that I cannot see through to Read and they don’t give a **! DO NOT Buy glasses here. They don’t care if you can see or not. Call the store across town, found out that the manager was actually not the manager from that store and then they begin to treat me in the same fashion. So basically you’ll get into trouble if you discover their errors and they will not be humane about it, if I can see anyone this type of treatment, I will be saving someone from what I endure, and the money I lost out on thinking this was an eyeglass shop.

I went to Eyeglass World store in Clearwater, FL on Monday 11/27/2023 and ordered one pair of eyeglasses. Rep assured they would be ready on Friday 12/01/2023. It is now 01/03/2024 and I still don't have the glasses. I am told they are on back order and they have no idea of when I will get them. This company has no customer service dept and as far as I am concerned they are nothing more than a scam operation. If you need glasses go somewhere else to a reputable company.

My eyeglasses' orders were corrected after various calls back and forth, to and from other company employees until Ms. ** saw that my glasses had not left the store as other employees had promised. She did not rush me but listened patiently to my questions then explained thoroughly why I did not need anti-glare rather due to my astigmatism, I would need the reflective tint instead. She should be a manager in this Lemon Grove, San Diego, Ca location. She is very young but indeed very professional.. Thank you ms. **!!

I am very grateful for having been able to have my glasses the same day to continue working. I have a medical condition that makes it impossible for me to work without them, and despite the fact that I was able to fill the prescription almost at the last moment of the afternoon, it was possible to have my glasses made the same day, thanks to Marcos at the Cape Coral store, Florida. Very professional and compassionate, he saw my need and helped me. The entire work team is very good but I want to highlight and thank Marcos in a very special way for his conduct, and for his help, without him today I would not be able to go to work. Thank you

I went to Eyeglass World because my glasses had broken. The left arm broke. I also needed an exam and new glasses, anyway. The staff were incredibly kind, knowledgeable and considerate. Tina worked in the eye exam area. Amy and Ryan work out front with fitting lenses. These people were super delightful! I am a massage therapist and I do not work for or have any affiliation with Eyeglass World except for being a very happy customer. I went in and left in a better mood.
The exam was 69 I believe and I bought the least expensive frames which were 88. I read in another review that someone felt duped because they were charged a lot more than the exam fee and frame fee. Well, honestly that is everywhere in the USA. Customers need to expect that things add up (high definition, scratch resistant, etc and so forth) especially if one has an astigmatism. Overall, an awesome experience. The optometrist was really gregarious, professional and funny. Thanks!

I purchased the 2 pair deal for $89 that really ended up being about $450 deal plus the cost of the exam. Not surprised, that's more the normal price. I've been wearing glasses for about 55 years now and the whole process was really normal and what I expected from past experiences. I paid for all the bells and whistles. The problem I have is that after about 6 months I noticed the lenses were very scratched up from normal wear. I went back and had them look at them and they agreed and replaces the lenses. I told them that I paid for all the extras and did not expect them to scratch so easily. They stated that they didn't charge me for scratch resistant lenses, and they don't offer that add on, which surprised me.
Anyway, here we are again 6-ish months later and the lenses are worse than before with normal cleanings that I have performed for the last several decades. My issue is obviously inferior lenses compared to all the several other lenses I've purchased in the past. The kicker here is that I worked in construction forever and past glasses took a beating. I'm retired now and these lenses are babied compared to all others I've owned. These are the worst lenses I've ever purchased.

Beware if they run your credit card and then they tell you that their system is down and that the transaction didn't go through because it DID, they did that to me, when I picked up the glasses I was told that I still owed the full amount because my first payment didn't go through because “Their system was down.” Check recent transaction on that credit card because IT DID GO THROUGH when they said it didn't, I have documentation to prove it and they won't refund me the first transaction, I call that stealing, Karen the office Manager told me to file it under fraudulent transaction because there was nothing she could do about it.

Eye exam on 11/9/21. Said new glasses will be ready by 11/23/21. Called - was told glasses not ready, but will be by 11/26/21. I advised her that new glasses are needed before 12/1/21. Old ones are just too scratched up. 11/27/21 and 11/29/21 Called again - told glasses not here, also told -have not had time to go through all the boxes of glasses yet. 11/30/21 called again and after being told, "Your glasses are not here, need to go through all the boxes of glasses," I asked to speak with supervisor. My glasses were found.
Arrived to get glasses. I was handed my glasses at the customer service counter. I tried them, told her I did not think the bifocal is okay. The line seems really low. She just sat there looking at me. I said it 2 more times. No reply by her, she just looked at me. She was obviously not going to refer me to someone who would fit my new glasses to my face or help with the bifocal line. I asked if I owed any more money, she said no. I said guess I will just live with it and I left. Every time I called I was left on hold 3-5 minutes. Very poor customer service, would NOT recommend or go back.

I needed to find a place that would be able to put new lenses in my frames, without sending my frames out for 2-3 weeks. Eyeglass World stated they could do this. Took my prescription in and they were extremely helpful. Able to order my lenses and my insurance covered almost the full price of the lenses, this has NEVER happened before. I will write another review when my lenses come in and I will see how they did in that regard. Will keep you all posted.

I felt compelled to write a review to praise the Clearwater EyeGlass World because of Lisa and Danielle. First of all I have been diagnosed with ‘Diabetic Retinopathy’. I have had my left eye operated on and get periodic shots in the right eye. I broke my progressives and they couldn’t be fixed. My retina specialist suggested I wait to invest in a new pair of glasses because my eyes are in transition. So I bought one pair so I could read and another for distance to save money. Frankly this solution was driving me crazy trying to keep up with taking them off and on.
I am a senior and on a fixed income and not being able to see well was enough stress. So I went to visit the Clearwater store. Lisa was so customer focused. She really tried to find the most reasonable solution for me. She took her time and was so kind. She then went to talk to Danielle and they gave me the glasses free of charge! I was so appreciative because my prescription is good till January, about four months from now. They have a lifelong customer. In this day and age where greed is the status quo I was pleasantly surprised.

Updated on 08/07/2021: This is the second part of my review. I received my glasses after 3 three weeks whereas I finally called them. They never called me to tell me my glasses were in. The first time I put them on my vision far away was blurry. They told me there could be a period of adjustment. After three days my headaches got worse and I started seeing double as if I was crossing my eyes. I returned them only to find out they didn't catch at my eye exam I needed prisms in them. My last 3 had them in it. Needless to say I returned them and wasted 4 weeks plus driving 1 hour each way only to not have new glasses. They offer to fix them with my optometrist prescription. Not gonna happen. Now I have to start all over again.
Original Review: I scheduled an appointment with Eyeglass world and they called me everyday for two weeks to remind me plus emails. I got my eyes checked and when I bought my glasses the amount came to $640. This is for two pairs but they said with one pair the price was the same. I waited three weeks for them to come in, (not the same day) as they state and finally called them to see if they had come in. They said, "Oh yea. Didn't anyone call you?" They have no problem calling you to make sure you come in for appt. I will update this review after picking them up. They charge for each lens separately. I will shop elsewhere.

Once again I was fitted with the perfect pair of frames. Heather (Hodges and Beach) is the reason I continue to buy my glasses from this location. She suggested some frames I would never have tried on but absolutely loved them when I did. She is friendly as well as knowledgeable. Her fashion sense is something I rely on when trying to find just the right pair. Over the years she has helped me pick out 6 different frames…each one better than the last.
