Some optical store's main purpose is to give used car salesmen the appearance of Credibility and integrity. Been walking around without glasses since I broke mine a week ago. For full disclosure I have Medicare and Medicaid and am on a fixed income plus Care Credit should I need some out of pocket expenses . I was told they accept all three. Great! I went in around 2 o'clock and waited patiently. My hmo is kicking in next month so I just was getting contacts to hold me over. The clerk, who became my vestige told me she will make sure I would walk out with glasses too. Great, she cares. Meanwhile, it was a few hours I was there and the next to last patient went in. My new beastie showed me some frames, I assumed they were low priced since I get a free pair from medicaid and they also have a special $69. Full Pair promo at the moment. The 2 pairs I picked came to $800 for both without lenses. Starting to lose trust in my new buddy. Guess I need to start dressing down and walking around looking despondent to match my finances. I told her that I won't be spending my monthly income on glasses today. Last patient went in. Goodie. Since it took 45 min to an hour for everyone prior to her I decided to walk down the block for a few mins to get some nourishment. When I returned I was told I was gone too long, the Dr. wouldn't wait any longer and to come back in 2 days. Thus was after spending the day waiting, being up sold and given hope that I would have contacts to last till I could get glasses. I've been to professional opticians and horrible opticians. Urban eyes are truly at the bottom of the barrel. I read the bad reviews on Google and here, let them know I'll judge for myself. My verdict: These Opticians were created to give Used Car Salesmen the appearance Credibility and Integrity. ...read more
