I recently went here for an eye exam since I was starting to feel some discomfort with computer screens. The process was smooth, and the exam confirmed I needed glasses. When it came time to go over insurance coverage and costs, Milly was fantastic. She was professional, knowledgeable, and patient in explaining my copays, benefits, and the timeline for my order. I ended up ordering glasses from the brand PAIR with two magnetic toppers. My only suggestion for improvement would be their text alert system. I kept getting messages that my order was “ready,” but in reality only the glasses had arrived, not the toppers. They did give me the option to pick up the glasses and return later for the toppers, but honestly, even though I live nearby, no one really wants to make two trips. Once the full order was ready, Emily helped me with pickup. She was quick, friendly, and even printed out a card so I could practice my reading with my progressive lenses, such a thoughtful touch that made the process easier. Overall, I had a very good experience here. The staff really knows their stuff, and while there’s a little room for improvement with communication, I left feeling well taken care of and confident in my new glasses.

Here I acquired not 1, 2 but 3 prescription lenses! Americas best are becoming harder and harder to located. This one’s right in the River dale area! Great amenities around places to shop and experience the Bronx. Come by.
The last time I went Remy was fantastic. This time she asked one of her co-workers to dial another branch and he acted like he was so busy and couldn't dial the Yonkers branch. They don't honor Retail Me Not discounts coupons...get this for their store which was advertised. I was offered a 10% discount for not taking the coupon. I thought that was kind of her to do but as another sales lady began to work with me I told her DONT FORGET THE 10% DISCOUNT YOUR Supervisor stated I can get and what happens.......she forgets to take the 10% off. For the forgetfulness I was given a chance to recieve something from the accessories section. I guess it wasn't my day to get glasses but got them anyway. They also didn't take my insurance David Vision thru Guardian. They don't take a lot. I think this will be my last time going there. The sale 2 for 95 wasn't bad but the salesperson I had didn't even acknowledge 2 for 69 on the website. Oh, I recieved free solution green kit for the 10% discount mistake. Thanks.
I stopped by and was in and out with my new frames in less than 20 minutes! The frames are nice, not expensive and Millie was amazing. Excellent and friendly service. Highly recommended.
Recent visit: I made an appointment and it was great service. As soon as I came in I was greeted and the wait was not long. I was in and out, glasses selection was nicer than where I’ve used my insurance at for years and checking out was easy. I’m considering paying outta pocket for my kids glasses
