They have great hours, not closing until 7 PM. The staff was very helpful and knowledgeable to help me choose features. I wanted on these safety glasses. They checked my insurance and I was able to get some coverage, even though I already got a pair of glasses this year! I didn't even think that was possible. These frames were a great price also! Exactly what I needed. AND they made them in 25 minutes! Said it would be an hour, which is still amazing.

This is the second time I’ve been here since 2024. 2026, I go in with my prescription from my previous visit (which are good for two years), present my insurance information. Within an hour, I walked out with two new pairs of glasses. Hands-down, Eyemart Express is the only place I go to for glasses
Thanks to everyone who took the time to write a review. The reviews helped me quickly make a decision to stop by Eyemart Express (Abbott location). I didn't have an appointment and it was a weekend. I was greeted immediately, given time to check out frames, and then had my order placed and was out the door in about 30 minutes. Probably would have been less but I was a first time customer so getting an account set-up and the insurance on file took a little bit. Other people were coming and going pretty quickly too from what I saw and getting advice on frames, cost savings, options, etc. My glasses were ready 18 minutes later (2 pairs). I had them tinted and it was a perfect match to my sports glasses. Great experience from start to finish.
My sales person was more than great. She had to deal with an old man like me. I live in Techno Poverty most of the time. As well as deal with the less than competent people at my eye doctor . She thought of things that I should have thought about. Eye Mart Express lived up to there name. I got my new glasses ( 4 pair) lickity-split. And the price was excellent. I talked to a couple about getting new glasses. They very surprised that such a place even existed. The service ,front counter, and the folks making the glasses. And the price. I needed 4 pair because I am prone to misplacing them. I hope 4 is enough !!
This is the go to spot for eyeglasses in Anchorage. They have a great selection of frames. They helped me find the perfect pair and 2 years later I still love my glasses. My daughter found her perfect pair as soon as she walked in and they were ready in a flash. I found my next frames in the ten minutes it took for hers to be made.
