Norton Eye Care is an excellent place to go for eye exams and a large selection of glasses. The staff is friendly, and both doctors are pleasant and thorough with checking your eyes. Their prices are reasonable which helps when you do not have eye insurance. I will be moving this summer, but plan to keep going here even if it means a couple extra hours on the road. Thank you for excellent customer service to the staff of Norton Eye Care!

It’s always hit or miss here. The techs who take you back for the initial evaluation are usually nice, courteous, helpful…but the folks who work in the glass selection (one specifically) is just the worse. The last time I went in, I had a set of frames I liked and got online. The entire time, the woman dragged how they “were cheap” and how they carried some of the same frames “only because some folks can’t afford nice frames.” I guarantee I make more than even the doctor at the office, but it gave me a window into a disdain for less fortunate humans that left a sour taste in my mouth. The time before that (when I picked frames from the store), all it turned into was upselling. Get this frame, get this second frame, you need this upgrade and that upgrade…buy one, get this for 1/2. A doctor’s office should be a place where a PATIENT comes in for treatment and leaves with what they need — not upselling it, just because “it’s only glasses.” I know why (now) the other eye doc is impossible to get into for a visit (about 6 months). My guess is they run their business more professional.
I've been seeing Norton Eye for over 20 years and have always received exceptional care. I don't have vision coverage so price is important to me and thankfully their rates are very reasonable. I moved out of Farmington but still drive an hour each way for exams because I don't want to switch providers. They're great!
I previously had written a bad review for this place 3 years ago but would like to update. I recently obtained health insurance again which was extremely hard, but besides that after 3 years I called Norton Eyecare back to see what their wait time may be they still had me in their data base and considered me a patient in their office. Everywhere I called had a 6 month wait and I have been struggling with my eye sight and headaches for months, when I called to see when they could squeeze me in they offered a spot that someone canceled for the next day. When I arrived I was treated kindly and promptly like I never left, not to mention Mr Norton who did my eye exam and his Employees did a really great job were very fast and very professional. Years after my previous review I’m willing to admit this place is good at what they do, very professional, and good to their clientele. Appreciate everything about this visit, grade A+ to the staff, owner and business!
Today was my very first Eye exam. From the moment I walked in the front door of Norton Eye Care, the receptionists were welcoming and helpful. The tech was thorough with explanations of each step, DR. Watson was thorough and thoughtful. It was overall a very positive experience. I’m excited to get my new eye glasses and highly recommend Norton Eye Care.
