Shopko Optical

I just love this whole place! It wouldn’t be shopko without the doctor, and his girls! The ladies are amazing to chat too, and the kindest souls you’ll meet. Dr Joel is the best! He doesn’t come off strong like a doctor title but a friend you have in your corner. I will forever go to this place and my family because of him and his character to adults and Kids!!! He is the best!! His staff, and him make the place a dream team. I would recommend because you will NOT be disappointed or disrespected at this place.

Had an eye exam at Shopko optical in fremont, ne. After getting progressive lenses & frame through them, The vision was still not clear. I went back to get the eye exam done again & acorrected prescription. Got the lenses re made. Well, somewhere in the process the lens for the right eye was nearly double the rx strength it should have been. It has taken a couple years & seeing an ophthalmologist in another state to find this out. I have a minimal prescription in that right eye (always have). The right eye has always been better vision than the left. Yet Shopko optical in fremont, ne had made the lenses for the left & right eyes the same prescription strength! No wonder I've been squinting & struggling to see! As I had mentioned, I had already gone back to the eye dr at that location to get things made right. Other than that, the staff came across friendly, helpful. Unfortunately eye glasses that are no help is a waste of money in my opinion. I replied to their comment, emailed them that same day (12-05-25) & again today, 12/09. Awaiting their reply. As stated in the review, I had been there for the eye exam, and again for a 2nd attempt exam since the lens prescription was not correct. That's 2 times & it still was not right. So, after moving (too far too drive there again) I was unable to keep going back after them already having "corrected" from their 1st attempt. How are they still putting the incorrect strength in a lens? I go once to an ophthalmologist & it was told the prescription that is in my frames. It has never been anywhere near that strength of correction in my right eye! I responded December 5, 2025, 1:53 PM (central time), and have yet to hear from back. . They told me to contact them, and still not heard back from them (today

Waited well over 3 weeks for glasses only for them to totally not fit right once I got them. Was told that different style of frame was needed, so one was suggested that I liked and everything was sent back to their lab. Approximately 2 weeks later, my glasses fit so much better but my vision was quite funkadelic with all of the prism. I tried them for a couple of weeks, but couldn't get use to them so they had to send them back again to have lenses made with less prism. Finally, love how things look and how the frames fit, BUT! I have to go to Shopko at least once a week because my lenses keep popping out of the frame. The lenses are too thick. Why would the lab ok the frames if that's the case? This is ridiculous! I'm going to be held responsible for the cost for different frames?! How am I suppose to know what my lenses are going to look like and then pick out a correct frame for them? I know nothing about Rx lenses and frames and the lenses aren't even made yet when they have you pick frames, without guidance mind you!

The associates here are so very friendly, cheerful, and helpful! They really help ease the frustration of choosing new glasses and they explain everything very well. Then there's the doctor! He has such a warm, calming, and comfortable vibe, he's very knowledgeable, and is very patient during the exam. I highly recommend Shopko Optical! Everyone there is just so great. 🙃 I can't wait to get my new glasses!

They are always friendly in person and on the phone. There is very short wait time from the time of arrival until the time you see the eye doctor. They are helpful with picking the right glasses. I was in and out in under 30 minutes! Love the quick visits and the friendliness of everyone you come in contact with.
