I have 20/20 vision with prescription distance glasses for driving at night. I went to Stanton for their eye exam and two for $79 deal. I was given preliminary tests and then taken to room where I was expecting an eye exam. After they had much difficulty adjusting the equipment, I saw that it was a VIRTUAL eye exam! A person appeared on a screen overhead and took me through a virtual eye exam. It was annoying and inaccurate. I was then asked to pick out frames. I met with a very lovely person who looked at my prescription and I was told to come back in an hour. My first concern was that the script contained a +250 for reading glasses! I don’t need reading glasses I can thread needles and can read the smallest print on any bottle. I should’ve known because when I came back to pick up the glasses they were weaker than my distance prescription from three years ago. I returned the next day and was told that to change the prescription, I would need to go through that ridiculous virtual eye exam again. No thanks!! I returned the glasses for a full refund. Do not waste your time! This is a perfect example of getting what you pay for. The whole thing took two hours.

Both times I came in here last year and this year have been nothing short of awesome. The employee, Crystal was very kind, caring, and helpful, making my experience way better than it needed to be. Very happy with the support here and will be back again! Thank you!
What a great place! I thought the service was outstanding. Jason greets you, gets you set up. Doctor Vogle was an amazing gentleman. Extremely detailed, informative and thoughtful. Kyle gets you going; glasses, measurements, billing, questions. Very easy to get along with and fast. The facility was well kept, clean. I'll tell you the selection, quality and prices were flat out WOW! No overpriced kill you in the wallet deals at Stanton. I'm very happy.
I brought my father in awhile ago and they had no doctor on site and couldn’t get a read on his one eye and just said sorry and we left with nothing they could do. How does an eye exam place let you make an appointment with no doctor on site? Very disappointing. He was hoping to be able to see. I would leave zero stars but it won’t let me.
Was able to get my glasses same day since I have a light script, only a 30min wait. They were packed and managed everything and everyone professionally. I can’t wait to go back and get more frames, sunglasses, and safety glasses for work. Referring everyone to them
