      I paid for my glasses in full cash and the store called me several weeks later and told me they lost the glasses frames I picked out and I told them to cancel that part of the order. They said a refund check had been sent out to me on Sept 20th 2024 but I have never received the refund check. I paid in full cash and they kept my $1200. And did not send my refund or the glasses.

      Today I spoke with a woman from the corporate office and she says that she processed a refund to my debit card. I provided her with two debit card numbers, because the first card she says will only process $1000.00. The second card she says was processed for $298.00. I did check both cards and saw no evidence of the $1000 being refunded. On the second card there is a pending transaction for $298.00. The woman also sent me an email with what she says is the confirmation that both the transactions went thru on their end, but it could take up to 10 business days for it to show up on my card. So I'm still waiting.

      My husband daughter and I went in for an exam and to purchase glasses. We ended up each purchasing two pair and i, ***** M ***** am still unable to see correctly from afar. I have been in 4 times for adjustments and my lenses had to be redone because they were measured wrong. I am unable to see from far. I have been at this since April, and every day by 1:00 -2:00 pm what i have is a plitting headache. They continue to tweek and try to get it right but I am not a ginnea pig, i refuse to contiue with this. last month i picked up the last pair that they said should be ok, i ws told to give it a couple of days and email them if they should proceed with the presciption for the second pair. I have now emailed 5 time and i have not gotten an anser, i have leted 2 messages for **** which is the only person there thay trys to help bit i have realized its not the staff. i have been wearing bifocals for over 15 years and never have I had to "get used" or suffer from horrible headaches until someone gets it right. the frames i picked i have had to put in 3 srews already because they are horrible quality. At this point i am out of pocket for the entire amoutn that ws paid both by myself as well as thru my insurance. at this point I am requesting a full like a refund of all the money that was paid by my insurance as well as my out of pocket expense, i dont want to try this again with Stanton Optical, the fact that the staff just continues to push new lenses and pop them into a horribly manufactured frame, not caring that it is causing horrific headaches is horrible. if this is not resolved within the next ***** days i will have no choice as to seek legal advise as the longert this is prolonged the longer they at this optical are damaging my vision and causing me health issues. I ask for a full refund on the ENTIRE amount billed to VSP as well we paid out of pocket. pls mail to *******************************.

      We sincerely apologize for the challenges Ms. ***** has faced with her glasses and the inconvenience this ongoing issue has caused. Providing quality products and exceptional service is our priority, and we deeply regret that we have not met her expectations.
      We understand her frustration with the adjustments, prescription issues, and communication challenges. We will investigate the issue and get back to you as soon as possible. We thank you for your patience.

      Stanton Optical has already processed a full refund for the patient, including all payments up to the exam co-payment. Additionally, we are currently waiting for the reimbursement from the companys insurance for the patient, as this process was initiated on her behalf.
      We attempted to contact the patient via email, as she has not been responsive to phone calls. As a company, we strive to assist our patients to the best of our ability, including collaborating closely with our doctors. However, we recognize that there are situations where a patient may still feel dissatisfied due to personal or medical conditions, which we understand and respect.
      To address her concerns, we provided her with a full refund of her payment and the benefits offered by her insurance. Furthermore, as an additional gesture of goodwill, we allowed her to keep the glasses she received as compensation for any inconvenience caused.
      After multiple remakes and ultimately processing a full refund, we believe we have taken all reasonable steps to resolve the matter in a fair and accommodating manner.

      On 9/22/24 my glasses broke. It was a Sunday. My eyesight is very poor and after calling around to find places that could provide same-day service. I settled on Stanton optical in *********** ****. I called and they got me in. I arrived at my appointment and had what they called a hybrid exam which was completely new to me. After my exam was over and I picked out glasses and was then told I would not be able to get my glasses back same day due to the type of lense I would need. They will need to be ordered which can take up to 14 days to get them in. On the receipt was a ** code which I can scan after 24 hours to find out the status of my glasses. I waited about 72 hours before scanning the ** code which then I found out there was no order placed under my information. I called the store and was told first that my order was accidentally placed under someone else's name but not to worry they were in production and should be in soon. On day 14 I called for an update which then I was told my order was messed up because of a system update. I have been told several different reasons why My glasses have not come in and I'm unable to track them. Today is 10/14/24 And still no glasses! I called the week before last and spoke to ***** who said she was going to 'reorder my glasses in case something happened" ***** called me back later to let me know that she received a message that my glasses were in production and I should receive them very soon probably the following week. I still could not find any update information under my phone number so I called again One young lady took my information and called me back shortly after to let me know that she had just found out that my original order had an issue with the lens. Apparently it was broken during production but luckily the manager had placed the second order. So now I'm still waiting! I'm getting extremely frustrated it has now been 22 days!

      After Stanton optical contacted me to let me know my glasses were finally in. I went in to pick them up and I could not see out of the right lens whatsoever. It was extremely blurry. So they rescheduled me an eye appointment which I came back for the following day. I had a new eye exam and glasses were reordered based off of the second eye exam they called me that they were ready to be picked up about 8 days. I picked them up and the prescription was correct this time. I Will be going back to get my second pair of glasses that they are compensating me and I was refunded $50

      I went to Stanton optical Located at **************************************** on 8/12/2024. I needed a new pair of glasses they did not take my insurance so I paid out pocket $154 for two pairs of glasses. When I received them the prescription was inaccurate and I could not see properly. So I went back once on 08/23/24 for a retake eye exam and the prescription was similar to the last so I asked to see the optician and was scheduled to to see them again on 8/29/24. At the last appointment, I was met with dismay by customer service *** and technician ******* He was in disbelief I was back again for the same issue and wanted to turn me away. As he stated didnt you already do a retake. In the end the actual eye doctor got it right on the last visit without hesitation and I was to wait again for my new pairs of lenses. Shortly after I returned due to an email stating my glasses were ready on 09/17/24. I went to retrieve them and only received one pair so as of today 10/11/24 I do not have the second pair in which I paid for. But I did call on 10/1/24 and was told the second pair should be ready by 10/8/24 by ****** the technician. I went on 10/9/24 and was asked did you get an email? To which I ***lied I spoke with you and you said delivery was posted for 10/8/24. He looked at me in disbelief. At this point I watched another customer come in for the same exact reason. Her glasses were messed up twice and she patiently awaited the email just to get there and be told they were not available and to continue to wait. I then asked the manager how long am I to wait I came in August and it has surpassed 30 days to almost 60 days Ive waiting for glasses! In totality I want to ***ort this branch for bad business as I am not the only customer this has happened to and I feel as if they have gotten away with it for too long. I was highly dissatisfied with the wait times as this is the first time I waited over two weeks for glasses.

      On 10/10/24, I went to Stanton Optical aka Now Optics to have an eye exam and purchase 2 pair of glasses for the advertised price of $79. Upon making the appointment the day before on 10/9/24, I was informed that they have a on site lab and would be able to make my glasses the same day. No one informed me that they only do "virtual eye exams", meaning that there is not a physical optometrist performing exam in the room with you. They have a computer screen optometrist that is doing the eye exam. I have never heard of such an eye exam! How can this be an accurate reading? Upon completion, I was told that my eyes were very bad and that I needed all types of additional items such as vitamin, eye drops etc. I was also told that my insurance couldn't be used now due to my "vision reading". This was a total sham! I was then told that it would be 45 minutes before the glasses would be ready. I left to grab something to eat and before I could return, I was called and told that the glasses had to be sent off in order to be made. I then returned to the store and asked for the manager. The manager's name was ******. She said that she could not do anything about what happened and I immediately asked her for a full refund. She said that she couldn't and I then asked her for the phone number to corporate and she told me "you can ****** it"... This is so very unprofessional and unacceptable! I just want my full refund from this store and will never enter this facility again!

      I bought glasses from Stanton Optical on 05/04/2024 for around $500. At first they were great but I noticed on 10/01/2024 that the gold end of one of the pairs of glasses has begun CORRODING and giving me a severe rash behind my ears. I took the glasses into the store to ask for either an exchange to a different frame or a refund as I can obviously no longer wear them. I was told by the manager, ****, that there is a 30 day return window and since I hadnt brought it to them during that window then I could use the warranty and pay ANOTHER FORTY DOLLARS for them to take my lenses out and put them in new glasses with the exact same frames! If the corroding had happened within the first 30 days I absolutely would have brought them back then, but it has only been 4 months and now Im expected to pay $40 ON TOP OF THE ORIGINAL $400 for them to put my lens in the exact same frames to have to do it again in another 4 months?!? I absolutely refuse to give this company any more of my money when its their product thats DETERIORATING ON MY FACE!

      I am rejecting this response because: simply wearing the frames daily should not cause them to corrode. I took care to keep them in the best shape possible (ie didn’t wear them in water or put in hair products when wearing them) So the integrity of the frame depending of the conditions of use is invalid seeing as they were used exactly as intended. I now have to buy another pair of glasses because I refuse to move my lens to the same frames just for it to happen again and have to pay another $40 every three months. The metal on the glass should be able to withstand simple wearing conditions. 

      Sincerely,

      Courtney Monde

      I went to Stanton Optical on 9/20 after visiting my eye doctor for an updated prescription and purchased a new pair of glasses. I came back to Stanton 9/30 to pick them up, and somehow my prescription was egregiously wrong and the customer associates blatantly refused to give me a refund. The vision in the left lens looks like a fishbowl and gives me eyestrain. The eye doctor was not in store during both of my visits so I could not complain to the doctor directly. This is utterly unacceptable and I require an immediate refund.

      of before and you wont know until you go in the room for the exam and a lady comes on the screen. I dont think thats an efficient method to diagnose any type of eye diseases. Secondly the ladies at the front who assist you with glasses were rude. I told them several times I just wanted the exam and I would get glasses else where which they ridiculed me about. After debating for about 30 minutes I let them convince me to buy some outdated glasses. She told me the turn around time was a week. Its been almost two. When I called today to check on my order they said 30 days. I would have never proceeded with the order if I knew it was going to take them 30 days. 1/0 dont recommend. & I only gave it a 1 because the lady who assist you with before getting the exam on the microscope lens was very nice and outgoing. Update: 10/1/2024 I received a call/ voicemail apologizing about the inconvenience and that my glasses would be here Monday. Tuesday I go to pick them up and the ladies in the store said they were not sure why they told me that. The glasses are still in ***** at the distribution center. And I will receive a txt where they were ready. Im livid because now my time is wasted to pick up glasses that are not there. This is unacceptable and I will hold them accountable. I called the manager *************** day she already knew who I was and what i was calling about. You would think she would give me a call. She stated she did see they were supppsed to come Monday however.l they are still at the lab and she put in a ticket. No apologies or accountability was taken on her behalf whatsoever. She said at this time she could not issues a refund or do anything about it. This company is a joke and produces false advertisement on their site to get you in there. And their prices are not accurate
