I am so grateful for this practice. Today, I was experiencing an emergency and Illianna P was so kind, empathetic and eager to help me. It is very rare to find a kind and caring person/employee such as Illiana. I look forward to returning to this practice and referring potential patients here.

The staff at the downtown location are AMAZING!!! I have always had excellent service. Lisa and Donna and Joshua have all helped me. I never know what I want exactly as far as my glasses selection and each time they have helped me step outside the box and get something I would never choose myself yet I love!!!Thanks for all you do!!!

This was the best experience ever! I couldnt go by to drop off my prescription, but Lisa helped get everything ready & checked so that when I had a break at work, all I had to do was pick out my frames. Donna took her time with me & I never felt rushed. The selection is great & when I finally decided on a pair the process was fast. My glasses were ready by noon the next day! I was very impressed & I am happy with my selection!! I will definitely being going back for a pair of prescription sunglasses.**The only thing that was a little bit of trouble was parking & of no fault of the staff. The nearest parking lot charges $15 for 2 hours minimum but if you look around there will be a few spots along the street side. Just a heads up. When I went to pick up my glasses, my BF just waited in the truck at the hotel drive up and that was not a problem, since we were in and out in less than 10 minutes. I still will be going back regardless of the parking, it is so hard to find such excellent service!!Thanks again Donna & Lisa :)

Great service, wonderful selection y quick turn around. The staff was very helpful assisting during the selection of my glasses. They went beyond their duties to ensure I left the place happy and comfortable with the selection made. The first pair was ready within a couple of days, and the second pair within a few more days. Great quality of both glasses, and I am very happy with my purchase. They also assisted me providing different quotes of all the glasses I liked before making my decision. Thank you much!

I have been going to this location for years and love it. The manager, Lisa H., is very knowledgeable and is great at helping you pic the right glasses. The optometrist at this location is wonderful too. Dr. Johnson has the easiest touch and listens to you. She has gotten me in right away when I have had strange things happen to my eyes making sure I didnt need to go to a specialist. Both ladies are GREAT with kids as well!

Lisa is awesome! Drove all way to downtown SA from Austin as she provided us with the best deal and best customer service. I had been in SA and just dropped into the store and saw that they had such a large selection and some of the newest frames. Lisa was able to help me choose the correct frame for my face. Cant wait to get my new glasses and sport my new look!

Review №10

This is not a reflection on this Texas location but rather the one in Dartmouth Massachusetts. The customer service from the general manager was unprofessional. He was not willing to work with me on setting up an earlier appointment for a contact lens fitting class, which they were scheduling out in late September and mandatory, all because he was short staffed! Her original eye appointment was end of July and he wanted us to wait almost 2 months before she could wear her contact lenses! It’s ludicrous that you would expect a 2 month wait for your eyewear! Buyer beware!

Came as a walk in for a specific brand, met the two most awesome ladies who worked here. They helped me find a frame that was unique and stylish for my face and style. Ended up walking out with a totally different look. Quick and easy. Can’t wait to see my new frames.

Donna, was absolutely awesome. She helped me pick the perfect pair of glasses and also helped me break out of my normal color palette I choose (which is always black) and pick something more in style. I received both pairs of glasses way faster than anticipated and they fit great. Thanks for all your help! .

It was my first time getting glasses so I looked like a lost sheep when I first came into the store. Luckily, Donna and Lisa were there to help guide me through it all! They were EXCELLENT! They helped me with my selection and the process to get them made was easy and seamless. They answered all of my questions and I walked out feeling at ease and confident! Thank you ladies for all of your assistance!

If I could put no stars I would. Over all my complete experience I have had with this company has been terrible. Glasses I purchased at the end of last year kept filling appart. Was told that they could do nothing because they are not insured. Eyeglass perscription was unable to be used at anyother website but visionworks. I went on the visionworks website and tried to place an order my card was charged but the website says my card was not accepted and the order was not placed. Called the customer care to explained that my card was charged but the order did not go through. They suggested I try with another form of payment and the first would fall off. So I tried again and the same thing happened. Now I have been charged twice for an order that the customer service agent says she cant authorize becasue she has no record of a charge even though both my accounts have been charged. I call once again to get some sort of resolution to the issue and was told just go in the store and purchase them and pay in the store. So basically they would like me to pay 3 times for one pair of glasses and the woman at the store says they dont have the glasses and the prices are not the same as the website. So I will end up paying more. Worst experience I have ever had and I am completely frustrsted and dont ever want to do business with them again.

I have been a long time customer at the Reno Nv. location. No longer will I ever give my business to them. Employee named Chris accused me of trying to steal a pair of glasses, when I received a pair of glasses I ordered in the mail (which took almost 3 months to receive), & then a week later they called me to pick up my glasses (which I guess they made another pair). So Chris handed the 2nd pair & said good bye, but I then pulled out the original pair which was mailed to me, & I told him about the mistake, in which he grabbed the 2nd pair out of my hand & basically accused me of trying to steal them . I guess being honest doesnt pay. I could of just walked out the door with the 2nd pair. Well since these glasses are only good for me, I asked him what they would do with them. He said they would throw the glass away & re-sell the frame. I asked what they would charge me for the 2nd pair, which he said he would sell them to me for half the price of the frame. I wanted to think about it & wear the new pair because they were a different type of lenses (progressive) which I never had before. So I called back in about a week & told them I would buy the 2nd pair. I went down to pick them up & paid the 1/2 price they quoted, & then noticed they removed the lenses & were only giving me the frames. Where as Chris accused me of trying to steal them & his manager Nikki did nothing about it. What great customer service (NOT). For them to remove the lenses which they were going to trash is the most ridicules thing I have ever heard. So who is the thief here.SincerelyTimothy BixbyReno Nv.

I love Lisa, she always finds me the best frames for my face. She is one of the few people I will let pick out my glasses. I have a really bad prescription and if I go anywhere else they tell me I can only get thick frames but Lisa makes it work without thick frames. She also so spirited that she makes picking out glasses fun

This location, hands down, has the friendliest and most helpful staff of all the store locations in Texas that I have visited! They are quick to greet you and immediately let you know if you will have a waiting period for assistance. I now live in the Dallas area but make the drive to San Antonio to visit Lisa and her staff when I need to purchase new eye wear!

Review №32

I am overdue for new glasses and I would never go anywhere else. Ever. Lisa knows the business, and she is such a smooth salesperson that you feel like you have visited with a friend as you walk out with cool glasses ( at a minimum two pair) that you might not have picked out yourself but that look amazing. I need new sunglasses so Lisa here I come. Of course, I also send my husband and two teenage sons so she keeps us all in style with colored frames.

Repeat customer over several years because of the excellent service that both Lisa and Donna give. I hate shopping for glasses because I never feel very confident about what works on my face, but they are both quick with good suggestions. I get lots of compliments and enjoy my eyewear. Highly, highly recommend this store and this team!

Easy!! Lisa was very helpful and HONEST! I meant more to her than a sell. She made sure I was happy with my look and she took her time with me. We managed to narrow it down to 3 pairs of glasses! I can not say how happy I am with our selection. She chatted with me as if we had known each other forever :) I have NEVER had such a great interaction with a retail store anywhere. The entire staff was friendly and the service is FAST!! They had my Frames and lens at the store and I was able to get same day pickup.

I was visiting San Antonio when I had a mishap with my glasses. I went into the Visionworks on Houston and was assisted by Lisa Hicks. She performed a quick repair on my glasses and literally saved my trip! She was professional, knowledgeable, courteous and had an infectious laugh and smile. VisionWorks youre lucky to have a manager like Lisa. In this era of terrible customer service, Lisa stood as a shining example of what it should be! Thanks Ms. Hicks - See you next time! :-)
