Comprehensive exams starting at $95
We recommend an annual exam to help evaluate your vision, examine your eye health, and screen for other health issues. Plus, it gives you an opportunity to ask an expert optometrist any eye-related questions.
A detailed image of the surface of your retina for the doctor to assess your eye health and check for conditions like macular degeneration, glaucoma, and retinal detachments (available at most locations for an additional $39)
Thankfully, no—we have newer methods for measuring intraocular pressure now.
It's best to have this information handy:
A list of any eye- or vision-related symptoms you're experiencing
An overview of your and your family's medical history
A list of medications you're taking (non-prescription medications included)
Your vision insurance information (if applicable)
Any questions you'd like to ask the eye doctor
You should also bring any corrective lenses you're currently using—glasses and contacts—and a pair of sunglasses to wear afterwards in case your eyes are dilated during your exam.
A comprehensive eye exam includes tests for visual acuity, refraction, and binocular vision, as well as a full ocular health assessment. A retinal exam may also be performed, sometimes requiring pupil dilation. Learn more about what to expect here.
We recommend getting an eye exam once a year to evaluate your vision, examine your eye health, and screen for other health issues. Other factors may influence how often you get an eye exam, including your age, whether you wear glasses or contacts, and if your medical history puts you at higher risk for eye diseases.
We're in-network with most major vision carriers, like UnitedHealthcare, Davis Vision, Superior Vision, and some VSP plans. For other plans, like EyeMed and Cigna, we often work as an out-of-network carrier. (Not all optometrists accept all insurance plans. We can only confirm your coverage details during your visit.)
Glasses and contacts prescriptions typically expire one to two years after the prescription was written. This time frame may vary depending on your state's regulations and the risk of your vision changing more quickly.

Great employees- very patient with me while I tried on about 50 frames! The store is modern and bright and spotless and the selection of frames is overwhelming- I also had an eye exam- painless and easy and fast!

Best customer service!! I’ve been to a few Warby Parker’s before moving to Colorado Springs but the team here is far superior. Sasha’s my girl, she was more invested than me in finding the right pair of glasses for myself. Then Jace, made sure I was walking out with the best prescription so he kindly made some adjustments and reordered my glasses. Last but not least, Shannon is another rockstar I had the pleasure of meeting and she sent me home with a few options so I could confidently say which prescription feels most accurate.
Seriously, thank you all so much! Not everyone cares about customers the way yall do and that deserves recognition. I’m very grateful to have an awesome team helping me.

Had a great experience at the Briargate location. Eye exam was thorough and no-hassle. I really appreciate the option to not have my eyes dilated for the optic nerve exam. Staff was helpful, friendly, knowledgeable and professional. I will be back next year for my annual eye exam and glasses!

I love Warby Parker! They have really affordable, good quality glasses. Everyone who’s helped me at the Briargate location has been so extremely kind and patient and always willing to help! The eye doctor was really sweet, funny, and did the exam quickly. Eye exams may be more expensive than other places, but for such excellent customer service, it’s 100% worth it! They even got me in same day for an eye appointment after running out of contacts and needing more ASAP. 10/10 recommend!

Jace was incredibly helpful! I needed a few adjustments to both my eyeglasses and sunglasses, and he was so patient, taking the time to make sure everything fit perfectly before I left. He never made me feel rushed and genuinely wanted to ensure I was happy with the results. His friendly attitude, professionalism, and excellent customer service made the whole experience a pleasure. Thank you, Jace!

The staff was so kind and amazing. Jace, the optician, helped me find the PERFECT frames to fit my style. All of his recommendations were spot on, it was so hard to choose just one pair. He also helped me file claims with my insurance, so I didn’t have to worry about navigating that myself. There were so many frames to choose from. This was the best glasses experience I’ve had, and I’ll definitely be back again for new frames in the future.

I lost my favorite prescription Warby Parker sunglasses and needed a new pair but also needed an eye exam. So glad that I discovered WP offers exams. It was quick, wait time was minimal, and the doctor was kind and thorough. Was in an out in 30 minutes with new sunglasses ordered. I will go back for my next exam.
