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.

Love this place. Staff is very helpful regarding the right fit and style for my glasses. They spent a lot of time helping me. Optometrist was very good, as well, which is why I go there every year for my eye exam.

This is SUCH a great place to get glasses at an amazing price/deal! I honestly wish I had found out about Warby Parker sooner 😅
For years, I used to order my glasses online from places like Zenni just to get the most bang for my buck because getting prescription glasses directly from optometrist offices is INSANELY expensive — even with insurance 😭 Same goes for places like LensCrafters and similar chains. I just personally can’t justify spending $500+ on ONE pair of glasses.
After doing some research online, I found out about Warby Parker and the rest is history ✨ This is definitely going to be my go-to place from now on, and I’ve already recommended them to a bunch of friends and family looking to update their glasses too!
Their prices are amazing, shipping was relatively quick, and I really loved that you can actually try on frames in-store in different sizes to better match your face shape and proportions before committing. The quality has also been GREAT. I intentionally waited a few months before posting this review because I wanted to see how my glasses held up over time, and I’ve had mine since February with absolutely no issues.
I was even able to get a pair of sunglasses along with my everyday glasses for LESS than what my optometrist office wanted to charge me for just ONE standard pair of daily glasses.
HIGHLY recommend this place! 🙌

Great experience! I love they have so many different styles for glasses. Sasha was very kind and helpful in finding me the perfect pair of eyeglasses and sunglasses. Also, the prices for the eyeglasses here are amazing. You truly won’t find anything cheaper. If you’re in the market for glasses go here! You won’t regret it.

I had high expectations for Warby Parker, but the experience fell well short, and honestly, Costco is far easier to order from.
The in-store staff are friendly, and I have no complaints there. The problem is everything that happens after you leave the store. My order was lost, and rather than being upfront about it, I was given misleading information about its status. Getting any clear, accurate update on when my glasses would actually arrive was a constant struggle.
All of this adds up to a serious lack of professionalism. Once your order is placed, WP seems to lose all interest in following through. Do yourself a favor and order somewhere else.

I have not received my glasses yet so this is reviewing only my experience of shopping at a WP brick and mortar store for the first time. The optician was so friendly, knowledgeable, and patient. She listened to my concerns and I asked for her recommendations for style as well as for the best combination of options for my needs. She even adjusted my existing glasses which made them usable again as they were out of alignment. I was nervous about shopping somewhere other than my optometrist’s in-house optic shop. I once tried using the optic shop at a local Costco and had a horrible experience. My experience so far with WP was completely pleasurable. I will reserve my full opinion until after my glasses come in!

He kindly addressed all of my concerns and even helped me understand my eye prescription better :) All of the staff in the front of the store were also incredibly helpful! Thank you!
