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.

Exceptional service. They cleaned up two pairs of glasses that I have owned for a few years to make them like new and were extremely helpful in finding new frames. No pushy sales, just great people trying to help.

From the moment I called to the actual visit it was met with great customer service. It’s a dying art in a world of AI. Human interaction is needed. Anyways, the staff was wonderful and actually attended to my needs and answered all my questions.

I had a very good experience at the Danbury Warby Parker, located on the second floor of Danbury Fair Mall yesterday.
The techs in the store are friendly and helpful, and the optometrist is thorough, knowledgeable and has a great "bedside manner".
Even though I no longer have vision insurance, I still paid slightly less than I did almost two years ago for an exam and progressive lenses from another optometrist, when I HAD insurance coverage.
My appt. was just yesterday, so I have not received my glasses yet, and so cannot speak to the quality of those at this time.

Lindsay was great! She helped my partner with his glasses and she didn’t even charge us 🥹 she educated me as well on the doctors and frames and she alone will be why I come back here for my glasses!

I stopped by Warby Parker when the nost tab fell off of my glasses. Emmy helpes me replace the missing part and then tefused my offer of payment. This is the kind of excellent customer service that will have me walking into a Warbey Parker store the next time I need a new pair of glasses.

Exceptional experience from start to finish! I had such a wonderful experience for myself and my daughter at Warby Parker in the Danbury Fair Mall. Dr. Jason Rutherford was outstanding…extremely thorough, knowledgeable, and genuinely educational throughout my exam. He took the time to explain everything clearly, answer my questions, and made me feel completely comfortable and confident in my care.
Jessica at the front desk was equally exceptional. She provided PERFECT customer care…warm, welcoming, attentive, and incredibly helpful. She made the entire experience seamless from the moment I walked in.
It’s rare to find a combination of excellent clinical care and truly exceptional customer service, but Dr. Rutherford and Jessica absolutely delivered both. I cannot recommend them highly enough.
