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.

Terrible quality products. Bought a pair of glasses less than one year ago and both lenses developed cloudy streaks inside the lens that cannot be cleaned off. It’s in the material. I was told that they could replace the lenses for a $65 charge but I was outside the warranty period. The material just degraded in less than a year and they want me to give them more money. Have many other glasses that cost a little more but hold up much better. And Warby is hardly a discount operation these days. Never again. All marketing and no quality or service.

Zakiya, the Mother of Opticians! 👓 She always gets me right. Every time I leave Warby Parker, I walk out more confident than when I came in. I appreciate her recommendations, her knowledge, and especially her eye for finding the perfect pair. At this point, I trust whatever she puts in front of me! Appreciate you, Zakiya!

My experience in Warby Parker was extremely wonderful. Zakiya Ahmed was professional, knowledgeable, patient and kind. She helped me to get the perfect glasses that helped to compliment my face. She knows her stuff. I give her the highest commendation possible. Kudos Ms. Ahmed and I will definitely be back!

After a bad experience with my usual optician, I went to Warby Parker. The same frames were $150 cheaper! And Zaytika made the process of finding flattering frames a pleasure. With patience and good humor she showed me frame after frame and helped me make my final choice!

I was really blown away by Warby Parker and the eye exam. I had no idea that the experience with the ophthalmologist would be that good, to be honest. I chose WP because it was walking distance from my work and it took my insurance. I had been battling eye discomfort for years and told there wasn’t much else I could do about my current status. After I saw the doctor, I felt comfortable asking all of my questions and he was so engaged, an incredible communicator, a fantastic educator, and over so patient and kind. He ended up putting me in contacts that seriously changed the game for me. He also provided me SO much helpful information about my diagnosis that I hadn’t heard from any other provider. The glasses department was great and the woman at the front who helped me also picked out the best frames for me. Everyone there seemed like they all liked to work there and enjoyed each other’s company. It was seriously a delightful experience and I highly recommend!

I visited the Georgetown DC store & had a GREAT interaction with Lisa. She was absolutely amazing!!
I told her I was looking for a BOLD set of eyeglasses & after a few pairs, she amazed me with the BOLD set of glasses I was looking for.
Remember, it's the team within the store that make the experience amazing!
