Comprehensive exams starting at $85
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.
The well-known portion of an eye exam where you read from a chart of progressively shrinking letters until they're too small to see
The part of the exam that determines your prescription for corrective lenses (if you need them)
A screening for issues like glaucoma and cataracts, and for signs of other health conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, and more
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)
Insurance, FSA, and HSA
Whether we’re in- or out-of-network with your carrier, you can use vision insurance to save at Warby Parker . (We accept FSA and HSA, too!)
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.

Below average customer service. Needed my warby parker glasses adjusted (usually takes just a few minutes). Workers never offered to help just said they were busy with other customers. I stood there for 10 minutes then just left. Will look to buy my next pair of glasses at LensCrafters next time.

I was not planning to visit today. I arrived at a neighboring restaurant early before meeting a client. I walked into the store with only a few minutes and just needed to pick out new frames to take to my ophthalmologist...I wanted to avoid spending an arm and a leg on frames. I walked out just a few minutes later with a $95 frame order having been placed. I think I was in the store for all of 5 minutes. The organization of the store was helpful, the friendly staff was knowledgeable and made the decision really very easy. Great experience. I will go back next time.

I’ve used this location multiple times and they’ve always been great. The staff is friendly all around, they get in for appointments on time and there’s no pushy sales people or tactics which is a big point for me. They don’t work with Blue Cross insurance which is what I carry but oh well, I’ll just have to go through a reimbursement. This is my go to spot for eye care.

My partner and I came in today to get glasses and sunglasses. We were quickly greeted by Sydd, who was truly excellent throughout the entire process. They were so helpful in understanding the process and options available, and ready to offer feedback and encouragement if requested.
It was really busy inside and only two employees were working, so it was clearly understaffed, but Sydd was a real rockstar and could have taught an expert class in juggling intake/refittings/checkouts/questions/lens replacements/new eye appointments (all happening in the time we were there). They made the experience so much nicer 🥰 thank youuuuuuuuu!

I went to Warby Parker on Armitage Ave. to get a new pair of glasses. I spent about $250 on a pair of frames and lenses. The staff was friendly, but the whole experience felt rushed. I didn't get the personal attention I expected, and the fitting wasn't great. The glasses didn't feel comfortable, and I had to go back for adjustments. Overall, not the quality service I was hoping for.

UPDATE: Sub-par service and overall customer experience.
I bought a pair of $450 glasses with progressive lenses in 2023 at the Armitage store. The frame hinge broke because it was made out of plastic. I brought the glasses in for service and was told that the glasses were no longer under warranty and the frame had been discontinued. My biggest issue is that the store manager offered no alternatives or suggestions rendering my expensive glasses worthless in less than two years. Buyer beware.
I took the advice noted in the response and followed up with Warby Parker Customer Service. The customer service agent responded by telling me that the solution is to buy another pair of $450 glasses. Surprisingly, they also explained that they had only a 30 warranty on frames. A quality pair of $450 glasses should have a warranty greater than 30 days.

Hi Carl,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We're truly sorry to hear about your experience with the glasses you purchased from our Armitage Ave. store and the difficulties you encountered when seeking assistance.
We strive to provide high-quality products and exceptional service, and it's clear we fell short in this instance. We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused and understand your frustration, especially given the investment you made in your glasses.
While we realize the frame you purchased has been discontinued, we would like to explore any possible solutions to address your concerns. Please feel free to reach out to us directly at the store or through our customer service team, so we can discuss how we might assist you further.
Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope to have the opportunity to make things right.
Best,
