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.

This is my 2nd time there and the optometrists I have seen have been amazing! Today the optometrist took his time to explain to me the transition to progressive lenses...Dr. Smith understands the changes can be difficult to cope with while being empathetic to my frustrations with my current glasses/prescription. The gentleman that helped me select my frames was amazing (I want to say he helped me last year as well). Understood what I was looking for and took his time to explain all the charges and show what insurance covered. Attachung pic from website of what frames I selected, may possibly update with a pic of myself when I receive them 😊

I had such an amazing time with WP Frontenac! Dr. Smith was phenomenal. I had some issues getting contact to fit in the past, but Dr. Smith didn't give up on me!! 10/10 - the whole team was amazing from start to finish. :))

I have been shopping for glasses at WP Frontenac since it opened there. My experience has been consistent- being greeted but not suffocated, invested staff with opinions and suggestions and reasonable prices with or without insurance. The addition of billing for out of network benefits is a welcome bonus!

Store is wonderful. People are pleasant and helpful. You now have to pay for parking at Plaza Frontenac so I probably won’t go back. I find that ridiculous!

Type Warby Parker in your gps in order to find the store. Once you enter the mall it’s to your right. The address sent through text will take you to the wrong place. Overall great location with amazing staff
