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 $35)
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.

Awesome retail experience, felt heard and seen and bought a great pair of frames! Staff are patient and kind, do not rush you in making decision. Super nice folks, lovely frames, and my insurance covered it, which was an added nice touch.

Easy, helpful, friendly and informative - I was taken in on time to see the optometrist. I got all my questions answered and was in and out with a new script and glasses on the way in less than 45 min. Also they have a great selection of glasses. Can’t wait to get mine (well I don’t “want” glasses but you know I want to see!).

This Warby Parker location always has exemplary service. During each visit employees have been helpful, knowledgable, and patient with our questions and selection choices. The store is always clean and well organized. My children have been wearing glasses for nearly a decade and deciding to purchase at Warby Parker is the best decision I could have made.

Despite their website AND their confirmation email confirming that they accept Davis Vision for eye exams, they do not. Wasted an afternoon. Scam

The selection here is great! I described what I was looking further, and the sales associate brought me several options. When I decided on frames, it was really easy to order without any markups. And the glasses will be delivered straight to my house. It couldn’t be easier!
