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.

Had a great experience with my eye exam here. The doctor was very professional and friendly. When I was done, I wasn't pressured to buy my glasses there. The store was very clean and the staff was very friendly and helpful.

I managed to sit on my week old glasses and pop the lenses out. Theresa was amazing and fixed them for me right away as a walk in customer. The rest of the staff is fantastic and incredibly helpful. 10/10 would recommend this warby location to everyone. Thank you!

Dr. Wu and her assistant are very pleasant and efficient. I Love how the store is small and quiet. All the glasses are clearly marked and easy to see on the shelves. The people are always happy to help. And the frames are very reasonably priced. What more can you ask for?

These guys are crooks. I went for an eye exam, which was great. I paid the full amount $140 with my credit card before I left. Then, one month later they sent me a bill for "unpaid balance of $28". This is outrageous. $140 was the advertised price and I paid it in full. At no time during our conversations did anyone indicate that more money might be owing. Do not go to this place, you will be sorry.

The eye exam was incredibly thorough - the doctor took the time to explain every step in detail and made thoughtful, personalized suggestions for my prescription. I also had a great experience choosing frames; the staff guided me patiently and helped me find a style that truly suited me. Overall an excellent visit from start to finish!
