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.

At first I had some reservations, but the doctor was kind, very thorough with her testing, had a pair of contact lenses I could take home and made me feel more at ease afterwards because it had been some time since my last exam. Afterwards, one of the staff members gladly assisted me in finding "the pair"; offering relatable feedback and options. My vision feels clearer, and I'm looking forward to getting the new frames. The updates via email are nice.

I came in with old frames that were badly worn and warped (my fault), and the staff here literally spent an hour trying to fit my lenses into a new frame. Alas, my terrible eyesight meant it needed more tools than they had in the store, but the customer service stood out supremely. Big fan!

I came in for an eye exam and for help with a difficult problem that was causing me a great deal of stress. I was Immediately struck by the relaxed atmosphere of the store and by the very welcoming reception staff, who handled the all the pre-exam matters easily and efficiently. When I met the doctor, she had been briefed, but she listened with attention to everything I needed to explain about the problem I was asking her to solve for me. She didn't judge, she just started to figure the best way to get done what I needed. She didn't rush me; she was thorough
with the exam she gave me. By the end of the exam, she had made a plan that gave me a path forward, and then she made arrangements to make it happen. Needless to say, she did wonders for the considerable anxiety I came in with.
The whole experience was low stress and very productive.
I feel so fortunate to have found just what I needed, just when I needed it most. I recommend the doctor, the staff and the store to everyone, and you can all thank me later.

Marked my appointment that hadn’t happened yet as a no show? Claimed it was a “glitch” in the system and refused to help despite me receiving messages confirming my appointment at the scheduled time. Total disrespect of my time, get your eyes checked somewhere else. Warby Parker claims to have evolved to offer optometry services but really they are still only a retailer.
What it sounds like to me is that the people that worked there butted me out to get one of their friends an appointment. I say this because I’ve never experienced more apathetic blank stares in my life, you could feel their inner disgust fill the room. Not a single sorry was voiced for THEIR mistake.

Strange business model. There are nearly no glasses stocked in store, so if you come in wanting to buy glasses, even sunglasses, you must order and wait 7-14 days for them to arrive. I was shopping for sunglasses for a trip that I'm taking in a week, but I had to go to Sunglass Hut instead. I suppose that people needing prescriptions are willing to wait because they are used to opticians sending the frames out to get lenses. But sunglasses?

I drove 2 hours and 45 minutes to shop at Warby and Parker because they donate glasses for every pair of glasses sold. I had a wonderful experience. Everyone was polite and professional. The doctor was very knowledgeable and they had a huge selection of frames. The person who helped me with the purchase actually found the frames I chose based on what I was trying on.
