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.

Two great experiences in this store. I purchased 2 pairs of sunglasses as well as one regular pair of glasses a couple of months ago and the guy who helped me was excellent (unfortunately didn’t get his name). Revisited again today and Bee was fantastic too. Will definitely return!

I went to Warby Parker Court Square and they were all very nice but the product provided and the experience has been bad.
I came in with my own prescription written down and was told they couldn't take it because it didn't have a doctors name. Frustrating I agreed to pay 134 dollars to have a new exam, did so, picked out glasses and ordered them.
Today I got the new glasses and they are wrong. The prescription given by the doctor is wrong, I can't see close items at all, meanwhile my current glasses on my old prescription works great for distance and reading.
Warby Parker is giving me a refund for the glasses when I send them back but was told the prescription exam cannot be refunded. So I am trying to fight that and now I wait for a call back which may or may not ever come.
Nice glasses (which I would like if they had just accepted my current prescription) but avoid the eye exam. Waste of time and money.

Dr. Ortiz is a compassionate provider and heard my concerns, and described what was going on in a comprehensible way. The front desk staff member Bee helped me to select frames that aligned with my personal style, and seems to genuinely love her job which was very sweet.

I bent my warby sunglasses and stopped in to see what could be done. Bee greeted us right as we stepped in and helped us out right away. She was able to determine that there was hope and applied heat to mend it back. Thoroughly impressed by the good customer service!

I had a very good experience. I went in for an eye exam and for a new pair of glasses. Dr. Ortiz was great and explain everything I needed to know. My co-worker recommended Warby Parker Court Square so that was the reason I went there and she got a lovely pair of glasses.
