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.

This was my second time getting glasses from Warby Parker, and once again, I’m impressed. Even though I placed my order online, the support and follow-up were seamless. The entire team was great to work with, but I want to give a special shout-out to Nicole.
She assisted my wife personally and made the whole experience feel easy and tailored to what I needed. As a fun bonus, she even had a rare Pokémon card on her, which was a great touch! It’s that kind of personality and service that keeps me coming back. Highly recommend!

My eye exam was thorough and Dr. Amin was very kind and helpful, and the desk associates helped me find what contacts and glasses were best with my insurance coverage. I will definitely return for my next eye exam.

I accidentally sat on my glasses and they were really bent, but thankfully Bee was able to fix them! She is a real surgeon!!! Thank you Bee!!!
Also kudos to WP for the quality, I can’t believe the frames survived this!

This location is amazing. It is bright and lively, the decor is unique and one of a kind and so are the multitude of frames that grace the walls. The associates in the store were very kind and welcoming. Especially Brianna who helped me out the entire time I was in the store after my eye exam. Brianna is very attentive to detail, she is experienced in what she does, she was very patient with me and within no time she was able to grasp the style that I was looking for in eyeglasses and ultimately helped me pick out some new frames. We connected as if we were family and I am so thankful for her and the team at this location.

Bee helped me find frames I love. I wouldn’t have thought to try the pair she put me in, but she was listening carefully to what I wanted and very observant of my face and what would work, and she knew what to do. Thanks for your expertise and thoughtfulness!

After 55 years of going to another optical brand (they were good), I decided to try Warby Parker for exam, glasses & contacts. My experience @ Warby Parker (Long Island City, NY) was EXCELLENT!!! Dr. Emily Ortiz & Bee were so helpful. If you’re thinking of trying Warby Parker, do so!!! Thomas

Five stars for the Warby Parker Court Square team! As a first-time eyeglass purchaser, I was so impressed with the level of service and care.
The entire team was incredibly attentive and made the process easy—from the thorough eye exam right through to helping me pick out the perfect new frames. They answered all my questions patiently and helped me feel confident in my purchase. Highly recommend this location for a smooth, stress-free experience!

Could not recommend this place more! I’ve come here for both my eyeglass and contact lens exams, as well as for eye care when I had a scratched cornea. The staff is incredible—friendly, efficient, and professional. I was seen promptly, and the doctors and team here always go above and beyond. Highly recommend!

This location is a solid alternative to heading into Manhattan. The team is attentive, helping not only fit you with the frame that fits your face, but also take the time to check and double check that the Rx will fit properly with the frame you choose. Shout out to Brendan for taking the time to help correct an order for another store where I didn't get the same level of service. Grateful for his help and for the time!

Brendan and Bee were amazing, patient, and honest in helping me repair my glasses and help with deciding upon a new pair. I cannot say enough of what a good experience I had. If I could get ten stars, I would give 11 (Spinal Tap Movie reference)!
