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.

Beatrice was amazing. She took the time and patience to make sure I could see properly. I will definitely refer my friends and families to come to warby parker and see Beatrice for their glasses.

Stopped in to have my glasses repaired and was assisted by Beatrice and Camila. They couldn’t have been more kind and helpful. My glasses were fixed promptly and I left with a better pair than I had arrived with. This is my favorite WP location in all of NYC! Customer Service is top notch! Thank you again for all your help today!

Good store! Nice service for everything, including eye exam, shopping for new glasses. The whole process was very efficient, and even though I was out of network, they helped me file a claim with my insurance. Will update here how that ultimately goes.

Very disappointing experience in-store. I am a loyal Warby Parker customer but this location's customer service was absolutely outrageous. We were not tended to properly and were addressed with a very poor attitude. I was so annoyed that I had to go to a different location to complete my purchase. Date of visit: 3/1 2pm

Tried to call the store to ask a very important question. Instead I'm bombarded with automated/AI voice messages. I take back my 9/10 review they asked me for my survey. There's no way I can get to a representative by phone and I'm so restricted.

I had an idea of what frames I wanted for hoped to try them on in person. Sales associate Anna, approached from the back of the store to greet me and she stuck around nearby if I needed anything. The frames I wanted were a little too big for my face, but the Watts were me through and through. Anna told me about some promos to save some money, one of which I took her up on, $50 off frames with the purchase of 12month contacts. I was in and out in half an hour tops. Check it and let me know what ya think:

I had an excellent experience here. Dr. Makkawi was exceptional, she was very kind, patient, and I finally have the right prescription. She was able to figure out why my previous prescription was uncomfortable and made the necessary adjustments. The staff were very helpful when picking out my frames! When I got my initial pair, it was uncomfortable. They adjusted as many times as I needed, then thankfully Beatrice helped me figure out my my frame was uncomfortable and she recommended solutions and gave me advice on what to look out for if I decided to exchange them. I exchanged them very smoothly, and she helped me pick out a frame to make sure I'm avoiding the problem I was facing with the initial frame I bought. I definitely recommend this place. There are so many gorgeous frames to pick, the costumer service is also exceptional!

This location has quite an extensive supply of farms to choose from. But what made this experience exceptional for me was first of all, Sam... he was outstanding in his customer service, time he took and how explained everything to me was deeply appreciated. Then his colleague Delynn (sorry, for the spelling... like the car but not the car Delorian) - she too was informative and walked through various fitting options with me for the frames I was interested in. I really appreciated both reps and the size of the inventory on hand. I highly recommend this location and both Sam and Delynn.

Warby Parker Rockefeller Center provides a great shopping experience. Beatrice, who always helps me with purchasing new glasses, as well as with adjustments, is polite, friendly, courteous, knowledgeable, patient & professional. I purchased a new pair of eyeglasses & a new pair of sunglasses on my most recent visit, and as usual, Beatrice made it all very easy, efficient, fun & relaxed. Thank you, Beatrice!
