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.

Updated review: after posting a 1-star review, I received a call from the store manager who is working to make things right. I appreciate her accountability and customer service.
Original review: I was convinced to get my reading RX in the lenses of my sunglasses. Now can’t use them. The prescription and the polarized lenses makes them unbearable. I went to the Rockefeller store to get the prescription lenses removed and to have them replaced with regular lenses. I was told simply replacing the lenses would cost $130 and the salesperson say it would be cheaper if I just bought a new pair for $95. That is so unbelievably callous, wasteful and ridiculous! I reached out to customer service and they responded with, “We are really sorry this happened, and we understand the frustration it is causing you.” No attempt to make it right. They lost a customer and I will tell everyone I know to avoid them.

I love this location. I got my first pair of glasses as an adult here and kept coming here since. Recently I had an accident where I passed out and faceplanted on the floor at home. Needless to say my glasses got really messed up. The legs were bent in a way where it was unwearable. I went in with little hope that they could do anything. Beatrice helped me, I let her know what happened and she told me she’s not promising anything but she will try her best. After sometime, she was able to make my glasses wearable again! I was over the moon with just that. Beatrice took it a step further. Since my glasses were still pretty new she was able to do a courtesy for me and get me a replacement pair. They would ship it to the store and I had to go in once they arrive to exchange my broken glasses for these new ones. I couldn’t believe it, I was so thankful. I’m not sure if you’ll read this but if you do, Beatrice thank you so much. You made a terrible experience into a great one. I’ll definitely keep coming back to Warby Parker for my future pairs of glasses.

Stopped in to get a free adjustment on my new glasses and asked if I could buy the microfiber cloth that comes with the glasses. The optometrist looked to see if she had any in store, she did. I asked what do I have to pay you for this? Nothing, if they have them on hand they will give you one. Excellent service from WP!

I went in a while ago and my glasses had been completely bent out of shape by another optician I had gone to in a crunch. Although it was a complex fix, Beatrice took the time and effort to patiently adjust my glasses, reworking them bit by bit after I tried them on each time until I was sure they fit perfectly. I was definitely worried about whether I'd be able to feel comfortable with my glasses again but Beatrice took great care of me and I will definitely be back again!
