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.

If the prescriptions are properly filled, I'll give the review a 10! Value, service, assortment. I have a difficult prescription and have always bought top of the line glasses believing my choice of optician would assure a good fit. I was able to buy two frames with transitional, gradiant lenses for less than the price I usually pay for one.

I am delighted to have a Warby Parker up in my neighborhood. I have loved their glasses since I bought my first pair, about six years ago. So many neat designs — and so affordable. It's a great brand, the stores are airy and bright, and the salespeople really helpful. I rarely leave without having purchased a new pair of glasses!

On October 10, 2025, I had an appointment at the Warby Parker location at 2875 Broadway, and the experience was amazing. I was treated with professionalism and care. Dr. Nicholas Roferos was easy to talk to, explained everything clearly, and encouraged me to ask questions. He was patient and seemed genuinely concerned about my well-being. It was truly a great experience. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made me feel safe and comfortable throughout my visit.
I would highly recommend Warby Parker for glasses and eye exams. They are thorough and use state-of-the-art equipment. The selection of glasses is amazing, and the overall experience is exceptional.

Warby Parker Morningside Heights is a great one-stop store to get your eyes checked and to get new glasses. I was greeted warmly at check in, and was able to leisurely browse before my exam time. The exam was done thoroughly by Dr. Aguilar, who was also warm and personable. She also gave helpful recommendations for further follow ups. The eyeglasses shopping right after the exam was also very lovely. I was able to try on many pairs of frames, and with very helpful suggestions from the staff, feeling not rushed at all in the spacious storefront. Once I chose my frames, the staff continued to explain carefully what comes with the frames and Rx glasses, including any additional, optional charges. My questions were answered clearly and professionally. The whole process was very enjoyable. I would happily recommend this Warby Parker location!!
