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.

Place is a joke. I walked in 7 minutes late for the last appointment of the day, and was told I could not be seen. Meanwhile if I was greeted immediately upon walking in, instead of having to wait, I would have been fine. I drove through 30 minutes of traffic, just to not be seen as the last customer of the day.
I will not be coming back here, and my significant other needed glasses as well, and she will also be getting them elsewhere now.
These people must hate money, whoever hires and trains their staff loves to lose money for the owners.
Back to supporting small businesses it is! Thanks warby for making it easy. 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

Their customer service told me on the phone they could support a driver’s license renewal eye exam so I made an appointment, but then when I got to the store they could not do it because they did not have the right equipment. Do not recommend.

The entire staff was amazing! I walked in for a cleaning kit and left with two new pairs of glasses that I really like. I was guided on which frames suit my face better and my measurements were taken with care. Alexis and Roberto did an excellent job! There was also one other team member (female) that I did not catch her name, was also amazing. I highly recommend this location and Warby Parker to anyone. Service, care, and prices like this is why I will continue to return and sing this locations praises.

This retail store Of Warby Parker is a great location. It’s easy to locate. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable as well as the doctor. The office is clean. You’re treated as a very important customer. You’re seen at your appointment time. Not a long wait not really a week. I just like the office and I like the employees and I definitely love the doctor.

Eye exam at 9:45. Store wasn't open and I left at 10:10 after waiting 25 minutes. The doctor was outside too waiting for a manager who never came. A complete waste of time and parking $$$.

Stopped by Warby Parker just to browse and try on glasses but ended up buying two frames. I’m obsessed!
Jerius was amazing: helpful, kind, and super patient while I tried on tons of options. He gave great feedback and made checkout quick and easy by verifying my insurance and helping me get the best price with their current promotion.
Can’t wait for my glasses to arrive. I’ll definitely be back for another pair soon!

The staff was incredibly nice and Johanna (sp?) was a miracle worker. I brought in a pair of glasses that had been sat on and she was able to bend them back in shape so they look just like new. I’d give them six stars if a I could!

Jerius was very helpful! I have mostly worn contacts for the last several years, so he helped me find a glasses frame that suited my face. I wasn’t ready to make my purchase yet— but I have a better idea of what frames I will likely come back to buy. Thanks!
