Lens Doctors

My third visit to Lens Doctors now, and it is now my last. The first time I visited them, they were insistent that I get a pair of glasses to accentuate my contact lenses. Problem was, their mens selection was one wall, while the women’s section was four walls. Not much to choose from. I did not get frames from them but they said they would be happy to help if I found frames elsewhere, with regards to RX. Next year, I visit, and again the same exact thing, first thing they started bringing me glasses and I had not even checked in for my appointment. The floor had three «salesmen» that were as pushy as car salesmen. I felt so much pressure, all I wanted to do was leave. I was again approached for frames, again only one wall of mens frames and nothing worked or looked good on me so I left. Finding a frame mid year I opted to go for it. The shop I went to said they had a difficult time with Lens Doctors, they were not helpful on the phone ensuring my RX is correct, lax in sending in the proper paperwork. I had to get involved which should have been a no-​brainer. Ultimately my experience turned out to be sub-​par. I experienced distorted vision on account of Lens Doctors not providing proper input to the lens cutter, ultimately leaving me in the middle of a he-​said-​she-​said debate between two companies who would not do right by the customer because someone, Lens Doctors, was upset they lost a sale. Enter my third appointment. They were all but too interested in my frames, where I got them, how I got them, the brand etc. I was very put off considering they’re unique to begin with and then the doctor began to discredit the company and the frames stating they had complaints of «reliability in the frames», which was unfounded due to the fact that they do not carry the brand/​style I chose. Instead, he had recommend a frame they carry saying they’ll look great on me, I was disinterested and mentioned the obscure vision I experienced with my current RX. His reply was to change the lenses, something that was done previously in the back and forth stage of my initial frame purchase. Had they done everything correctly, worked with my frame shop and lens shop, I doubt I would be stuck with bad lenses. Ultimately I will stay far away from Lens Doctors and their polyester suited sales crew.
