The time of waiting is extremely unacceptable. I have been to several eye exams, at different cities, every year and the time of waiting here was way too much. I would never go back here honestly, and their designer frames are maybe 2 or 3. Plus, if you get one of those designer brands, you don’t get the original frame case.

Hello. We’re sorry to hear about your experience and the concerns you described regarding the wait time, limited designer frame selection, and not receiving the original frame case. We understand how frustrating it must have been, especially compared to your past experiences. We strive to offer a wide variety of frames at competitive prices. Will be escalating this internally to ensure it's thoroughly reviewed. We appreciate your feedback.

The Stanton Optical staff at the Fountains gave exceptional service. They were helpful and informative about the different options for me to choose my glasses; they also made the exam visit comfortable and offered a new service that was added to test for signs of glaucoma and cataracts. With my insurance, the exam and the inclusion of two pairs of glasses was reasonably priced. I received my new glasses within a week. I will continue to use their services. Thank you so much!

🔥I won’t mention how long but it took a while to get my glasses right! The guy in Las Cruces gave me erroneous information so I went to El Paso instead! Wasn’t impressed! Long wait, plenty of employees to help but I’m guessing few were trained! I will probably not be going back! The glasses were very high quality and the staff were very nice !

Service was pretty quick to get my glasses
Price was really good. The only thing I didn’t like is I had to wait almost 2 hours just to be seen but other than that it was really neat and I was glad I got one pair of glasses the next day and just waiting for the other pair and customer service was really great.

The manager was amazing. He went above and beyond when it came to helping me out. He was able to replace my glasses when no one else would.

Professional
Professional and assisted with discounts on the final purchase. Only downside was that the glasses took nearly two weeks to arrive. But the store and it's service excelled at their tasks.

Total disappointment
With appointment, from the moment I walked in the waiting is ridiculous. I felt ignored from the time I was supposed to be welcome. The total process was ridiculous. Next year I just have to try to find another optcal.

Stanton is a great place to get glasses and contacts. Staff is kind and caring. The only issue i have is telling people that the contacts and glasses eye exam are two different exams.
