I ordered my glasses on February 26 and apparently they received them 2 days later and I didn’t not receive an email , call or text message that they were there in the office I had to call to see if my glasses were there. I called on March 13 wondering why they have not arrived the glasses had been there for about 2 weeks . When I called that day the said I should of received a call or message but I did not and when I got there they told me that they did not send a message because my last name was hyphenated but what does that have to do with them not calling me.

Hello Junnifer. We sincerely apologize for the confusion and lack of communication regarding your glasses. We are always looking for ways to improve and better serve our community, and we'll be escalating this internally to ensure it's thoroughly reviewed. We appreciate your feedback.
Awesome. Would recommend.
Very knowledgeable, offering multiple lens configurations that others do not, such as full lens prescription as opposed to "center only" that discount places offer. Quick, timely, and excellent service.

Even with single vision lenses & inexpensive frames, we came no where close to $79! Nearly $300 later, I did receive 2 pairs of glasses, but it was not at all what was advertised.
