1 star is being nice


1 star is being nice. In May of 2025 I went in for an exam and they had me order contacts. I told them then that the contacts weren’t the right strength. Gave me another sample to try. Still wrong. Tried another pair and they were wrong again. I went in on Feb 10, 2026 to tell them again that the contacts were still wrong and they gave me the same 3 sets to try again. Up close I can’t read a thing in all 3 pairs. Distance one is good. Well since they had my script I went in and also asked about getting glasses and wanted a pair I have already to have the lenses replaced. Got everything together and I pay for it on my care credit. Wellllll they tell me that they can’t accept it that way that they don’t know how to verify it on their end and that they don’t have the money. I show them my phone and show them that they are paid! Today is March 4th and the money is still taken out of my acct. how can a corporation not realize they have an extra $388.77???? I’ve called care credit and they have told me that the manager can call them and tell them that services weren’t done that they aren’t fixing the glasses since they don’t know how to do their job by looking on the care credit page to see that they were paid! I’ve called the manager and asked him to call me back. I had to leave a message. It’s been almost a month and I still haven’t been refunded. So now they have over $200.00 in contacts still sitting in their office that I can’t use and need a refund on I also have a care credit amount of $387.77 that needs refunded. I’m looking at this staff and company and feeling like they are nothing but thieves at this point.

So please DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE!!!! I’m owed almost $600.00 and can’t get anyone to help me get my money back!!!!
