      On Sept. 6, 2024, I visited the MyEyeDr. store on ******** in the town of ******* in **************, **, for my regular eye examination. My eyes were examined and, upon advice of the doctor, I ordered a new pair of glasses That was close to two months ago!! Since then the store has not communicated with me in any form about when my new eyewear might be ready, and I have been unable to even find my prescription in my patient portal. My efforts to contact the company have been to no avail.

      I had my eye exam on December 3, 2024 Was promised my glasses on December 24, 2024.Was informed they lost the shipment and put a rush on a new order and that id have them the week of the 30th.Called today to get a better timeframe, was informed it would be another week or two.I'm extremely upset and inconvenienced because obviously I need glasses if I scheduled an appointment for eye care. This is not for fashion, I can't see at night. Something needs to be done immediately.

      Months ago I had an eye appointment at this facility, and purchased glasses. My insurance covered a portion of the cost, and I paid for the rest in cash. Months later, I received a bill for $22 from a third party "affiliate", with a new itemized breakdown of the costs associated with my transaction. There is no explanation as to why that is, and now I am receiving bills and text messages telling me to pay the outstanding bill. I still have my original invoice, which clearly shows that I paid for all of my services and can supply documentation if requested.

      I took my son, ****** **** into eye Med on December ****** for an eye exam. At the time we were told he needed glasses. He picked out the frames he wanted and I tried asking the lady about transition, but before I could even finish she said he would not need them and that was it. She wouldn't discuss it. So I paid $40.00 that day but less than a week my son said he really needed sunglasses or something because it was hard to drive with his glasses. I called Eye Med back and was told it would cost me no more than $60.00 to put the transition in his glasses. When we got there not only was it more we were told he no longer had a warranty since his glasses had to be remade. I tried to explain the conversation I had when ordering the glasses but they didn't care. And the additional cost was $150.00. I tried to tell them I was told no higher than $60.00 over the phone but they didn't care. The man I talked to was right there and all he said was I didn't know. What I'm asking for is the warranty back and the difference in money. Thank you.

      October 19, 2024 I was a patient at MyEyeDr. I was examined by Dr. *** ****. The exam was quick and I was released to pick out my frames. clinic was busy and the wait was long. At last I sat and she made marks on the frames and I was told they would be ready in a week or 10 days. I left and looked forward to my glasses. I came back and everything was blurry in the glasses. A different woman was now blaming the older woman who made the marks. "She made the marks wrong. It is our fault. I'm sorry. We will send them back". I agreed to wait again for replacements. I went in a second time and the glasses were still wrong. Now, I am wondering if the exam was just poor. I asked for a refund and I was assured I would get one. Today, 12/28/24 I go to another clinic to get glasses before the end of the year and I find out that the exam was not refunded. I was refunded the glasses that never worked due to incompetence, but not for the exam. I want that cost refunded. I have no idea what the cost was, because I used insurance. Everyone in the office was hateful. I want a refund and an apology. They have cost me my insurance benefits for glasses before the end of the year.

      This business refuses to release important information about my prescription. They use is as a sales tactic to get you to purchase your glasses with them.

I was given a second trial without prescription.For six months I have asked for the prescription. I had some email correspondence from a manager who ******* of now, the position is I did not attend a follow up appointment. At no point was I informed or notified of a follow up visit.Moreover, the company asked me to order contacts from them after the second trial pair. I know longer live in ** nor feel compelled using their service.I am requesting a refund as I paid for a prescription I never received.

       Complaint: 22686219

      I am rejecting this response because:

      i drove to two different MyEyeDr locations hundreds of miles apart. I was given a trial sample contact lens that was unavailable after paying for a prescription on my first visit in one location and the given another prescription at a separate distant location hundreds of miles away. At the second location a doctor did not verify the lens fit and I wound up without any contact prescription I paid for.

      I had an eye exam and purchased eye glasses in July of 2023. I purchased a warranty and understood from previous warranty purchases that this would cover my eyeglasses for 3 years as previously was covered from the last 10 years of eyeglasses purchased from this store. I was NOT told that the warranty was for only 1 year. If so, I would never have purchased the expensive warranty as I use these glasses expressly for reading. The glasses and warranty cost over ******. In December of 2024 I took the eyeglasses back to the ****************** location and was told that the springs were stripped and I would have to purchase a new pair of eyeglasses frames as they were not able to be repaired and were not covered by a warranty. This was the first I heard that the glasses were no longer covered under a 3 year warranty. I only used these glasses for reading and cannot understand how they would already need to be replaced. I believe I was misled into purchasing a warranty and was not told about the previous 3 year warranty being changed to a one year warranty.
