Appreciate it

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Tripti the optical manager is so kind, patient and helpful. From assisting you choose a frame that you like to helping you fix issues with your glasses once made, she would always go out of her way to help make the best fit. So grateful for her service. Sorry to know this Meier's optical store is closing.

Very pleased with my experience

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
I had my appoointment at Meijer on Morrish Rd. in Swartz Creek, Mi and cannot say enough about how wonderful the experience was. I am extremely happy with my new glasses! The Dr. was very professional, patient and informative. The customer service person is outstanding. I am 69 yrs old and have been wearing glasses since I was 40 so this is nothing new to me. I highly reccommend Meijer Optical services and will always be a loyal customer.

Not happy with the customer service

I bought a pair of prescription glasses on September 15th 2023. As of this date I have not gotten them. It's been 2 1/2 weeks. I went their yesterday only to that they were closed. Their days off are Sunday and Wednesday's. Tomorrow when they open up I'll be there. I sure hope I get them tomorrow. Why we they closed Tuesday (yesterday). I try calling there and they don't answer or call back.

Frustrated and Disappointed

Had called to make an appointment. Scheduled it.

Made sure I had given the lady my cell number to call to verify appointment. They did not call. Arrived and was told we missed our appointment. Umm no!

I even said back to the lady the date and time on the phone when I scheduled it. Also, would not take back unopened boxes of contact lenses. I was never told anything about exclusions. Said since we used insurance they could not.

Have worked customer service for over twenty years. This was an experience that was horrible. Even pulled my son out of school for the appointment and then was told we missed it. Will never be back.

Lost a Meijer customer for life. Whitestown, IN Meijer.

Don’t work with you

Got glasses there 2 years ago and never could use the bifocals unless I lifted my glasses up. Went back for new ones 2 years later and the doctor was great, but girl working was just as rude as before. Took my prescription and left to get them somewhere else.

I have been waiting for months to get new contacts. I have seen 3 different optometrists. Yet, I'm wearing an old pair. I go in, and I'm told to come back tmrw. I go back tmrw, and they are closed. I

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
The first optometrist sent for a pair that I could wear, but, not clearly at night. He tweaked the prescription, but then I couldn't read close up. I said just give the 1st prescription. Nobody could read his writing, and he had retired right seeing me. I said the place that made the contacts would know the prescription. NOPE! I was told they don't keep them!! The next 2 eye doctors have not been able to get them right!

Saw a bad review, not all Meijer are bad. I have good service at mine.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Ive been going to the same Eye Doc since I was a third grader with my first pair of glasses. My doc switch to Meijer and it has been just as good as going to jcp.

Ive had a great experience there, Ive purchased on zenni optical but the glasses offered at Meijer are higher quality than cheap online glasses stores. My husband gets his glasses there and they will adjust his glasses as need be here and there. They have good options for men. And trendy options for both men and women.

Ive bought sunglasses there as well and they were good quality. Over all Ive enjoyed my experience at Meijer optical.

Glasses purchased.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Meijer Optical - Glasses purchased.

First - the 50% off the second pair... They pointed to a bin with a bunch of frames scattered in them like trash.

The personalityless clerk said they wouldn't work for me anyways because with my prescription they could only use a certain kind of glasses.

Second - $60 off offer is only for those without insurance. So we worked it up both ways $350 out of pocket using my insurance, $405 out of pocket not using insurance with the $60.00 off!

Third - it took more than twice as long to receive the glasses then promised. I only found out about the delays by calling. They did not reach out to say there had been a delay due a "breakage" at the factory.

At first, it was relayed that the factory line had an issue. Another clerk explained my frames had been broken.

Fourth - the reading portion of the prescription is not correct. It's seems to be for a different reading distance than I am accustomed too. Oddly, I used the same prescription to have a pair of lenses made at another optical shop for my athletic glasses - same lens material, with the self-tinting.

This other pair is fine for distance and reading.

Much of my displeasure could have been tempered had the clerk had some sort compassion, a sense of humor, and basic people skills. She was not rude, more like direct without any flexibility.

Terrible service

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I went to Meijer Optical in Manistee Michigan and had an eye exam and ordered glasses the glasses that came in had the wrong prescription in the lenses. I made an appointment to see the doctor and then he examine the glasses that I got and said the lenses were made wrong.

He then proceeded to give the classes to the store manager Kendra and said to me that they would be remade. I called Kendra weeks later and asked if they were available or done and she informed me that they never received them and then proceeded to rant at me over the phone and not let me talk. Kendra claimed that she was the manager and by far the worst manager I have ever in my life dealt with she was rude inconsiderate and wouldnt let me even finish a sentence before she started over talking to me this person is unstable. I spent $689 on a pair of glasses that they have lost.

I dont know where they went, they dont know where they went and she claims that I never even came in. My recommendation is to never go to Meyer for any purpose.

Stress fractures on both lenses of new eyeglasses

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Recently bought eyeglasses for 20-year-old son. Two months later, stress fractures were appearing on the right lens. The glasses were taken back, and we were told it would take too long to prove that it was due to manufacturing and wed be better off to pay $56 for the insurance plan and co-pay. Son was going away to college, so we did this to get the lenses fixed sooner. After picking up the repaired glasses, the other lens now had large visible cracks also. I return to the store, and I was told I would again have to pay to get this lens fixed. I was furious! I didnt feel we should have paid the first time, but we needed the glasses fixed. I believe this was a problem with the lab/manufacturing. I felt Meijer shouldve stood behind their product and whatever lab they use. Originally played $144 for two pairs of glasses. I am not paying anything more to have these eyeglasses fixed! I cannot believe that they wont acknowledge the this is a problem stemming from the lab and not from neglect or misuse. I am done with Meijer optical will never use them again.

I ordered my first a pair of glasses, received it after 3 weeks that was a defective piece. Associate there told me oh i am sorry they put lenses in wrong frame. Got the right one after waiting 2 more weeks, it was a metal frame with a wire to protect lenses falling off of the frame. I used it hardly a month and the plastic wire came off from the right lens. Got my second and last pair, when i was choosing my glasses the associate was an older lady,I picked Ray.Ban frame so it last for good period of time, its legs seem wider on my face I asked her can I get a new frame this one seem loose, she said it doesn't have lenses in it, with lenses it will fit perfectly when I received my pair of glasses it was loose as it was without lenses. Having trouble with it every day, It is sliding down my nose all day and I have to push it back all day.
