ExcellentBased on 34 reviewsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Hannah Reyes2022-02-22I came in today with broken frames and my glasses were fixed within minutes. The young man working was extremely personable and helpful. They are affordable and their staff goes above and beyond to make sure you are taken care of. I would highly recommend this establishment for all of your eye care needs.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Tonya McMichael2022-01-27Very pleasant experience. Everyone there was genuibely interested in getting us the best help. We esp loved how they helped to choose our frames...they were very sweet and honest with ea pair that our family woyld try. They really have an "eye" for what would best "frame" your face (wow, I'm very punny tonight). Side note: they are out of network. Also, be sure to have them break down your out of pocket cost before buying. I incurred more costs than what is merely tagged on the glasses. Anyways, check them out!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Salvation_or_Demise2022-01-20Amazing people, and amazing serviceTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Brandi Barrick2021-10-09Excellent business!

It was a great recommendation that I want to pass on. Very cool place, extremely helpful staff. Great selection and they were able to help me while I waited. Its not often you find places with great products and even better staff, but this place is one. They will treat you right and you will leave happy. 🤙

... read more I have NEVER experienced customer service like I did at the spectacle. I was greeted and offered a same day appointment. Then Dr. Vaughn was so down to earth and made me feel comfortable. She was thorough with her exam and made sure my prescription was accurate. This family ran business is unlike any other. They made sure I had glasses the same day and I am blown away by their care. Do yourself a favor and go to the spectacle for all of your eye needs. I Love this business!!

... read more Walked in without an appointment and was out in a hour!!! Dr. Vaughan was amazing, Tracy helped me pick out the perfect pair of Kate Spade glasses and even got Dr. Vaughan's input! Appreciated Tracy's honest opinion, we narrowed it down to two frames one a little more expensive than the other, she never tried to persuade me to buy the more expensive....that was my doing!� Thanks Dr. Vaughan and Tracy for a very pleasant experience.

... read more Great service, very quick and thorough exam. They offer a wide selection of frames and offer a very quick turnaround in dispensing your glasses. The price for the exam and the glasses was less than my last eye exam. Great hometown people, I look forward to doing business with them for a long time!
January 12, 2017... read more My daughter and I both had our exams yesterday. She ended up not needing glasses but I needed a new pair. We both got our exams and I got a pair of glasses and they even made them while I waited! All for only 150.00. Who can beat that? I would definitely recommend this shop.
July 29, 2016... read more This group is wonderful! I went in desperate for new eyeglasses and since my vision is very poor without ny eyeglasses they were wonderful in helping me from frame selection through the ordering process.

April 13, 2020... read more I am truly pleased with my entire experience at The Spectacle! My eye exam with Dr. Vaughan was thorough and she took time to answer all my questions. The staff is so friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. I didn’t feel rushed, even after trying on 50 different frames, to pick out my new pair. Huge thanks to Mr. Shawn, who spent extra time and worked after hours to perfect my new prescription lens! It is absolutely refreshing to find a place so dedicated to satisfying each and every person who walks in their door. You wont find a business more committed to personalizing your experience beyond expectation!

February 24, 2017... read more The owners were very patient with me as I tried on just about every frame they had in their store. � They stayed open later than closing and never rushed me out. This will definitely be my go-to place for future eye exams and frame purchases. Highly recommended!

... read more I really enjoy the entire process. The eye exam is extremely through and Dr Plauche is very easy to talk to. She lets me know what she is doing and why. I have never really liked picking out my glasses but now it is different. Tracy is very honest, when I try different frames on if she doesn't think they look good she will let me know and I trust her. Nikki is fantastic at making sure I get exactly what I need and if I am asking for something she feels I do not need she will let me know. I always leave knowing I have gotten the best price and feel good about the entire process.
July 6, 2019... read more Best place I have ever been to! They are quick and easy to work with, and they also help you find the perfect glasses for you they don't just let you pick a pair that doesn't look good on you! I will forever be going here for all my glasses needs!

... read more Wonderful Experience. My daughter broke her glasses over the weekend and we arrived at The Spectacle a little after 10:00. My daughter made it to school by 11:00 with her new cute glasses. Exceptional customer service and the largest selection of frames (the cutest) for children I’ve seen. I will be purchasing both my children’s frame at The Spectacle for any future needs. Also, I will be making myself an appointment with the Eye Doctor at this location.

Also, they didn’t try to up sell me or get my to purchase anything and worked with my budget. I was very impressed. My only regret was not going there sooner! I will definitely recommend to all my friends. Thank y’all for such a pleasant experience ❤️
