EXCELLENT Based on 34 reviews Posted on Hannah ReyesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I 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.Posted on Tonya McMichaelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very 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!Posted on Salvation_or_DemiseTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing people, and amazing servicePosted on Brandi BarrickTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent business! Initially we bought my 2 year old’s first pair of glasses here. I returned to when it was time to purchase mine. My husband has also purchased glasses here. Wonderful experience 3 separate times!Posted on DAVID STARKEYTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thanks for job well done.Posted on Myranda JTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The only place I'll go to for my glasses! I've been going for 3 years and needed an emergency replacement for my glasses twice and they've always gotten me in a new pair right away. Highly recommend going there for your family!Posted on Kimberly ApplewhiteTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wonderful Family Owed Business !!!! I felt so welcomed and already apart of the family. In my first visit!Posted on William MarineTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A family owned business that offers great products and wonderful service. I bought a pair of s-frame Oakley sunglasses from them and really appreciated the time they took to inform me of the importance of choosing a polarized set of lens.Posted on Toni RoumainTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Posted on Nick BTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After having a not so great experience at a different Eyewear store, it was recommended i come to The Spectacle by a friend. 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. 🤙

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... read more 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.

I won a contest with them for a free pair of glasses from their own line (frames and lenses) I went with hopes of getting a pair of sunglasses since... read more my lenses and frames were fairly new and from them already and I’ve never owned prescription sunglasses! They were 100% on board with this so we picked a frame and ordered. When I went to pick them up I was so mad at myself bc I realized I forgot to get the mirror tint added on them!! I loved them but just knew I would love them even more with the tint. Well they had a little issue when cutting the lenses, so they wanted to re order a new lens bc it just didn’t look “perfect” for them and since we were ordering a new set we could add the mirror tint!! I’m in love with my new sunglasses and could not be more pleased with the customer service!!

We have been customers of The Spectacle for a few years now and have always highly recommended them. They are the most down to Earth people who treat us... read more like family! But let me tell you guys just how awesome they really are, Friday I showed up at 4pm to grab my daughter's contacts for her competition in the morning, but they closed at 2pm, I had totally forgot. Well, I got in touch with them and the Owners themselves met me there before they opened so that my baby could do her performance with her contacts, not her glasses. Yall that is customer service, that is customer care, and a relationship with your customers goes a long way. My daughter and her team placed 2nd out of 7 teams in their division at her very first Winter Guard Competition!!! Thank you!! Thank you!!! Thank You!! Best Business Ever!!!

After a bad experience at another local eye glass retailer, I decided to see what "The Spectacle" had to offer. I left their business EXTREMELY HAPPY. Tracy and her family... read more went way of their way to make sure I was properly taken care of. They explained what they had to offer in terms that were easy to understand and did not try to sell me something I did not need. By far the best part is, they sold me a like product for far less than what I had paid at the other retailer. First class business.
