Was hesitating to write this review since the store Manager Angelo has always been a gentleman. Have bought four pair of glasses at this store and he has always treated me with respect. Purchased a pair of Gucci glasses for $516. This was in addition to the $498 paid by my vision plan. My purchase was on July 17, 2016. Less than three months of purchase date, my lenses were scratched. I only use the proper eyeglasses cloth so thought the right thing to do was take them to the store.My wife took the glasses since they were un... read more

This doctor was extremely condescending and did not listen to my concerns. I paid the entire fee just to have him give me the Same prescription I had 2 years ago from another doctor, even though my vision is clearly worse. He kept me waiting for over 20 minutes past my appointment time --with NO other patients there--& became very rude when I mentioned I was on a time schedule. Waste of money, time and dignity. I Do Not Recommend.

I bought my Chanel frames through Absolutely Optical. Angelo was very friendly and helpful. I really appreciate GOOD customer service. Very courteous. I am extremely pleased. I cannot comment on the optometrist as I came with my prescription from another doctor.

What can I say that has not already been said? Well, it is all true. " Don't Even Bother, Terrible Customer Service, Misleading, Disrespectful, Rude, Questionable Services ". Big mistake when I chose to let Dr. Well ( owner ) give me an exam. The script that wrote for me was not accurate at all. I was able to see better with NO glasses. When talking to his staff I was scheduled for another appointment. I received a voice mail reminder the day before where I was told to call if I could not keep it so he does not " waste his t... read more

AVOID doing business here! Unprofessional, rude, and dishonest. I dealt with two different people in my first two encounters to try to get a pair of glasses made. When I returned, each time the other person no longer worked there. The story changed as to my glasses. I finally spoke to Dr. Weil who was also incredibly rude. He referred me to the lab manager, Angelo. Angelo and I agreed to cancel the order. Now Dr. Weil is trying to collect for glasses that were not delivered. AVOID this place!

I went to Absolutely Optical after I looked them up on the VSP website. I called to make an appt. to get contact and glasses script. When I explained to the employee what I wanted, I asked how much it would cost me and he said only my co-pay for the exam. After the exam, I noticed on the receipt that I was charged $76 for a "contact fitting", which entailed me telling Dr. Weil my correct curvature of the contact and he had me try on the pair he had available (more of a curve that I already knew didn't fit my eye). After 5 mi... read more

There should be a ZERO star to rate this place. (The International Mall store) It's not about the store, but their curstomer service. Friday 11/18/2011 around 5:00pm, there was just one person in the store (Angelo) who was behind a counter and on the phone with someone. My wife walked in and after 10 minutes I could see she standing and looking but no one arround, that'e when I walked in and found (Angelo) on the phone. He made a face and walked out and asked what he could do to help, but when we started to say, he went back... read more
