2 Appointments initial eye exam and a contact lens training which is separate probably cost more then the eye exam it's absurd. Can't order contacts due to no training when the eye doctor supplied the eye prescription they should in turn do the training same day without a separate appointment, it's been over a month since the first initial exam no contacts yet because doctors schedule booked out. Not even a trail pair...and I can't order still after the training because it requires a third appointment.....before any consent ... read more

Be very careful using this company, they made my prescription glasses incorrect and blamed it on my eyes possibility needing surgery and referred me to my eye specialist, after 2 separate independent eye exams and extra specialist doctor fees. My eye specialist doctor laughed at America best suggestion for surgery and gave me the results that my eyes did not need surgery and my prescription was made wrong.

I guess I should have read the reviews before going to Americas best this has been the worst experience ever!!! My husband paid $300 for his glasses and got exactly what he needed Americas best attempted three times to make my glasses correct and never succeeded. Reached out to their corporate office never got any satisfaction still trying to get my money back they could care less and now I see why they are not rated with the BBB. Do yourself a favor and never go there!

If I could give this Zero stars I would. Yeah they run ads such as 2 for $69.95/2 for $99.00, But what they fail to tell you is that they use the cheapest materials that they can and if you break your classes through no fault of your own because they use such cheap material your glasses have to be sent out and if your blind in one eye and purchased only 1 pair of glasses than your struck , cuz they have to send your glasses Out for repair; and sometimes it takes up to two weeks to get it back. My suggestion to not purchase a... read more

This is in regards to the America's Best in Largo, Florida. Dr. Derek ****** is a horrible person! He is extremely mean and scary. Back in the examination room, just Dr. ****** and I, he had me crying and sobbing and shaking. I felt threatened by him. During the examination, he told me that I am lying to him regarding the letters that I see on the wall. He screamed at me. I told Dr. ****** the letters on the wall are blurry and he raised his voice and screamed at me so loud that he made me jump and cry and he told me but he ... read more

I purchase a pair of eyes glasses a few months ago from America's Best. The first week I had them. They got a knik in the left lense. They are suppose to be under a warranty, but when I went back I was give a hard time. I paid extra money to have a coating on the lenses, but now they are so scratched up that the lenses are like looking through fog. I have never used any paper products to clean them with. Just the special micro fiber cloth and cleaner that I purchased from them. They are the cheapest eye glasses that I have o... read more

This store just discriminated against me, embarrassed me in public and waisted a good amount of my time. I am unfortunately disabled with 2 major disabilities. One is very noticeable due to the limp and carbon fiber leg brace. The other is not as visibly noticeable. I have severe respiratory issues due to a growth defect as a child. I only have one lung, which only functions at approximately 80%. So I am unable to wear the "covid masks" without passing out. I tried explaining this to the front desk girls and was met with ext... read more

This place is just greedy for money , no ******** service!! This is the second time and I **** never return . I made an appointment and was asked about insurance told him where I worked. Thinking they would look up my insurance, they said they could look it up. I get there and no one asked me about my insurance. I was seen and the wait long wait to pick out glasses, I asked could I return and pick them out and just get my prescription. I was told 👎 I had to see a CS agent. Then, I find out they didn't even verify or check... read more

America's Best in Victor NY advertises if you buy 2 pair of glasses you get exam for free. I purchases 2 pairs of ladies sunglasses with a different prescription in each. I wanted one pair for distance and one pair with bifocals for reading. They made one pair completely wrong and told me I needed to pay an additional $110 to fix their mistake. When I told them I couldn't pay to fix their error I was offered a refund for the glasses minus the eye exam that they now charged me for. Corporate is no help. Manager at location to... read more
