America’s Best Contacts & Eyeglasses

They broke my $ 400 ray bands putting in new lenses and gave me $ 60 to replace them… So yeah

Bait and Switch… I walked out before the exam.
I made an appointment to go there today… I had not been there before but my husband tried them out 2 years ago and was happy except that he ended up with much more expensive glasses than he wanted, but he was «convinced» they were the only ones that would work for him.
We no longer have vision insurance so I decided to try them out for $ 40 less than my regular eye doctor (whom I love dearly… I have worn contacts for at least 6years). Americas Best advertises $ 79 for a «contact lens exam» so I decided to try them out, and save $ 40. I went in for my appt this morning and just before the exam I was handed paperwork to select for $ 15 more some tests for eye diseases etc…,.glaucoma, cataracts, etc etc. I was so annoyed… these are tests that my regular eye doctor does routinely as part of his fee. With the additional $ 15. I would still end up spending $ 25 less for the exam than my regular eye doc, but I was so annoyed that I said I felt this was a disguised bait and switch tactic and I did not trust working with them further… the staffer asked me if my regular doc provided after care and free fittings and I said «yes, and I’m going back to him,». I walked out of the exam room and called immediately for an appt with my regular doc!
