| - This is the best place I've ever gone for an eye exam and the best place I've ever gotten glasses. Since I have required corrective lenses for a couple decades now, lived in several cities, and gone through a couple pairs of frames a year (on average), this is saying something.
I stopped in basically on a whim to check out the frames selection and decided to book an eye exam based on the GREAT customer service and the nice range of options for my (absolutely gorgeous but hard-to-fit) face. From the moment I stepped in the door, people were super-friendly and helpful. The staff clearly care about making sure people love their frames. More than that, they are good at picking a selection of frames that flatter people's facial structure. Even more than that (and rarest of all), they are good at taking individual customers' aesthetic preferences into account once they've learned what those preferences are.
The eye exam was about as pleasant as an eye exam can actually be, too. Once again -- great customer service with offers of drinks, candy, etc. while I waited, and a pleasant, friendly doctor with a caring demeanor.
Pricing was completely reasonable, as well. The prices for frames and lenses seemed average for the area. I have vision coverage as part of my health insurance, which took care of the exam and the first pair of lenses I bought, as well as $60 towards a pair of frames. But I wanted two pairs of glasses, and the frames I liked were more in the $250 range (although they had plenty of less-expensive options too). Based on past experiences, I was planning on shelling out $400-$500. However, Three Guys will give you a really good discount on a second pair of glasses (they will discount frames AND lenses). So I walked out of there with two pairs of amazing glasses for well under $400. The first pair was ready in less than a week!
Finally, when it was time to pick up my glasses, Three Guys helped me out one last time. I was taking care of a relative's small dog, and absolutely could not leave her alone with my cats. But it was also 90 degrees out so I couldn't leave the dog in the car, either. Although they usually don't allow dogs in the shop, they let me bring her in so I could pick up my glasses -- I was able to get my glasses without cooking the dog or risking my kitties turning into puppy chow!
I'll definitely be back.
