I have had mixed experiences at Stanton Optical. I went in looking for a new pair of glasses and was excited about their buy one pair, get the other pair free deal.
I was pretty impressed with their selection of glasses. While I thought some appeared cheap, there were also some that seemed of better quality. For my second pair I got sunglasses. I was not impressed with their sunglasses selection, but did manage to find a pair.
The gentleman that helped me was very helpful and professional. He wasn't pushy about whether or not I wanted the more expensive choices for lens, which I always appreciate. I was a little surprised at how fast things added up though. You think it won't be much more than the most expensive pair of glasses you chose, but there are a lot of random charges on top of the frames and lenses. In the end though, I still managed to get two nice pairs of glasses for a fairly reasonable price.
The business doesn't always seem to have enough staff on hand. When I went in to pick up my glasses, there were a lot of customers and not enough workers. People were getting frustrated and it seemed like the staff were stressed. In the end, I waited at least half an hour just to pick up my glasses to then find out that they didn't have my sunglasses ready yet, even though I'd received a phone call saying they were ready. The employee that helped me was very kind, but it was frustrating. I ended up having to come back when the other pair was ready.
All in all, not a bad place, but they have things they can improve on. Different times of day, especially the weekends are very busy so expect to wait.
