EXCELLENT Based on 34 reviews Posted on Hannah ReyesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I came in today with broken frames and my glasses were fixed within minutes. The young man working was extremely personable and helpful. They are affordable and their staff goes above and beyond to make sure you are taken care of. I would highly recommend this establishment for all of your eye care needs.Posted on Tonya McMichaelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very pleasant experience. Everyone there was genuibely interested in getting us the best help. We esp loved how they helped to choose our frames...they were very sweet and honest with ea pair that our family woyld try. They really have an "eye" for what would best "frame" your face (wow, I'm very punny tonight). Side note: they are out of network. Also, be sure to have them break down your out of pocket cost before buying. I incurred more costs than what is merely tagged on the glasses. Anyways, check them out!Posted on Salvation_or_DemiseTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing people, and amazing servicePosted on Brandi BarrickTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent business! Initially we bought my 2 year old’s first pair of glasses here. I returned to when it was time to purchase mine. My husband has also purchased glasses here. Wonderful experience 3 separate times!Posted on DAVID STARKEYTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thanks for job well done.Posted on Myranda JTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The only place I'll go to for my glasses! I've been going for 3 years and needed an emergency replacement for my glasses twice and they've always gotten me in a new pair right away. Highly recommend going there for your family!Posted on Kimberly ApplewhiteTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wonderful Family Owed Business !!!! I felt so welcomed and already apart of the family. In my first visit!Posted on William MarineTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A family owned business that offers great products and wonderful service. I bought a pair of s-frame Oakley sunglasses from them and really appreciated the time they took to inform me of the importance of choosing a polarized set of lens.Posted on Toni RoumainTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Posted on Nick BTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After having a not so great experience at a different Eyewear store, it was recommended i come to The Spectacle by a friend. It was a great recommendation that I want to pass on. Very cool place, extremely helpful staff. Great selection and they were able to help me while I waited. Its not often you find places with great products and even better staff, but this place is one. They will treat you right and you will leave happy. 🤙

I am truly pleased with my entire experience at The Spectacle! My eye exam with Dr. Vaughan was thorough and she took time to answer all my questions. The staff... read more is so friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. I didn’t feel rushed, even after trying on 50 different frames, to pick out my new pair. Huge thanks to Mr. Shawn, who spent extra time and worked after hours to perfect my new prescription lens! It is absolutely refreshing to find a place so dedicated to satisfying each and every person who walks in their door. You wont find a business more committed to personalizing your experience beyond expectation!

I went to the spectacle yesterday with my prescription
I have never been to a more inviting business. Both tracy and Daniel gave me honest opinions for my new... read more glasses and we all got a good laugh at some of my choices. I felt like I was with friends trying on glasses.
We landed in a pair and we sat down and tracy asked me what I wanted for my lenses. We chatted at length about what would be best for me.
I left there feeling so blessed that I have found a place I felt like they really cared about getting me in glasses that worked for me and not just filling the prescription.If you wear glasses everyday
Go see them and you will leave there feeling fabulous. Not to mention their prices are amazing!!!
Thank you for making me feel like a queen 👸🏻

I won a contest with them for a free pair of glasses from their own line (frames and lenses) I went with hopes of getting a pair of sunglasses since... read more my lenses and frames were fairly new and from them already and I’ve never owned prescription sunglasses! They were 100% on board with this so we picked a frame and ordered. When I went to pick them up I was so mad at myself bc I realized I forgot to get the mirror tint added on them!! I loved them but just knew I would love them even more with the tint. Well they had a little issue when cutting the lenses, so they wanted to re order a new lens bc it just didn’t look “perfect” for them and since we were ordering a new set we could add the mirror tint!! I’m in love with my new sunglasses and could not be more pleased with the customer service!!

My family went in yesterday to get our annual eye exam with Dr. Vaughan, which is always... read more a pleasant experience. Then it was time to pick out new frames, which takes awhile for my daughter. The staff were so nice and patient with us. Tracey provide her honest opinion which was greatly appreciated. With their help we finally decided on a pair of Michael Kors for my daughter and I selected a pair of Kate Spade. We even were able to wait for our prescriptions and got our glasses within an hour. I would definitely recommend The Spectacle to anyone in need of an eye exam and/or glasses. Thank you Tracey, Shawn and Dr. Vaughan, you are the BEST!
