I took my daughter to get an exam and glasses. She picked out about 6 frames that she liked prior to going in for the exam. After the exam it was time to pick a pair of frames. The woman, even though we had ALREADY picked 6 fairly priced frames, insisted on helping her find more. I was not paying much attention because I was looking at frames too, but my daughter liked a pair that she handed her a lot. We sat down to start the process and I grabbed the frames to look at them and saw that they were Saint Laurent. I immediately looked at the price knowing they were designer and they were over $500! My daughter was so disappointed when I told her that they were just too expensive. I told the woman that she should ask the parents what price range they want to stay within. She told me basically that it was up to the parents to make the decision of whether or not that they can get them. What a horrible thing to put a child and parent through. Come find out she was handing her ALL expensive designer frames. Keep in mind my daughter had previously picked out at least 6 frames. I will not be back for their shady sales practices alone.

Honestly shocked at the price gouging. I went in for new glasses, and I felt the price was steep despite having great vision insurance. I ended up searching and the persol frames I ordered were $335 on persols website versus the pearl vision retail charge of $429 for the exact frames. I called them and all they said was they don't price match and their prices are their prices. They would not share why the price was $100 more than the manufacturer.

Was absolutely impressed with the service they provided for my mom. Nice friendly people, Dr. Jill was amazing with the exam - very thorough. We will be returning for sure.
