Walmart Vision Center

«Great Service and Education at Walmart Vision Center, Mohegan Lake»
I’ve always considered myself to be one of those savvy shoppers… so I thought.
I purchased a pair of expensive progressive glasses from a Manhattan store (Towne Optical, 551 Fifth Ave, NYC), out-​of-​pocket was over $ 500.
I had such a hard time using the glasses for reading books or the desktop computer that I went back to the store. They had the lens changed but still I had problems.
I went back and they said that they didn’t know what the problem was. This is a store with a full service doctor’s office.

I ended up wearing my old glasses for reading.
After 2 months, my husband convinced me to go to Walmart Vision Center.
After 5 minutes with Paul M., an actual optician, he was able to tell me the problem was that the frame did not fit me and is sitting too low on my nose. He diagnosed the problem of the distance prescription being too low (because of the style of the frames) and thus affecting my reading prescription!!!
Of course, Towne Optical wouldn’t want to tell me that because their main concern was to sell frames.
What a pleasure to buy a product from people who cares.
By the way, I am writing this review on my IPhone with my new Walmart glasses on — didn’t have to take them off!
Thank you Paul and Walmart Vision Center for making my day to day life better!!!
