Pacific Eye Care

this place has an awesome selection if brand name frames at reasonable prices. they have great customer service and you get your glasses quickly! also, they took my insurance (north kitsap school. district) go check it out! best selection. around

I went here five years ago for an exam and swore I’d never be back. I convinced myself to give it another shot since they are a nearby preferred provider for my insurance. Greeted by curt, angry reception I proceeded to wait, and wait, in an examination room while the doctor had a lengthy personal conversation with his assistant. I tried asking questions about my current optical prescription, but was quickly dismissed, told it hadn’t changed and sent on my way so they could resume their infantile banter. New since I was last here, you have to checkout with reception, but are then forced to sit and wait to pickup your prescription in their optical store. After declining additional services and products I finally received a printout of my prescription. I took it to my optician and used it to order new lenses for my
frames and guess what? I discover the new lenses are miserable; completely unwearable. My optician measured the power/​axis in my old lenses and thinks he might understand the problem. He gives Pacific Eyecare a call. Turns out that in my chart, the doctor had attempted to copy over my prescription from 5 years ago, but transcribed a couple of the numbers wrong. I ended up paying $ 400 for worthless lenses. I will never return to this place. I am hoping it won’t be difficult to find a provider that will provide a true exam, not just copy down my old prescription, incorrectly, and call it a day. What a waste. Next on my list is a call to my insurance company re: their list of ‘preferred’ providers.
