Other places we went to in the past was $49.00 for exam and free print out of prescrption. I guess thats why they say Walmart is cheap. I will say there glasses were a little cheaper.

Honestly don't see why it's an extra $20, since my vision is identical for both scenarios. I think it's just a gimmick to get more money. I was NOT impressed with the doctor at all, by the way.

Their cheapest lenses are plastic (as expected) for only $30. The $30 lenses have no coatings on them. They charge an extra $10 for UV coating and $35 for anti-reflective coating.
They also offer the polycarbonate lenses (impact resistant and lighter) with UV coating, scratch resistant coating, and anti-reflective coating for $118.

I paid a total of $216, which is a lot less then Ihave paid in many years. They were ready in 5 days. I used no coupons or discounts. The salesassociate was friendly, helpful, and informative. I love the glasses and will definitely buy from them again.

No more detail than that. I can't believe any glasses would cost that much!! And that's with insurance paying $100.00 dollars!
