Such a great place for an eye exam and glasses. The exam was thorough. The optometrist listened to my concerns. I learned a few things. Jeff does a great job of helping you choose frames that work with your prescription and face. Great professionals.

About a month ago I went into the Dresher Eye store and to date I have not received my glasses.

And that was over a week ago.

They just don't get it. One bit. Whatsoever. I went in and asked to try on some WileyX goggles. Jeffrey (who is the owner, btw) hands me a pair of Oakleys. After asking about WileyX again, he asks about my prescription. I give it to him and he goes into the back, comes out and gives me a quote for the Oakley with 2 different lenses (one clear, one sunglasses). I tell him I was interested in Transitions (for those who don't know - they're lenses that turn dark in sunlight), not two separate sets of lenses and that I'm interested in the Wileys not the Oakleys. He goes in the
