Campus Optical

This little shop tucked into a building on the campus was exactly what I needed. I’m not a college student, I’m not insured, and I absolutely despise the unethical bullsh*t that goes on at 80% of optical shops (as in hidden fees, charges for «contact fittings,» and generally overpriced service and products).
This place was free of all that nonsense and was completely upfront about costs so you get exactly what you expect. My prescription was drawn up quickly for both glasses and contacts, and I came in for a follow up appointment (my toric lenses are a little unusual). And, for all of this, the charge was less than $ 100. And that’s without insurance.
They also have a great shop, good prices on contact lenses, and tons of frames to look at. I really can’t recommend them more. You’d be a fool to go to any other shop in town and fork over hundreds for worse service and long waits.
