Eyewear And Opticians near Amherst

“After YEARs of getting glasses from online stores like Warby and Zenni (and having MIGRAINES the entire time), I finally went to this brick and mortar independent shop and I'm SO GLAD I did.

I had optical migraines for TWO YEARS every single day because the online glasses makers weren't getting my prism specifications correct – even though I'd uploaded my prescription properly and paid extra for the prism.

The glasses I got from Amherst Optical were 3x more expensive but well worth every penny. I got my first pair here two years ago and my migraines have completely gone away. The glasses are also way more durable. I just bought my second pair here after two years of wearing that first pair.

The customer service is AMAZING. They're so kind and explain absolutely everything so you know what you're getting, what you need, and why you might have been struggling with whatever you had before.

The absolute best part of this was that I didn't really have to do any decision making. The first pair of frames they picked for me were PERFECT and honestly not a style I'd have ever picked out for myself. They look SO GOOD on me, I just got the exact some ones for my second pair. I love not having to make a ton of choices and wondering if they'll look good or waiting for try on pairs in the mail, etc.

They're super quick, too. I got my new glasses in just 4 days each time.

Anyway, TL;DR: I 10/10 recommend Amherst Optical and I will probably get my glasses here for the rest of my life. They're well worth it.“

“Like this place its a good eye place like comming there there good place too go.happy.there“

“Amazing, fast, friendly and affordable service. Our son's glasses needed to be replaced when they broke and we were in the area. New lenses in less than 45 minutes for a third the price of the chain down the road who couldn't help us without a new eye exam. Thank you!!“

“Northampton Vision Specialists are professional, friendly, and kind. This is the right place for my Multi Sensory Therapy and now my Eye Convergence Therapy. I am so thankful for all they have provided.“

“Let me start off by saying that this was one of the best experiences with an eye care place I've ever had. I have anxiety with health professionals since it's always about money or they just tend to not listen. I went to another place about two years ago and they blamed the medication I was on for my bad eye sight and belchertown eye care immediately went through every OTHER reason why I could be lacking.They called me the day before reminding me of my appointment. I got in almost a week 1/2 out which Is amazing considering it takes months at other places. The lady at the front desk was very attentive, told me that it would be $110 for the exam BUT insurance will cover an amount of it I would just have it sent out. (she gave me a letter and all to send it out) As well as she measured where my eyes and ears sit so its comfortable. When I paid I left a deposit for my glasses (I was given option) and she showed the price break down.Sadly, I do not remember her name but the lady who did my eye exam was TOP tier, she worked for surgeons before and was checking for EVERYTHING when I say everything I mean everything. She was very educated and would ask if I wanted to see what the pictures and devices were doing. They have brand new technology so she explained what each one does now and any questions were answered immediately.PLEASE go they're amazing <3“

“Great experience with my eye exam. The staff was friendly, the doctor was very professional, and everything was explained clearly. The exam was quick and thorough. Highly recommend! Dr Vardiman was excellent!“
