The only friendly person that works there is the guy with the glasses. The lady with the curly hair who I believe is a manager is very rude and inconsiderate.

Next time I will go to America's Best.
estimated Delivery of contact lens was wrong. Then no one called me when were ready. Then the wrong lenses were sent for left eye. They should have been momvision: for reading not distance. So now I have to wait another long week. I found contacts $120 cheaper online. They did match prices. This is the only reason I am giving two stars. I would NOT recommend.
