I have always used the Owensboro location, so I was very pleased to find out they had one in Henders... Show Moreon. This group has always done a great job of ensuring your glasses fit well, and that the prescription is correct. They always have an excellent selection of frames, and they are very reasonably priced. They do a good job of getting you in, and getting you out. They will call you when your glasses are ready so you don’t have to worry about that. And I found that usually they come in ahead of schedule. All in all it’s a great place to get your eyes checked, and get those glasses updated.
