I recently discovered that I need to wear glasses, after
many years of having great eye sight. You can imagine that finding the perfect
glasses can be a difficult task for someone who’s never experienced
wearing/using them. Initially, I went to multiple eye glass stores but I didn't find the glasses that were fit for me. After nearly giving up, I decided to give
Costco a try, mainly because a few of my family members had purchased their
glasses from Costco and were pleased with the product. At first, I wasn't convinced that I would find a “stylish” pair of glasses at Costco, but I was
surprised to find exactly what I was looking for as soon as I laid my eyes on
their vast collection of glasses. Right away I was greeted by a very nice lady
who took my measurements and rung me up. She was very helpful with the information
that I needed and she patiently waited for me to finish when I asked her if I
could take a picture of my glasses to show all my family and friends. After I purchased my glasses, I anxiously
wanted to wear them right away but the lady mentioned that they would have to
be at the lab for about a week in order to customize my lenses. Sure enough, I
got a phone call from Costco, no longer than a week later, saying that my
glasses were ready. After I tried them on, I was very pleased with how well I
could see in them but the longer I wore them, I started having a few
complications. The Lady had mentioned that I could always take my glasses back,
and they would fix it free of charge, so that’s exactly what I did. When I took
them back, I approached another lady that worked there, and I explained to her
exactly what was bothering me, as she carefully listened. She apologized that I
was having issues with my glasses and she took them to send it back to the lab.
Unfortunately, I kept having difficulties with adjusting to my new glasses, and
I had to send my them back multiple times, but each time they changed my lens
without charging me and they were very understanding about my complaints. Later
I found out that due to my astigmatism, I wasn't able to adjust to the glare
free coating that Costco uses on their glasses. Although my experience with
wearing glasses for the first time wasn't exactly delightful, I was very
pleased with Costco’s customer service.
