“Costco Vision Center in Spartanburg is 2nd to None! Melinda treated me and my wife like royalty throughout the entire process and everything went smooth. Thank you for your professionalism and service!🙂”
— bstoddardphoto Brent Stoddard★★★★★
“Melinda was so nice & patient with us when my hubby & I came in for new lenses for his glasses. She took her time & helped us get the best price. Very nice lady! We also enjoy seeing Judy when she's there. Known her for years. Always quick to joke around but knows her stuff too!”
— Debbie Forant★★★★★
“Small but great selection of frames for very reasonable prices. Insurance doesn't typically cover exams here but there usually isn't a problem getting the glasses themselves. Customer service is always top notch and it usually only takes about a week from when you order for the glasses to come in.”
— katiakaterina★★★★★
