Just had the best experience ever at LensCrafters at the Valley West Mall in West Des Moines. Amy, Sara, and Tanya were amazingly patient, professional, and wonderful in helping me find and select just the right glasses. They were just as wonderful a week later when I came to get my new glasses. They made sure the new pair were adjusted perfectly to my imperfect face. I can’t say enough good things about these three professionals, or LensCrafters. They will definitely get my business in the future, and I’ll be sure to sing their praises to everyone I know!!!!

My 2nd time buying glasses here. Each time a great experience. Ian has helped me both times. He’s very personable and knowledgeable and a pleasure to deal with. If/when my prescription changes, I’ll be back!

I have enjoyed working with Ian Elliott over the past few years. As consistent with the quality of LensCrafters product line is the quality of the service I’ve received when visiting the store. All I mean all questions are addressed and answered professionally

Our salesperson was Andrew #745299. He is exceptional!! He took his time to explain different options for my new bifocals. He helped me pick out various options for my frames. He was so kind, knowledgeable, and friendly. Lenscrafters is very lucky to have such a dedicated and professional employee!!

Lens crafters has been my go to for years. Their eye clinic fixed a prescription that my old eye doctor had been messing up my whole life. Today I spoke with Brianna to order contacts and she was so helpful and kind. They have a great selection of frames as well. I've never had a bad experience here, their service is top notch every time!

Ian at Valley West is awesome! He is friendly, considerate, and knowledgeable. I tend to have problems with my glasses alignment due to the prescription and he always listens to resolve any issues. Sarah is also fantastic; I always try to visit the store when either or both of them are working.

I needed replacement lens and new frame. I couldn’t be more pleased with the attention that Tetiana and Sara gave me. There’s a reason that I continue to return to that LensCrafters because they work hard to take care of their patients and they do all they can to make sure the clients feel valued.

Last week I took my elderly mother to LensCrafters at Valley West Mall to pick out glasses. Ian was so patient and helpful. She left with two pair of glasses and one pair of sunglasses that she loves! Ian is the best at adjusting glasses and she is thrilled with her purchases. I can’t recommend Ian enough…he has a great attitude and is great at his job. We will be back to purchase glasses again in the future.

Received excellent customer service from Ian today at the Valley West Mall location! He was patient, knowledgeable, and thorough explaining charges and the details of selecting proper lenses. Thankful to have someone like Ian guide me through the process of selecting new glasses!

Great customer service! Sara and Ian were super helpful, I had a pair of frameless sunglasses that needed a screw, which I couldn’t find anywhere, they were able to fix right away. Will be in again when my husband needs new eyewear. Thank you so much!

I usually Never do reviews, but I just Had to. This is my first time getting glasses and I was So nervous. I had Heard about LensCrafters and decided- why not? When I walked Into the store I was Immediately greeted by everyone on the floor working. One in particular was Ian. Ian made sure to stay with me the entire time I was Shamelessly trying out every frame in the store (you have to clean them after you touch them because of Covid) and Ian didn’t complain once. He actually picked out quite a few frames for me. He also asked me what my hobbies were, what I did for work and my day to day life. He told me this would help determine what kind of lenses would work best. I truly Understood so much better what goes into picking out glasses! I finally Decided on a frame and then we went to a station and started to pick the lenses. I am an avid hiker and I am Always outside. Ian thought that transitions (the ones where they change into sunglasses) would be a good fit for me. The measurements and process was painless and I got to know how everything worked. I cannot Wait for my glasses to come in, they’re going to be amazing! I would 10/10 recommend Valley West Mall LensCrafters to my friends and family- and I would refer for them to talk with Ian. He was fantastic!

I went in to LensCrafters to have them adjust some glasses for me. I had purchased them online and did not purchase them through them. Mandy was so helpful and friendly about the whole thing. Took the time to fit them perfectly to my face, and clean them. Exceptional service. When I have need glasses with my Rx this year I will go to this location with their exceptional customer service.

What a great experience from start to finish. I think the difference at this location is how informative the team here is. Stephani helped me through the process with great recommendations. It felt like a very personable experience! There were Premium products here as well that I couldn't find any where else! This is my new eye care home.

Miranda and Ian were so courteous, patient, and helpful. Miranda took her time reviewing the options for my daughter’s glasses to make sure we got the best options, for the best price. I truly appreciate her cheerful, funny attitude while helping us choose a frame for my daughter. In addition to the time taken helping my daughter, she also helped me with a pair of glasses that I previously purchased from my their location. I spoke with Miranda about a defect on the lenses, I wanted to get an understanding of what was wrong with them and how to avoid it happening again. After looking them over and speaking with Ian (assistant manager), they agreed to replace my lenses free of charge!!! This level of customer service goes so far above anything I ever expected. I’ll be a LensCrafters customer for as long as they’ll have me! Thank you again for your help!

I was given excellent service on my visit to Lens Crafters. Employee, Ian, helped me pick out my glasses by seeing how they fit my face and the style that looked best. He also informed me of a certain kind of contacts that were perfect for those with astigmatism. He used them himself & it was a game changer! I also was able to get a sample of my RX for myself & they worked perfectly. It was the 2nd time in years I was able to see super clear with contacts. Thank U so much for excellent service, Ian.I’ll for sure be a repeat customer!

I had an excellent customer service experience when I picked out my new frames. Ian knew what frames would look good on my facial structure. He made my visit so pleasant and easy. I received them just a few days later which is very quick! I will never switch from Lens Crafters especially if Ian is working. Sara was excellent as well! Job well done!

Thank you Sara and Tetiana. You made the fitting for my Dads new glasses very informative for the type of lens that would work for him so he can start reading his books again. Thank you from both of us.Highly recommend them and Dr Todd Brown next door!

I was greeted by an employee Sarah and she directed me to where I might find frames of my size. She explained the benefits of the different types of lens available along with comparative prices. There was no pressure to select any particular product. She was cheerful and supportive. Thanks, Sarah.
