Well since I have not posted in a while, I thought I would reiterate the fact that I love Beaumont Vision. Today I purchased my second pair of Andy Wolf frames.

Highly recommend.read moreread lessRobert R.This place is, hands-down the best optique in Portland. Dr. Lewis is friendly and thorough in his exams, and the staff is superb. The selection of frames is a cut above what you'll find anywhere else. Shenyah even found a stylish frame to fit my giant caveman head, which is no easy task. Above and beyond, from start to finish.

- They have always let us take stupid photos of ourselves while we buy framesread moreread lessErin M.Pros: Expert, professional, and trustworthy optometry service; Helpful and knowledgeable opticians; Friendly administrative/reception staff; Quality frames and lenses; Socially responsibleCons: Could provide better glasses fitting serviceOptometry: My wife and I have been going to see Dr. Lewis for 12 years and we have had nothing but positive experiences. Dr. Lewis is knowledgeable, experienced, and trustworthy. He's also a great communicator. He explains what's going on with your eyes in plain English and is always willing to answer any questions you might have. We've also seen Dr. Pajot on different occasions and she is also very competent, knowledgeable, and friendly. She was especially helpful explaining color blindness to my young son.Optician Services: The frames are a bit on the expensive side, but I've learned that it's because they don't source frames from the Luxottica conglomerate. This is why I included "socially responsible" above. They're opticians have educated me on this (see: youtube.com/watch?v=gDdq…). They also use high quality lens manufacturers like Zeiss, which is especially important if you have a difficult prescription. The opticians here are very helpful in breaking down the costs of lens features and what insurance will cover. I've also never felt pressured to add on lens features that I didn't want to pay for. The ONLY issue I've had is with getting my glasses fitted for comfort and have gone elsewhere to get my frames adjusted when needed. That said, you will be properly measured to ensure that the lens is set up in the frame properly in relation to your eye.Administration/Reception: The reception staff are friendly and helpful. Scheduling appointments has never been an issue. I always get reminders via post card and my appointments are confirmed by phone. I receive the confirmations in time to cancel or reschedule the appointment if needed (they have a 24 hour cancellation policy like most places). They have also been very helpful and accommodating in getting summary statements for HSA/FSA.I've been going to optometrists for over 30 years and have worn glasses and contact lenses my entire adult life. I've also recently had Lasik. I trust Beaumont Vision and would highly recommend their service.read moreread lessKei I.Dr. Lewis provides the most thorough eye exam I've ever had in my 56 years.

- I have very complicated eyes and I am a very picky person which adds up to a high risk for a bad outcome for a pair of frames and lenses that I really like. Not only do I wear progressive lenses but I have lots of astigmatism and a huge prism problem and I am night-blind to boot. I have been coming to Beaumont Vision for frames and lenses and frames for about 6 years and they have consistently gone above and beyond to ensure that I can see well and that I look good while I am wearing my glasses! This last time around the lens manufacturers made mistakes on my lenses and the folks at Beaumont worked quickly to correct the problem with excellent results. Although all of the staff there are very competent, Shenyah Webb is the go-to person there for a complex prescriptions that need taste and finesse in how to get that prescription translated into great lenses and fashionable frames.read moreread lessSlo F.I have been going to Dr. Lewis for my eye care since 2007, when my eyesight changed for the first time.

The high magnification and sharp resolution of our state-of-the-art digital retinal imaging help our doctors detect early warning signs of issues that could be strictly vision-related (such as macular degeneration) or conditions that could affect your whole body (such as diabetes and high blood pressure).
We recommend an evaluation of the retina with each comprehensive eye exam.
