I received a JCPenney gift card for the purpose of this review.
Last Summer our oldest daughter spent a lot of time with her nose in a Percy Jackson book. She was also complaining about the headaches she was getting from reading. A quick trip to the Optometrist determined that she needed reading glasses to support her developing eye muscles.
Fast forward to this year and Miss K was due for another checkup. My husband and I were a little concerned about the cost because we no longer have optical coverage on our health insurance policy.
Thankfully JCPenny Optical is offering an awesome Back to School promotion.
Get a Complete pair of Kids’ designer eyeglasses for $29.99!
The offer runs through Sept 15 2014 and includes:
- Any kids frame up to $120
- FREE impact and 1scratch-resistant polycarbonate lenses
- FREE UV protection
- FREE eyeglass protection plan for any school-aged child 16 & under
This price does not include the price of an eye exam. Without Optical insurance, you will pay $40 for the exam. This half the amount several other Opticians in my area had quoted me when I called around. If you have Optical coverage then check with your local JCPenny Optical, to see if you have one of the thousand of plans, they accept.
As far as the exam went I only have positive things to say! Dr W is clearly very experienced with kids' eye exams. He was very encouraging and made Miss K feel at ease right away. I hadn't intended on having our 4-year-old checked, but Dr W took the time to examine her eyes too. Mini Piwi was super excited to get to sit in the 'astronaut seat' just like her big sis!
After the exam, the kids were itching to try on frames! Mini Piwi didn't need glasses this year, but she wanted to try on a pair (or five). Miss K eventually found the 'perfect' pair.
If your children need some new glasses then remember to take advantage of this promotion before September 15. You can your nearest JCPenny Optical branch near you with their store locator.
