National Vision has expanded into Springfield and opened an America’s Best Contacts & Eyeglasses.

The contacts and eyeglasses store is located at 1624 N. Bechtle Ave. in Springfield. Residents can get a free eye exam by a professional optometrist and two pairs of eyeglasses for $69.95. In addition, the store is also equipped with state-of-the-art optometry equipment to ensure customers get the best eye care available, a statement from America’s Best Contacts & Eyeglasses.

The statement goes on to say that eye exams, beyond providing prescriptions for eyeglasses and contact lens, can detect hundreds of potential health concerns.

“By offering eye exams and a huge selection of frames at a low price, many of Springfield’s residents that previously could not afford vision care now have the opportunity to see and improve their optical health,” the statement said.

Prior to the location opening on North Bechtle Avenue, the closest America’s Best was located in Dayton on Wilmington Pike.
