Book through Walmart’s vision center booking online or by calling your store’s vision center directly. The vision center keeps its own hours, shorter than the store’s, and an eye exam is by appointment rather than walk in at most locations.

By appointment, on hours shorter than the store’s.

How to book

1Find your store’s vision center. Through Walmart’s store locator, which lists departments separately.
2Book online or call the center directly. The vision center number rather than the general store line.
3Check whether an optometrist is on site that day. Availability varies by location and day, which is the main constraint.
4Ask what to bring. Including whether your vision insurance is accepted there.

Why the hours differ

An eye exam needs a licensed optometrist present, and in many locations the optometrist is independent rather than store staff. That is why vision center hours are shorter than the store’s and why they vary more between locations.

Glasses adjustment or repairUsually walk in during center hours

Walmart’s store locator lists vision center hours separately from store hours, which is the detail worth checking before a trip.
