My wife had a vision issue that turned out to be a vitreous detachment in one eye. The office did a comprehensive exam and told us to return in a month.i came to the appointment with my wife who was still having vision problems in the one eye. We were told that this was normal and the symptoms would subside. I immediately made another appointment with another optometrist and discovered that my wife has glaucoma in the one eye and is being treated but some damage has already occurred. Not a place for anything other than glasses from my experience.
Awesome doctors, wonderful staff & the coolest manager! The office is short handed right now, as is everywhere during these times. Despite the staffing issues, the employees remain helpful, patient, & accommodating. Quality eyewear at very competitive pricing. You won't find better vision care anywhere in the area!
WOW - all I can say is that I have been patient there for 20 years and things have really gone south.I tried to schedule an eye exam in 2020 with dr achdale but he was booked solid for months (thanks covid) so I saw another doctor at the north office. good exam but bad Rx! I got my glasses with the new Rx and fell twice before realizing it was the glasses!. So back I went - I needed glasses - no appts were available so I asked them to just put my previous Rx back in.All good until I went back to have my sunglass lenses put in. They used a lab - and the lab never seemed to get it right. There were distortions and they were worthless to wear. After 3 failures (!) and no sunglasses all summer, It was recommended I see Dr Archdale for a new Rx which I did.He was pretty annoyed that I had used a prior Rx for the sunglasses and that there had been so much trouble with them. His attitude made me feel like an errant child. Not his usual self.But I got a new Rx in September 2021 from that visit and just went in to have that Rx put in my regular glasses.I was told by Renee' that the manager was out that day but I had cost them a lot of money with my sunglass issue and that I should come and pick up my frames - they no longer wanted me as a patient.WOW. well, ok, but other people should know - if there are any issues with your glasses, they just want you gone. Such a change.
