“Rick was awesome, knowledgeable and patient.
Made buying glasses easy. Thanks Rick!“

“Easy to schedule by phone or online. Quick and efficient visit. They noted my medical insurance would now pick up part of the cost of the exam, which saved me over 50% on this visit. Very pleased with my experience here. I will continue to return.“

“I recently switched optometrists and found Expert Family Care from a recommendation. It was like night and day. My only regret is that I didn't find this practice sooner. Efficient, friendly, and clearly on top of their game. Highly recommend.“

“I got the BEST eye exam at LensCrafters. Dr. Gianfriddo and her technician Ivett were VERY thorough and could not have been nicer. They both explained all the tests they were conducting and I felt very taken care of. Highly recommend“

“Our experience with Advanced Eye Care has taken us to a place that we never thought we would be. Our son, who is on the autism spectrum, was diagnosed with keratoconus in 2022, had corneal cross linking surgery in 2023, and then we looked for help with vision correction.

Then we found Dr Levine at Advanced Eye Care. He carefully explained to us how scleral contact lenses work and how "just the right fit" was very important, that it might take several trips to get that. After a few trips we found that perfect fit.
Because our son has autism and the fact that these scleral lens are a bit tricky to put in, we feared that this would be problematic. But, never fear, Karlee was with us all the way. She was very very patient and eventually got those contacts in our son's eyes.

We highly recommend Advanced Eye Care and Dr Levine {and Karlee} for scleral lenses. Their patience and professionalism is simply amazing. They brought vision back to our son. They continue to support us as our son enjoys renewed vision that we weren't sure was possible.“

“Great place to go for optical! Everyone there is very friendly, very helpful, and also professional!“

“My first time at Antioch Eye Care and I was blown away!! Such friendly, efficient, and helpful staff!! I’ve never been in and out of a comprehensive eye exam and picking out new glasses so quickly!! Dr Philip put me right at ease. She was kind and compassionate and very efficient! So glad I found Antioch Eye Care“

“Definitely the best eye care in the area. But be cautious—the staff at the front desk can be, to put it mildly, quite unprofessional. I didn’t expect such a hostile and aggressive reaction from the desk employee when I simply expressed my desire to pay by card instead of using my health insurance. The moment my request broke her usual routine, she immediately raised her voice. In a raised tone, she started to pry into unnecessary details about my insurance, even though I repeatedly stated that I would be paying with a card.

When the situation became unbearable for me — and clearly uncomfortable for those around — the employee's aggressive outburst was interrupted by another staff member, who resolved the issue with a single sentence: "He’s paying by card." After that, the front desk employee fell silent, but she was far from calm. She started making faces and rolling her eyes, like a childish character in a bad comedy.

Later, when I spoke to the other staff members, who were all caring, attentive, and professional, I was reassured in my belief that the front desk employee had behaved completely inappropriately. I hope no other visitors will have to become the next victim of her tantrum.“

“Went into the Target Optical and had the pleasure of Alex L helping me out. I had an eye exam yesterday at a different vision place. Walked out with just my prescription after feeling that I was just a number to them & them only wanting to make a sale. Alex was so kind and walked through everything with me. He made me feel like my business was very appreciated!! They have a great selection of frames!!! I will definitely recommend Target Optical to my family & friends. Go see Alex!!!“

“Dr. Higgins is the absolute best, very kind and helpful. My family has been visiting for eye checkup for many years, will continue to visit. Office staff are also very helpful and kindhearted.“

“Extremely friendly staff. The doc/staff answered all of my questions and concerns. I felt very welcomed from the moment I step inside.“

“I love both Dr. Yang and her husband. Both phenomenal optometrists. I have been going to both of them for many years as well as my family. It's always a pleasure visit with them.“

“I will only see Dr Troutman, he truely cares about his patients. He takes his time to get it right. His assistant Tina has been there a long time, she helped me find glasses I truely love. I am very indecisive and she was very patient with me. Felt happy leaving know I received the Best Care! I highly recommend you giving them a try! Donna“

“Comparing Vision Works to Walmart: Summary: Walmart is MUCH cheaper for the same quality of daily contacts, much better customer service as well. Not sure what Vision Works is doing wrong, but they seem kinda money hungry to me. How I decided this: I used to order contacts at Vision Works in Gurnee Mills, but I had forgotten to get a new prescription done with them before leaving for college. The town my college is in does not have a Vision Works, so I decided to get it done at the Walmart Vision Center. Little did I know that was a good decision. I got the prescription done and got the free trial contacts, but never got around to ordering contacts. When I got back home in Gurnee, I tried to fax over my prescription to Vision Works and the woman that was helping me at VW was a little rude and hard to approach, but the lady on the phone doing the fax was very helpful. When the prescription went through, I was told that I could not order contacts from VW because the brand I had gotten at Walmart was not carried there. This did not really make sense to me because I thought it was only the prescription they needed, not the brand. So, I decided to go over to the Walmart in Gurnee to order from them, and the contacts not only came in 4 days, they cost $51 cheaper for the same 90 day daily contacts I would've gotten at VW. VW contacts usually come in after a week and a half or so. Wearing the contacts daily, I have not noticed any difference from the brand I used to get at VW. Now my whole family is switching over from VW to Walmart. Plus, the staff at both my college town and Gurnee were nothing but nice to me. At Walmart I get called Miss (insert last name), while at Vision Works they act like they don't even remember me. Overall great experience.“

“I'm a big fan of Dr. Gandolfi. I'm a lesser fan of MyEyeDr franchise. Their website requires a 4-factor authentication every time you log in. Nearly all inbound phone calls are deflected back to this website which feels like was built by an ambitious IT intern who skipped the class on end user experience.“

“I really like the staff here; they are super helpful and work with you through insurance challenges. Great people and service.“

“I’ve been getting my eyes checked here at Lake Zurich EyeCare for 4 years. The staff has been really great, including the doctor. They are kind and respectful, always talking to me like a normal valued person. I appreciate their high level of skill in examining, caring for and explaining how I can help in taking care of my vision. An added benefit, I’ve never had a long wait before getting to see the doctor! Thank you!“

“All of the staff members were very considerate and extremely helpful. Dr. Lewinson was super nice, and Aly was excellent and helped me choose the perfect glasses.“

“This is the second time I have gone to this location Mundelein. From the accurate and easy testing to picking my glasses it was an easy going experience. Nedie was extremely knowledgeable, helpful and pleasant. Thank you Nedie and Dr.Yang. I am extremely happy with my new glasses.“
