“Are you looking for an exceptional eye doctor and care team?? Well VisionMakers in Kettering, OH is the place to go. In short summary of my visit.. Service was outstanding from the minute I got there to the time I left. All those smiles I received along the way certainly gave me such a warm welcoming feeling. The place was clean as a whistle too. Everyone was very professional. Staff seemed to genuinely care about their job and went above and beyond to meet my needs in getting new glasses. Never did I feel rushed. I too, was so impressed with Dr. Angel Mercado who examined my eyes. I felt confidence in his knowledge and expertise to come up with the perfect prescription for my eyes. I truly look forward to getting two new awesome pair of glasses!! The only down fall was….boy they had such a vast array designer glasses to chose from. ??. Good luck with that one. I assure you, if you need a eye doctor and new glasses this is the place to go. You will not be let down.”

About Dr. Angel Mercado

Eddie Mercado, O.D. received his Doctor of Optometry from The Ohio State University College of Optometry in 1998. He earned his undergraduate degree in Pre-Med Studies from Ohio Northern University in 1995. Growing up with moderately high nearsightedness, Dr. Mercado was introduced to optometry at a very young age. He was intrigued by the examination and amazed at how well glasses and contacts allowed him to see. Dr. Mercado says that being an optometrist enables him to create many times every day that same feeling he had when he could finally see more clearly. Dr. Mercado is an active member of the American Optometric Association, Ohio Optometric Association, and Miami Valley Society of Optometrists. He and his wife, Tammy, have three active children. In his free time, Dr. Mercado enjoys watching all his children's activities and participating in local triathlon events.

Dr Angel Mercado and staff were very professional and welcoming. This was my 1st time coming to Visionmakers and they were great. I felt like I had already been there several times. It was an easy check in and exam. Thank you so much Visionmakers!

I love going to this office. Especially as an established patient, the service is quick but thorough: the entire appointment, ordering contacts, and everything was done within 15 minutes.

The “floating supervisor” (didn’t catch her name) is how I’ll address her. She was brilliant! I saw her throughout my experience . . . kind of like an unseen guide. Scant wait time, and smooth layout in lobby functional and yet homey. Leona was outstanding! She is so personable explained everything. Most importantly she was not embarrassed to ask for assistance in front of the me (the customer). This down-to-Earth personality made her welcoming. Yes, I'll be back and Vision Makers is sole source for me.

Picking out frames is always the hardest part. Sherry, store associate, helped me pick the perfect frame that fit my face. She gave me her honest opinion on about 8 different frames. I was there by myself, so it was nice to have a second opinion. And, no, the frames were not the most expensive. Matter of fact, it happened to be the cheapest one. BONUS!! Doctor was friendly and very efficient. He listened to my concerns and made sure I had the right prescription. I highly recommend VisionMakers in Kettering for quality service at very reasonable prices.

I would 100% go back and recommend to a friend! The staff was all so kind and considerate. Kate was a delight and was extremely helpful in my glasses choosing process.
