“Office is inside the mall. Clean office. Front staff is not overly friendly but nice enough. Dr was extremely open and chatty. He explained all of the procedures really well which is something I don’t find happens often, So that was refreshing. He didn’t push purchasing glasses or contacts which was ALSO refreshing. He offers the glaucoma test without dilating drops (upcharge of $50 but worth it). The appt was incredibly efficient, fast, and thorough. My ONLY (mild) complaint was that lidocaine drops were not given before the test where the probe touches ur eye which stung a bit. He holds the green light up to ur eye and says to look at light. It flashes and then a slight burn(found it was the probe touching but you don’t know a probe comes out) I would still come back to see this dr though. I don’t have insurance- Total visit for health check/vision check of my eyes was under $150. Another positive! ”
