Dr. Roshandel-Keovan was super kind and helpful! She made sure I really understood rather than just giving me a prescription.
Verified patient
Great facility with very friendly staff...first time visiting an eye doctor since I was a child (I’m 28 now). Found out I needed glasses for my astigmatism, which I had no idea I had. Anyways, I was helped with picking out a pair of flames for about 30 minutes or so as I have never worn glasses before and since I’m gonna be wearing glasses full time now I definitely needed help finding a frame that would suit my face. They were extremely helpful finding some frames for me. They have quite a selection from basic cheap frames to designer Gucci frames.

Dr. Golie and her staff were AMAZING. Looking forward to future visits, and would HIGHLY recommend to my friends and family.
Visit was great as always. Always feels like coming to visit family. Dr. answers all questions and is great with kids!
The office was clean and welcoming, and the doctor couldn't have been friendlier or more thorough. Great experience!
This was a great experience, and one of the most thorough eye exams I have done. I would recommend to anyone.

She's wonderful and thorough. Best eye Doc I've had in Chicago.
Verified patient
she is weary of medications and i felt that she was trying to convince me to try and go off my medications (with monitoring from my dr and safely of course). she has a very holistic approach, not quite for me.
Dr. Roshandel-Keovan was super kind and helpful! She made sure I really understood rather than just giving me a prescription.

Super friendly and excited to help
Verified patient
I liked her. Seemed to do a thorough exam. Office is nice. Wait time was okay. I recommend her. Why is “LGBTQ friendly” a question? Why is this everywhere now? When I was young there were two genders and no one had a problem with that or was confused about it. Now there are supposedly more than 100. Makes no sense to me.
Verified patient
She is knowledgeable, nice, and good at her job, but always tries to up-sell me. I've told her my financial circumstances but she still pushes the store's items that are 3x the cost at pharmacies, instead of suggesting affordable options. I wish she met me where I was at, and didn't just brush it off and say she didn't know the cost of their own brand. They say they match 1800contacts but they don't accept insurance if they meet that amount, which means they don't actually match. I always feel rushed and if I need another procedure or test, I'm rescheduled to come back weeks later, even if it ultimately only takes 5-10 minutes.
I would never recommend anyone go here. They were constantly trying to upsell me on everything - products, tests, and glasses. It felt extremely unprofessional, as the doctor was insistent upon selling me her OWN BRAND of eye cleanser and drops. I felt like I was talking to a car salesman. I have major concerns about the ethics of this practice, and I will not be returning as they tried ti charge me extra to disclose my pupillary distance, which they already have on file in their system. Do not go here.
Verified patient
Roshandel was very professional she answered all my questions. Roshandel gave great advice on how to better take care of eyes. Roshandel personality was very warming it made things easier to share. Will be coming back in the future.
Verified patient
She was heavily pushing supplements that I found out later she herself makes. So unprofessional and trying to give me expensive snake-oils to cure my real medical issues. Talked very fast and was exptremely pushy with these products giving no other alternatives. It was a terrible experience. I just wanted my eyes checked and to get a prescription and real medical treatment. If you're into unfounded holistic, expensive placebos, go here. I believe her prescription and findings were real, but if you want true solutions this is not the place. Huge ethical issues with this person.
So so so very smart and so fun and nice! Very patient and understanding, clearly explains everything going on and is more than willing to work with you and accommodate.
Verified patient
Doctor was very informative and consultative. We talked about products I'm using in and around my eyes (makeup and remover) which had never been brought up with my previous doctor. Overall great experience, and would recommend.

It was awesome
Verified patient
Amazing office with very friendly staff.
Verified patient
I walked in for my appointment and it took for the older gentlemen to tell the young lady to acknowledge me before she took care of me. But the rest of the staff was extremely nice. The doctor was really sweet and attentive and very informative. Would definitely recommend others to this location.
Dr. G was able to quickly diagnose my medical issue and put me on an effective treatment. She was very knowledgeable and explained what to expect over the course of the treatment, helping to allay any fears and giving me a sense of security. I even followed up with her afterward for a vision exam, and found her insight to be helpful. I would highly recommend Dr. G to anybody needing vision services.
Verified patient
Great service, very knowledgeable and she uncovered some issues I had been neglecting so I'm glad I came in! During the short time I was waiting before my appointment I could see the care and attention the staff was giving to the other patients as well, which always makes you feel good.
Verified patient
Pleasant, convenient and professional.
Verified patient
The wait was a little longer than expected, but they apologized and said it was unusual. My visit with the doctor was awesome - she was thorough and explained everything very well. She gave me good advice for how to care for my specific eye needs. I would highly recommend.
Excellent appointment, Dr. Roshandel-Keovan took the time to explain each test and my results and went out of her way to address my concerns!
Verified patient
The wait was a bit long each time I went. They were also pushy about getting me to buy glasses. I also didn't appreciate the doctor trying to say that I should stop taking my psychiatric meds and take vitamins instead. She should stick to her own field.
The wait was longer but understandable as there were a few patients back there, and the staff kept me occupied with their selection of glasses while I waited! Really personable and friendly place, I felt very comfortable there. Not to mention the place was so clean! Doc herself has great bedside manner and was super informative. She didn't spend all that much time on the typical optometrist procedures and spent more time finding out and explaining things to me that I had never even heard of before. I feel like I just received the most comprehensive eye exam I've ever had. Certainly will be back!
Verified patient
This was the best experience I've ever had with an optometrist. I was with my previous doctor for 20 years, so I was initially nervous about switching, but everyone in the office was incredibly helpful. It's the only place I'll return to from now on.
Verified patient
She and her staff are very professional and kind. They were helpful, and went over all the possible options with me. Der Roshandel-Keovan appears to be very knowledgeable in her field, and "knows her stuff" well.
Verified patient
Even though I waited a long time after my scheduled appointment time to see the doc, I was very pleased with the quality of care I received.
Dr. Roshandel-Keovan was very kind and knowledgeable. Unfortunately I had to wait almost an hour and a half after my appointment time to even meet with her. Having to leave my work early to make the appointment, it ended up being a total waste of my time.
Super informative and friendly.
Verified patient
I walked in and was instantly greeted by the girl at the desk. There were a few other patients, all being helped. I filled out my info and maybe waited 2 minutes for her to come and see me. She explained all of the eye tests we were doing, and why they were being done. Something I've never experienced before. I felt truly welcomed to be there. I was very grateful for the time that was taken to explain to me my insurance information along with how they billed. I'm normally so confused, but this time I actually felt like I understood what was going on. :)
Verified patient
Wow..She's awesome.She took her time explaining to me whats going on with my eye.The staff are also very friendly.I highly recommend Belmont eyecare ctr and Dr.Golie.
Dr Golie was very thorough in trying to understand the source of my issue and helped develop a holistic approach to treating the various root causes of the issue. While my wait time was not ideal, based on my experience it seemed to be because she was spending the time needed with each patient instead of rushing to meet a schedule.
Verified patient
Belmont Eye Care is the best. My family has been seeing Dr. Keovan for the past 5 years and each visit has been a positive experience. Her holistic approach and attentive listening allows her to find what works best for each individual patient. The entire staff is very welcoming and treat customers like family. The office is very modern, clean, and there's coffee and tea available. I'd definitely recommend coming here!
Dr. Golie is the best eye doctor that I've ever been to, she looked at the health of my eye. Got me fitted for some great contacts. I highly recommend her! Hands down the best.
Fantastic. Dr. Golie is incredibly knowledgeable & straight forward in her diagnosis, recommendations, & explanations of any issues. Always feel like I learn something new coming here.
Dr. Golie and her staff are extremely welcoming and devoted to their patients! From the moment you walk through the door you feel welcomed & part of the family. Eye exams are very thorough, and Dr. Golie does everything she can to make sure you understand your options and everything needed to care for your eyes! Best eye doctor ever!
We LOVE Dr. Golie! My family and I have been seeing her for several years now. She is professional and knowledgeable, yet warm and friendly. Her staff is great too. Her new location is not only modern, sheek, and in a wonderful area of the city. The office offers coffee and tea to their patients, my family and I highly recommend Dr. Golie and Belmont Eye Care!
I STRONGLY recommend Dr. Goile Roshandel-Keovan to all my friends. I have eyeglass since I was 7 yrs old and had LASIK when I was 21 (13 yrs ago). This is my best experience I've ever had in my life. Dr. Golie is so SMART, detail-oriented and patient. Belmont Eye Care has great various modern facilities. I went there for eye exam, but as my blood sugar was borderline last year, she measured my eye pressure, as well as other digital eye exams. I often have redness, itching, contact lens discomfort and tired eyes and thought these symptoms are caused by external irritants, however I learned that all are because of dry eyes and "Dry eye is a disease" and have treatment. She measured dryness of my eyes by TearTab Osmolarity Test. So quick and precise diagnose! Mine is 328, means at end of moderate range, normal range is 280-300 mOsms/l. She prescribed for it. She also scanned my eyes quickly for health checking of my eyes and their nerves, with a special facility that I have not seen before; not in Chicago, nor in San Diego eye cares. And prescribed supplement for health of my nerves, she even gave me diet tips for absorbing good fats that are necessary for health of eyes. Her staff are professional and polite. Paper works are just digital/online, so simple and quick. All rooms and Space are so clean and nice decorated in orange tone, my fav color. Waiting time was not long, also eyeglass collections were diverse and fortunately tasteful.
