“I recently had the pleasure of visiting Dr. Paul Cinalli at Alvernon Optical, and I can't express enough how positive my experience was. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by a warm and welcoming atmosphere that set the tone for my appointment.
Dr. Cinalli impressively demonstrated his expertise and professionalism throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain each step of my eye examination in detail, making sure I understood not only what he was doing but also the reasoning behind it. His ability to break down complex information into easily digestible terms was incredibly helpful and put my mind at ease.
Moreover, Dr. Cinalli's extensive knowledge in the field was evident as he answered my questions and addressed my concerns with confidence and clarity. He truly care about his patients, and it showed in the way he engaged with me. I left my appointment feeling informed and reassured about my eye health.
Overall, I highly recommend Dr. Paul Cinalli.”

July 1, 2025Jesus G.Verified patient
The Dr. was so nice and knew exactly what I was talking about regarding my issues and concerns. He was very patient with me in the exam room. The office staff was amazing and so friendly, and I could tell they really loved their job and people. The lady who helped me pick out glasses (I am so bad with names), also explained the difference between bifocals and progressive. This was my first pair of glasses, so I didn’t understand the differences. I had a great experience here. I would totally recommend Alvernon Optical on Alvernon and 5th!
