We've been seeing Dr. Black for several years now for basic optemetric exams. He diagnosed me as a candidate for narrow angle glaucoma before anything could manifest, and I had laser surgery to compensate. Highly recommended.

This was my first visit to Dr. Black. I moved to the area from a small town. All of the staff made me feel so comfortable that I didnt feel any anxiety at all. You guys rock!

Staff was rude...speaking of one in particular. I picked some pink frames and when I went to pick them up the man tried to convince me that the frames were not pink that I picked out. The day that I picked my frames, he asked me if my favorite color was pink and I told him yes and have been looking for pink frames. When I showed up to pick them up, the frames were purple. The man had me waiting 25 minutes to give me a refund.

Very professional and friendly. Dr. Black was very helpful and caring. His manner was relaxed and caring. He is my choice for any vision needs I might have in the future.
May 4, 2016Randy T.Verified patient
Dr Black was very professional. He took a picture of my eye and explained what he was looking at. He also showed me my previous eye picture and compared the two. He told me if I noticed any problems or concerns to call him and he is having me follow up to recheck it again,
April 4, 2016Cindy G.Verified patient

The eye exam was fine except there not a lot of frames to choose from and package of lenses and frame was very expensive. I thought it would be less.
