    Why didn't I do this sooner?!? Just had Lasik completed on Thursday at 4pm, the very next morning…read moreI'm seeing 20/15!!! Yup, thats right, better than 20/20! And I had a astigmatism!!! My results are just WOW!!! Lasik Plus in Altamonte Springs made the entire process of getting Lasik super easy. The entire staff is turly knowledgeable about Lasik and PRK. The staff is friendly, welcoming, and genuinely excited for you to experience your results! The office make the entire process easy and streamlined; from consultation to the procedure. In your consultation you learn about Lasik and PRK, meet with your Optometrist to ensure Lasik or PRK is right for you, and answer any questions you may have. If you choose to proceed, map out your payment and schedule your procedure. The procedure, very mild discomfort for less then 5 mins. Whole procedure is done in like 15 mins... 15 mins to clear eyesight! When you leave you are given meds, vitamins, eye drops to aid your healing. After the procedure, go home, take a nap or lay down in a dark room (or wear shades) with music, audio book, or podcast for a few hours. Your eyes will burn and sting but it's tolerable. Just remember you are well on your way to seeing clearly! Thank you Carolina & Jessica (Admin), Stephania Kostakis, O.D (Optometrist), T. Christopher McCurry M.D (Surgeon), and entire staff for making this process so pleasant!!!

    Took my son for his first eye exam, and we had a very pleasant experience at Eye Physicians of…read moreCentral Florida located in Maitland. We were referred to this office by our pediatrician, and I'll admit I was a little nervous since I didn't know what to expect. I wasn't sure how they conducted eye exams on kids under two, and I wasn't sure how my son would react. All the staff members we encountered were kind and clearly communicated the process & next steps. My son has a minor astigmatism in both eyes, so they ended up needing to dilate them first. You can tell their team is well versed in working with children and they had a friendly, calming presence. My son actually did so well and was relaxed the entire time. Didn't even shed a tear. He received the eyedrops with ease and then we had to wait about 20 minutes for his eyes to dilate before seeing the doctor. The test consists of a series of lights and he was actually pretty mesmerized. Ultimately, we left with good news that he won't be needing glasses right away, and we'll come back again in 6 months to see if there's been any improvement. The cost (even with insurance) was the major bummer. They can't tell you how much it's going to be upfront because it depends on what tests they end up needing to do. So $300 later, this was an expensive preventative measure.

    I've been here 2 times and though the staff is very nice and knowledgeable, I wish my daughter's…read moredoctor would change our referral to a different location. To start, the wait times after you check in are awful. I should not have to wait more than 10 minutes after my scheduled time to be seen by a person. We've had to wait at least 20 minutes each time. Secondly, the waiting area is crowded and kind of dirty and run down. The seats have rips and cracks that will tear up the back of your legs if you dare to wear shorts to your appointment. The seats are arranged in corners so you will be knee to knee with another person if there are a lot of people in the room. The carpet looked like it needed a vacuum. There were white pieces of paper all over the floor. My daughter had to enter a few different rooms for her evaluation and 2 of the 4 spaces looked like storage closets. One had tables and a painting shoved in a corner. Another had a desk and a printer just lying on the carpet. It was just all very icky, messy, and dirty. New waiting area furniture and perhaps curtains to hide the equipment strewn about the office would help.

Her friendly, talented, and efficient staff always make you feel welcome and appreciated, but most importantly provide effective examinations on their state-of-the-art equipment all right there in the office. Dr. Chriss has recently performed ReLACS surgery on my right eye and will be operating the same on my left eye in two days. I am completely satisfied and have every confidence in successful outcome. My sister has had successful cataract surgery from Dr. Chriss and shares the same confidence from her experience.

The wait was minimal and I was in and out of the office in less than an hour. Everyone form the front office to Dr. Chriss was helpful and understanding. I had to call to reschedule my follow up and again, it was no problem and I was able to get in a few days later. They also have an optical service in house so I have switched to their office instead of popping in to see whatever doctor happens to be at Lencrafters.

    our regular eye doctors highly recommended Magruder's and Dr Shumski. There's a review on Yelp from…read moreAnonymous T., Orlando, Fl on Nov 7, 2024, says EXACTLY what I experienced with Magruder's. Excellent care from making the initial appointment to follow-up visit. I opted for the laser cataract removal and multifocal correction and I was able to do both eyes at the same time, which was fantastic! I could see clearly immediately!!! Everyone says, "why did I wait so long to have the surgery?" JUST DO IT!!! After my initial visit, I ran into a friend of mine, who was in the waiting area for a follow up appointment. She had her cataracts and lenses done and THAT eased my anxiety, I KNEW I MADE THE RIGHT CHOICE!!! Thank you Dr. Shumski and Dr Calloway and ALL the staff, you're all GREAT! I can see clearly now, the clouds are gone......

    I gave this office a one star Due to the management company. The physicians and support staff are…read moregreat ,,,,but the fact that there are not enough employees and over scheduling this is not a safe or efficient office. Everytime I went I would spend 5 to 6 hours sitting and waiting. The check in waiting room waiting room has at least 50 people waiting to check in.waited 45 mins to check in for my appointment ,,,then directed to the actual waiting room with even more people waiting. Most of the clients were very old and many had difficulty walking...there was no water or coffee..no food and we all sat and waited to be called. Once called we would see staff for 15 mins and doctor for about 5..as an example my final visit I had an 11:00 am appt and left at 3:30. This was typical of every one of my visits. The reason for long wait was management who hires and sets quota. The staff is great..but overworked...I had my surgery and follow-ups and each appt was like this. I am so happy to never return. But my concern is to have so many elderly and non English people waiting with no food or water Or any idea how long they will sit unt being seen. Guess money does rule all . My suggestion...hire more staff and schedule fewer people each day.

The technician who did the preliminary check-in (Tara?) was very friendly and made me feel at ease as we went through the routine tests. When Dr. Straughn came in she was very thorough in explaining my options and even gave me some things to think about in the future for sunglasses. When I sat after my exam with Frank to pick out my glasses he was very helpful in helping me make a selection that was not only comfortable but also afforable and looked good on my face. Emily was also great! I booked my appointment completely online and the entire process from start to finish was positive and couldn't have been any easier. There was ample parking behind the building, and the waiting room is separate from the show room which made the process of selecting frames stress free.

    Mixed review: Optometrist is personable and professional,…read moreand the eye exam part I have few issues with, other than I'm annoyed that a retina scan (not covered by insurance) is now mandatory - seems like a cash grab to pay for an expensive machine, and I'd prefer the option to do the retina scan every few years. Because of this it's a 4/5. Frame boutique: I actually chose this practice specifically because they sell Silhouette frames, but they are extremely expensive, and somehow even a worse deal if you just need replacement lenses? I was told "our coatings are SO much better than you can get elsewhere". Ok I said, but less than 2 years after my lenses were replaced in August 2024, all the anti reflective coating was wearing off all around the rims of both lenses?! There is a 2 year warranty, but from the original date of purchase (not date of replacement, apparently). I think I'll be buying my glasses from Costco from now on for 1/4 the cost. My coatings have never worn off from anything I bought there (or that I bought 10 years ago in Miami for that matter). I do not have faith in the the lab WPEA uses.
