I chose NW eye surgeons for my recent cataract surgery May 2026…read more My initial consultation and post-op follow up was at the Smokey Point Clinic in Arlington. The surgery itself was in Mt Vernon. The Smokey Point office has wonderful approachable staff. The exam process is similar to what you're already used to from the optometrist who referred you. There are technicians examining eyes. Your surgeon also will conduct some exams and interview you. At this point you will decide if surgery is for you, and if yes, choose your lenses. Your surgeon and staff will answer any questions you may have. By surgery day you'll be well prepared. Surgery itself only takes 15 min. However, there is prep, such as IV starting, connecting to monitor, mild sedation, that will add to that time. Surgery itself is not painful at all. You'll be leaving with a see through eye patch. Your clear vision will return as soon as the effect of the drops wear off that dilate your pupils. It likely will take several hours. You'll be home resting by then. You will go home with instructions and a dedicated emergency number to call should you need it. Your biggest challenge will be eye drop management. If you can, pay out of pocket for combination drops. (About $70). My surgeon was Dr Kuzin. He has picked a great team to work with. Dr Eden did my post-op exams. Throughout my treatment I felt well taken care of. My outcome is excellent. I suggest viewing some videos on cataract surgery and selection of lenses prior to your first appointment. You can find them on the NW Eye surgeons website or on YouTube. I'm a retired critical care nurse. I highly recommend Dr Kuzin and team!

They really don't tell you what options you have in terms of glasses, what are the add-ons, even the thickness of the glasses was not brought up when I was ordering and they turned out to be super thick, when I asked if they could be made thinner (and lighter) they said oh yes that is an option but it would cost more. Also I paid for two pairs of glasses (very expensive by the way) and then I had to come back to o fix one of the pair of glasses and they don't keep your billing information so you have to repeat the whole process. Not a great experience. I had gone there about ten years ago and it was great, not sure about now.

Let me start by saying I've worked as an optician for over four years in multiple clinics, and as a…read moreconsumer I never write reviews, good or bad. But after this experience, I felt I had to warn others. In August of this year, my aunt and uncle chose this clinic because it was close to home, in-network with their insurance, and had good reviews. Unfortunately, our experience was the complete opposite. When I first asked my aunt about her glasses she said both pairs of glasses purchased are uncomfortable, and heavy. It wasn't until after that she also told me they were not clear, vision wise. She's gone back to wearing her old pair just to see properly, and to not have any pain when wearing the glasses. When I called to ask about a reframe or return, the optician, Gregg, was dismissive and condescending. He immediately said no to both, and when I tried explaining the situation, he interrupted and spoke to me as if I didn't know what I was talking about, granted I didn't tell him I was an optician, but if this is the way he's speaking to patients/ family members, I don't think it would have mattered if he knew I was one. As someone who has worked in this field, I know an optician should help patients choose frames that fit their prescription and are compatible with their lenses--not just let them figure it out on their own. Gregg didn't guide my aunt at all; he sat there quietly and only spoke when approached. When I asked and explained that the frames are uncomfortable, he said, "Those are the frames that SHE chose, that SHE wanted." And yes, that's true, but if you do your job properly and inform patients about how certain frames might not work well with their prescription, or how they will fit on a patients face, they're more likely to choose something that functions better rather than just what looks nice. And if after explaining all that, the patient goes with the frame regardless of recommendation, then yes that is on the patient. This is not how it happened that day though. After being told no on a reframe, I asked about a re-lens. I explained that my aunt couldn't see clearly through her new glasses and had gone back to her old pair, and he interrupted to "correct" me by saying, "Oh, you mean they're uncomfortable and not clear." I clarified, "No, I mean her vision isn't clear at all when wearing the new glasses, on top of the frames being uncomfortable." He then replied, "Now we're just getting into wanting new lenses or new frames." To make matters worse, the clinic's 60-day policy for prescription changes starts from the exam date, not from when the glasses are actually received. My aunt's exam was at the beginning of August, but her glasses didn't even arrive back from the lab until two weeks later. That's hardly fair to patients, especially when it can take about a month to adjust to new lenses or find the time to return for a follow-up--especially if you work the graveyard shift. I also called the insurance provider, who confirmed that if the clinic were willing to accept a return, they could re-bill the insurance for a new pair of glasses. The VSP rep told me that they paid the clinic about $600 for the two pairs of glasses (#1 was 300 and the second pair was $280 with a $20 patient copay). Gregg, again being condescending said "well that's just not true. If you would like to get into that they only paid bout $100 per pair and the rest was to be covered by the clinic as a write off". Despite that, Gregg still said no, without any attempt to help or find a solution. Even if policies exist, there is a professional and respectful way to communicate them, and this clinic failed at both. Again, I never leave reviews, but this was such a disappointing experience that I had to share. I do not recommend Eye Doctors of Marysville. Save yourself the frustration and go somewhere that truly cares about patient comfort and vision, versus just getting paid (or not paid, I guess, according to Gregg) by the insurance providers/patients.

They checked the Rx and the lab had made a mistake. When the second set of lenses came in, they weren't quite right either. Same comment from the optician. I came back. They checked my eyes and the lenses and said they'd fix them but "if they're still not right you'll have to pay fr any changes". Excuse me? You're the eye doctors; it's up to you ad the lab to get the Rx right for my eyes. I'm over 60 and have been wearing glasses since I was 7. I know when my lenses aren't right. The 3rd time was the charm and the lenses were right but I haven't been back since.
