I was not a patient but I called with an eye problem that was terrifying to me. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The receptionist put Dr. Opatowsky on the phone within about a minute.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]He asked me to describe the issue and after I did so, he said they were booked but come in at 2:00 pm and they would squeeze me in.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I was taken to a room within 10 minutes of arrival and the tech dilated my eyes. The Dr. came in shortly thereafter. His demeanor is very easy going yet reassuring. I already felt better. [[HIGHLIGHT]]He was so personable but not overly so. Very easy to talk with.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] After completing a scan of my eyes he told me the condition was temporary, a side effect of a round of steriods I completed the day prior and would go away within a few weeks or less. What a relief. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The Dr. and staff made me feel like family and took great care of me.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They were all very professional yet very personable. Additionally, they accepted my insurance with the normal copay and no additional charges. I will definitely return for annual checkups. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Everything went well the staff and the doctor were all very patient and informative.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]].

Very well run comprehensive. Not just an optometrist- normal eye care and takes care of the standard glasses, contacts type stuff - but also, one of the few Ophthalmologist in the Antelope Valley. Last year, an accident destroyed my vision in my right eye-- after emergency surgery and a couple days at UCLA medical center, I needed a local ophthalmologist and found out they were few and far between. After over an hour in a waiting room in Ridgecrest, I was told I'd be there another 6+ hours- they were that unprofessional. I left Ridgecrest very frustrated and found Dr. Optowski. I'm very glad I found these people. Very professional, well run, clean and very well decorated office; All throughout the office are photos of some of the amazing aviation the AV is known for- starting with a mind blowing photo of an SR71 signed by many of the ground and flight crews of this Skunk Works marvel. Highly recommended, these people really are top notch, a credit to their profession. read more

NO PAIN or stress and I am now 20/20 5 days following surgery. Awesome! read more

Very knowledgeable Medical Eye Doctor in the Antelope Valley. As you get older you realize your vision isn't what it used to be to be. After a thorough examination. Turns I could use glasses for driving at night. But since I don't go out driving at night, I save a couple bucks! read more

Awesome and friendly staff! Exceptional care! Very clean and welcoming environment. We love AV Eye Care!

When you visit the "Main Office" instead of the local one you expect a different experience - there'll be more people with fewer chances to chat about your concerns and less time spent with the Doctor . . . And every year the same smiling faces and soothing chats are there and the old friends who travelled to your town greet you. Admittedly, there's lots of equipment and questions, and you don't know all the staff, but the cozy comfort of a place like this means a lot - especially to those of us "seniors". All this, plus the chance to do some "City Shopping" makes the annual trek a highlight of the season. read more

This team is exceptional! Dr. Opatowsky is attentive and thorough. ....................................

Had been here a few times and had to move on. My new eye doc found 2 major issues with my right eye that were just overlooked. One will require a cornea transplant. Real happy now.... read more

The office is beautiful, his staff is very pleasant. I made my appointment with Dr. Opatowsky based on a friend's high recommendation. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Even though my appointment was with Dr O, I never saw him or met him. I was treated by an optometrist.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] She was very nice but [[HIGHLIGHT]]it felt like bait and switch. I felt I should have been told this when I made my appointment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I thought maybe it was a fluke that this happened but the same thing happened to my friend.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] He was told that Dr O only comes in if there is a problem. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We should have been told this when we made our appointments. We now have to find another ophthalmologist who has the time to keep his appointments.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Very professional...you know your in the right place as soon as they start helping you.

Always great care. Dr. O and his staff are always willing to help in a pleasant way. read more
